A Hard Pill To Swallow
I remember when I had Brady and Tad and I moved back to Porter Co how excited I was. I had this perfect picture of what being a mom meant; Brady was going to meet so many new friends and those friends mom would then in turn become my friends. You know what happens when you assume? You make an ass out of yourself. Is it because I'm a solo parent? What about me makes forget everyone to invite me to anything, or even just talk to me. Last year my oven caught on fire.. ON FIRE. I was having friends over for a sleepover and my oven caught fire, it was crazy. While the fire department is here assessing everything, two parents show up - THE FIRE ENGINES ARE STILL OUTSIDE MY HOUSE. No one offered help, I'm in the middle of tears and trying to laugh away this traumatic situation I just went through and no one offers to help, no one asks "hey, want us to take Brady to our house for a bit?" And guess what, they left their kids here and that was it. I was probably never anothe...
