00:06:22.860
birthday morning yesterday and it's okay the reality of being a divorced mom if you're thinking
00:06:27.540
about divorcing your spouse as a parent this is something you have to think of fought really hard
00:06:32.100
in my divorce hard like i did not let it go that if we're gonna split christmas in half we're
00:06:37.500
splitting birthdays in half i'm not gonna go every other year not seeing my son on his birthday and
00:06:41.780
this is how i made it okay i had his birthday party yesterday was saturday on his birthday
00:06:47.260
big birthday party all of his friends way too many people in my house was the best distraction
00:06:52.240
ever by planning his birthday on the day so all morning all day i was busy busy busy busy busy
00:06:57.940
i facetimed him best birthday ever and then tomorrow you guys tomorrow we're doing a birthday
00:07:03.860
day celebration it's i should call it his due date celebration he was due may 18th he was born
1.00
00:07:08.320
i don't know these women sound so evil like it doesn't even it almost seems like the point of
0.77
00:07:13.220
this video is to talk about how awesome of a mother she is not how awesome the kid is because
00:07:18.760
we were so busy with this party it was so much fun he was so tired from his birthday so we're
00:07:23.360
gonna have like his regular birthday celebration first and second birthday we went to the pool and
00:07:27.020
we went to build a bear so we're doing that tomorrow and we're also going to the zoo and
00:07:30.940
then we're gonna go see his little best friend because her mom let me borrow a bunch of stuff
00:07:34.500
at the party so i want you guys to know if you're getting divorced prepare for this if you want to
00:07:41.040
divorced prepare for this but as it sounds worse than it was i had a fabulous day i missed my son
00:07:48.800
but i was happy that he was happy he was gonna have the best time ever at his birthday party
00:07:53.200
this morning he woke up asking mama can i have my priority again and i was like no
00:08:01.360
okay let's see let's see this one like loneliness oh no the music oh no how
0.69
00:08:07.840
fucking lonely it is being a single mom wasn't it the consequences of your own actions it gets so
0.63
00:08:13.520
lonely you know imagine being the dad being like hey he like has his new girlfriend 10 years younger
0.99
00:08:19.440
constantly in that state where you're just like mother in you is so fulfilled but the woman in
00:08:24.560
you is lonely going down the route of dating and bringing man into child's life is questionable
00:08:31.440
for me i have to base it on a number of different things i guess it's just easier to just be on my
00:08:36.960
own with my daughter loneliness is debilitating and it's crippling and it's really hard where
00:08:41.600
i'm living at the moment i don't have any family here either i've got a really good set of friends
00:08:46.880
but they're all partnered up so the loneliness can just be debilitating because then it leads
00:08:51.440
on to the guilt why am i feeling guilty because i'm lonely like i've got my kid i shouldn't
00:08:56.080
but as i said the woman is lonely and look at the positives because at the end of the day
00:09:01.280
got a healthy beautiful daughter we have a beautiful lifestyle we live in australia we live
00:09:07.120
yeah that's the cope the cope that they don't need a man anyways let's keep going
0.58
00:09:14.480
that no one is coming to save me no one someone will come to save her she's cute enough not that
00:09:20.960
keep it cute enough someone will do it um it could be your dad or brother but somebody's gonna do it
00:09:25.680
people aren't quite talking to us about what it's like to be a single mother
00:09:30.960
i'm going to take it to you you have to do all of the things that a two-person household would
00:09:36.080
have to do that means you're going to manage the household you're going to do all of the outdoor
00:09:40.000
stuff currently i need to finish cutting my grass the rain has not allowed it i have a
00:09:44.080
store and shed that i have to build myself i've never done that before put it up myself
00:09:49.760
i have a pool that i got as a free sample that i've got to get up i've had it for a month
00:09:54.480
nobody is going to save me not to mention all of the content that you have to create when you
00:10:00.000
literally just want to put yourself like in a little closet and shut the door but you have
00:10:05.280
just catastrophizing chores so that's what we're meant to put it all out there for everybody
00:10:10.240
to see nobody gets it unless you do clothes that you have to wash the house that you have to
00:10:16.560
maintain my house is total rent i've been in like a lupus flare for like two weeks straight
00:10:21.040
