OH SO STRESSED!!!!!!
so my childcare got canceled because I owe her $800 dollars now. I can't go to school or work because I have no one to watch my son and I have No idea what to do. The state canceled paying for my childcare because they don't consider that I go to school. Which I really don't understand!! I have to work at least 16 hours a week for them to pay half of my childcare. And with the job that I work I wasn't making those hours. My daycare provider has been so great to help me and work with me but I couldn't catch up. So the bill ended up being $1256.00. My ex-husband has been very nice and paid $400 of it and has promised to help pay more but that could take a month to do. I don't know what I'm going to do and I'm so stressed about it. I don't understand why the state doesn't give more help to single mom's trying to go to school and work and take care of a baby. The don't look at the situation all they look at is numbers.
I think it's ridiculous because not only have I been reprimanded for being a single mom but I have also been called so many names. People judge me and what they think has happened in my life just by looking at me. I was once told by someone at work that they thought that I was just another irresponsible slut with a baby because I have a tattoo and nose ring. they didn't know I was getting divorced or in an abusive relationship. They just assumed because I wasn't the "typical" twenty year old here that I was an awful person. And that wasn't the first time it has happened. I don't know what it's like to be a single mom in other cities or states but I do know that here of your not they "normal" married when your 18 and popping out babies pretending to be happy and pretending to be someone you don't want to be, then you don't belong. I'm not going to give up though I will finish my education and I will give my son what he needs, I'm used to going with out and that won't change anytime soon. I can do this.......Right?

So me and my son have a genetic disease called epidermislisisbalosa and we get blisters on our feet really easy. I don't understand why my son will let me pop his blisters but won't let me cut his fingernails without flipping out. lol any ideas how to cut his nails without him freaking out? and he's a light sleeper so i can't do it in his sleep.
