Reflections of a Single Mother
It’s a busy hectic work day as usual
around my office (my kitchen table/will explain laterJ). Youngest daughter needs
money for food before basketball game. Cell phone blowing up, email inbox
pinging me. Lingering thoughts about the
conversation (argument) that I had with my older daughter last night. Trying my
best to get through this yoga workout before anyone realizes I’m not actually online
working yet… Workout finished, now trying to blend a smoothie and load a pod in
the Kuerig® to make a cup of coffee at the same damn time. Email pings again,
bang out quick response. Multi-tasking
at its best… wait cellphone chirps and vibrates simultaneously… special
notification set up to let me know my daughter needs me. I stop everything I’m doing to read her
message, you know because everything she does is the most important thing that
I have going on…let her tell it.
