Vent overload guys ...

I'm going to lose my mind.
I'm going to be working today for my 11th day in a row..
Today was supposed to be my day off , but right now at ONE of my jobs we only have 3 staff members.
The girl who was supoosed to work this monring called last night to let me know she couldnt ome in because of the weather she does it all the time , funny thing is it was snowing bad last night but it's fine today ... and really I have to travel just as far as her to get there.
I obviouslt didn't have enough notice to get a sitter this morning so my boss is in this morning and I'll be going in this afternoon , I'm sooo mad I had so much to do today , and now I don't have another day off until next thursday!
I miss my daughter... I feel like I'm abandoning her all the time,
I have so much going on with all my legal stuff my that whole thing that went down with my ex.
I'm working two jobs.
I can't keep up and I feel I'm missing out on my daughters life.


Somebody ... Anybody just come take me and Bella away from it all for the day!
Please!

I'm sorry you are going through this. You should pat yourself on the back, because you are working hard to provide a good life for your baby girl.
Could you ask the girl who called out today to switch a day for you? Maybe if you talk to your boss he/she will get you a day off.

((HUGS))

Thanks guys!
(most definately need some hugs!)

You guys actually get it! A lot of people say I have too much on my plate, but they don't know... I want to give my daugther everything and do the very best for us... It all just catches up to you at some point, I know I'll be okay though.
She probably won't cover for me , ever. but that's okay , my way of thinking if you give up your shift whatever, but don't expect one of mine back , more hours for me lol not the best but it does mean more money in the bank!
I have no problem switchign shifts with people, within reason ... just give me some notice!
anywyas thanks again guys!

Oh and Bridget...
*starts to sing*
Allll my bags are packed
Im ready to go....

sorry you made me think of that song.
somebody paint a big ol' L on my forehead Smile

I'll warn you that when your daughter is old enough she will lay a big thick guilt trip on you. "but mommy, I missssssssssss you Sad ", but there will be a day that she will understand.
You do have a lot on your plate, but some people are just made to handle that kind of thing and others are not.

If someone didn't cover for me...I would never cover for them. You rub my back and I'll rub yours.

Good luck and rest when you can

I know I'm so dreading that day!
But honestly , somedays I think it hurts more that she doesn't get upset when I leave , but I know it's better for her that way.
