Single Mom Fights Downward Spiral by Finishing Strong

Single Mom Fights Downward Spiral by Finishing Strong

I've felt so beat up over the past 6 months. I'm a divorced, single mother with one adult son and one teenage son (high school freshman) at home. My entire first floor of my house has been completely flooded twice. I lost my entire floor and part of the walls. Living on cement floor now. My bathroom has been gutted because it's falling apart and has taken months to finish. The small remaining bathroom has kept us all right, but has also had problems. I've been terribly sick twice and missed work both times. Workload has been unconscionably heavy over 4 of these 6 months. My boss is finally hiring 2 more people. I've had a root canal and a chipped tooth. I lost my camera with all my picture disks in the bag. So lucky, finally found 2 weeks later and all returned! My boyfriend is going through terrible financial problems and no work in his construction field. My 92 year old mother who is very happy and still independent is being pressured by my oldest sister to move into assisted living near her which is a move from northern California to southern California. My mom is not ready for that and feels stressed. I have many blessings, so many, but feel like I'm in a downward spiral that's out of my control and I can't get out of it. I accidentally discovered Drew Brees' book from Sean Payton's book and I was so inspired by that. I'm trying to put that to work in my life. And now I've discovered Finish Strong from Drew. I want to put this to work in my life. Positive Energy! Finish Strong on this journey!
