5 Things Every Divorced Mother Should Know

More so, *recently divorced mother. This month week, on B-Metro:

5. You Will Be Surprised 
At some point, you will realize that it’s really not that much harder to do a lot of things, but the few things that do stress you out REALLY stress you out. For instance – groceries.
It was freezing cold, raining and I was out of basically every essential item required by my carnivorous and bottomless boys. So in the frigid monsoon, I packed up 2 children and did the “run as fast as you possibly can through the parking lot, only to be slowed by the short-legged offspring you must protect” thing. Soaked.
Spent a ton of money only to haul said children through said freezing rain (IT WAS A FRIGGIN HURRICANE OF COLD), with a cart full of groceries to my car and unload/reload/rebuckle/etc.
Then came getting them from the parking lot, a horrible space, into my apartment ON MY OWN.

 

4. Your Toilet Will Need Less Attention
Men are so gross. Grown men, actually, seem to be more gross than tiny child-men. I find that my toilet hates me less, stays clean longer and my grout is not “off-white”.
Again – men are so gross.
