I struggled with being a single mom, but I made it work. I don't know if I've had the blessing of dumb luck, but it can be done. Oh dear, I'm rambling all over the place, sorry.

I guess I am just blessed with having productive kids that want to make something of themselves. I spent my life raising my kids and now it's time for me, me, me. Boom!
