Quoting lovingwifey:
I'm the same as you. Lol. I guess I could add going to school. Lol
Quoting TummyTurner:
Me! I totally would! I don't have much to contribute. I guess I could talk about the surrogacy or life with twins?
lol, I could NEVER be a nurse! I thought about it for a whole minute. Needles scare me. (yet, I have a tattoo figures lol) I am going for Criminal Justice. I plan to be a Police Officer when I graduate. I was a Sgt in the Army, so that will definitely help. Then once my husband gets out of the Army (9 more years) We are going to apply for Border Patrol. Everyone is shocked when the get to know me. Everyone thinks I am a uppity house wife. lol. Far from it. I have 12 classes left until I graduate with my Bachelors.

I don't know who I'd nominate...but here's what I do....
My mom was a nurse, but I don't have the patience for this. I'm a personal assistant for a Johnny Depp impersonator who has his own career that will be looked at by reality TV soon....so in the meantime, I just bide my time taking care of my 19 year old son who has mental health issues, my 12 year old son who is in Scouts and is a deacon in the church where we go. I get no help from the oldest's dad because he's deceased. I get no help from the youngest's dad because he is living with a woman who is a child molester...so I don't let him come around when she's with him. (I do get a small child support check once a month though, but it has to be garnished out.)
I manage a small urban farm...with a flock of 23 chickens and three ducks...we're a typical Mormon family except no adult male in the house. Doing stuff with the church, my youngest is in the scouting program, etc...
Until the boss's projects get started, I manage to keep the bills paid and the kids and flock fed on around $1100 a month. I make every dollar stretch and have been bashed a lot for my food choices on here but you know what? My kids at least have stuff to eat...and that's ultimately all that matters.
My mom died two years ago and my family stuck me with the funeral bill and won't help me pay it...my brother acts like a total asshole to me and everyone else but I told him yesterday being on a pity party and shutting out those he was closest to won't bring her back....I was close to her but have not shed one tear. It's not that I am an uncaring bitch or anything either, I just know she's not suffering, she's in the spirit world waiting and that's that...
So, I've done all I do without anybody's help. Not that it wasn't a struggle to get it all adjusted and figured out. But other than her funeral and a few bank overdrafts to cover a bit at a time I am now debt free...and things are slowly getting better. I'm considering at the age of 40 to go back to school and study to be an archaeologist. I never went to college because I really didn't know until now what I really wanted to do and then all this husband and children put that on the back burner but gave me time to think it through.
Other than my kids I want absolutely nothing to do with any of my family...but I guarantee once the boss gets his big break they'll not waste any time to hold their hands out and suck up. And I'll be forced to be all tough love, tough shit with them, and have to tell them they didn't support me or reach out to me when I was down and did nothing but kick me when I was down...
And NO I do not want to be on an episode of this show...I have my fill of the entertainment business just doing what I do for my boss. I take a humble approach to it...I'm just a glorified gopher...lol...it's just a job to me same as any other mom who has a job uses her job as a means to make ends meet.

Quoting britt6:I am not sure about anyone in particular but it sure would be nice to see some of the women that claim to be so perfect along side some of the women who are lets just say "far from perfect."
I am far from perfect myself, LOL! In fact I'd say I'm a hot mess but at least we're happy. Super pickle is a good one!
Quoting alwayskk:
I can be in the latter category lol. Superpickle gets my vote.
