next entry: Spontaneous Vacation!

Migrated from OD

10/20/2010

I'm a former OD member, but I've realized like many I've been having diary withdrawals!

After browsing this site without an account, I've decided to finally make one since I like the environment and I've found several diaries I like.

I put a little about me on my front page, but here's a little bit more.

I've been a single mom for 10 years. I found out that being with a man doesn't make you a better mother, doesn't make you a better family. Being a single mom has made me stronger and made me realize that I don't need to depend on anyone but myself. I did get pregnant at a very young age. I had my daughter a few months after I turned 14. (long story) I am 24 years old now. I've been a constant working mom for 10 years. For 2 years 14-16 I did babysitting jobs. I also stayed in school and graduated. When I turned 16 I got a part-time job as a waitress. When I got done with school I went full time, I kept that job until I was almost 19. I lived with my parents for 4 years, but I was completely dependent on my money the whole time. I didn't have any assistance from any state funds.

I got our first apartment when I turned 18 with all the money I saved. We had 12 month lease and had to find a more permanent place. Sherri was about to turn 5 when I finally found my new job as a junior apprentice photographer, we moved into our second and current apartment. It's a 2 bedroom apartment in a nice county location. It's about 10 miles from the city and my office. I'm now doing photography work for this company full time and I love it. My little girl is in 5th grade and she's doing really well in school.

I've been having baby blues. I've been thinking about artificial insemination. I've been very content raising my child on my own. And it just being me and her we've done well financially. She's also been wanting a little brother or sister. It just makes me sad that I can't give her the family she wants on my own. But it's still a thinking process. Does anyone have any comments on that? Do you know anyone "single" whose been artificially inseminated? I've been trying to find a focus group near my city, but no luck.

Well that's all I have for my first entry! I'm hoping this community is just as good as OD.

Welcome to Bloop. On the artificial insemination thing, my advice would be to wait. You're only 24. You may well meet a man in the future and want to have a baby with him in the future. In between times have you considered fostering?
