DD is 9 months old. I've been a single parent since she was a few weeks old, ExH found himself a younger model and has no contact with her. Embroiled in a maintenance battle but that's another story.
I recently went back to work. Had to leave my old job because it wasn't family friendly so found evening work. I'm lucky that DM is around to help with childcare as I haven't been able to afford nursery yet.
Very exciting day today. Payday! I knew it wouldn't be spectacular but I didn't think it would be this bad. I have worked myself into the ground. 2am finishes, no sleep, no food. For what? A tiny amount of money while ex refuses to pay any maintenance. I can't carry on like this. Christmas! How do I pay for that?! Thank God she's only 9 months and doesn't know the difference.
Someone please remind me why I'm working myself into the ground. Please.
