Saying it here cause I can't say it outloud

I have devoted my life into being a wife and a mother
I regret nothing but it does leave heartache in some ways
Recently I tried to break back into the job field. Oof girls this one's been filled with disappointment. I cant find anything over minimum wage. Quickly realized I had no job skills. I had been carrying my husband's dreams. My kids needs. And now I feel like im looking across a lake i have to swim.

What about taking a medical billing and coding class online and getting a certificate in that and trying to get into that field? I know a lot of people that have done it and work at home and make decent money.

It is time to take online classes for jobs skills. I was in the banking sector and didn’t like the sector at all. I took Google Career with Coursera classes for data analysis. I got my career certificates and found a WFH job in pricing with a global manufacturing company.

I just have to get this out here somewhere I’m soooo sick of people getting within a few miles of class consciousness and collective liberation and then taking a hard left and scapegoating Jewish people instead, or trans people

Or black people or women or whatever group the rotating arrow of right wing scapegoats lands on next. No, candace Owen’s, Tucker Carson, Marjorie Taylor green, nick fuentes etc are not waking up they are GRIFTING. And if your anti colonialism starts and ends with Israel but you glaze people who tout the great replacement theory and the “america first” agenda that’s literally white Christian nationalism you’re not anti ethno state you’re just confused and highly gullible. Make linking all human rights and liberation the litmus test I beg of you

Is sex with your partner as hot and passionate now as it was when you first started dating?

Going back to work

My maternity pay is about to stop and I just can’t bring myself to go back to work! I am self employed so no rush back but we need the money.

I have postnatal anxiety and can’t leave my baby for more than an hour never mind with someone else other than my mum.

My mum works shifts which change every week so I can’t commit to anything. Does anyone know what type of job I could do without pushing my boundaries too much?

Noob question about re-entering society

Hi, very very basic q from anxious about to be first mum. When did you feel up to going out to socialise after the baby or even just out for a coffee? How soon were you getting back into the world?
