Social Media’s not That Social Anymore

Social media’s not for the gentlefolks. If you have a trending idea or following, then you might survive for the first 60 to 90 days. However, if you’re like me, inconsistent, transparent, and authentic, then stay away from it for all costs (unless you’re selling something online).

Their r/Mommit section is harsh!

Depending on how and what you type, this subcategory or feed or whatever is super harsh. I went to somewhat open up about being a homeschooling mom who works from home full-time, working five other jobs on the side (it’s all surrounding content creation as a blogger, so calm down guys), and homeschool full time on my off days.

Look, guys…

I’m tired, exhausted, and trying to get organized. Plus, I’m still working on balancing my schedule, so I have more time to accept my grief and also process what I’m doing and how else to help support this family.

After opening up, majority of those users (except for one that suggested a good book to read) weren’t okay. Yeah, they were blunt, but even providing some more detail about the issue, it didn’t…
