I’m Not Cut Out For This Shit

Posted on October 29, 2014 Written by Tonya

One of the goals I set for myself this year was to submit my writing to different Web sites to gain some greater exposure and I finally, not only found the time to write a post that I felt was worthy of one of those sites, but actually submitted one.

Eek!

Lo and behold, it was accepted.

I am very honored to be featured on Scary Mommy today with a post I wrote called, I’m Not Cut Out For This Shit about a day when motherhood was seriously kicking my ass. It’s real and raw and I would be ever so grateful if you would read it.

I love and respect Jill Smokler (Scary Mommy) and the community of anything but perfect parents she has brought together through her Web site and books and I am beyond thrilled to see my words on her site.

There is nothing more powerful than the “me too” factor, so if you’re a mom I hope you’ll be able to identify with my post.

    I just read it and came by to say I love it!

    Don’t read the comments over there EVER – because I know from experience there will always be one or two or ten hundred meanies. 😉

    But I am sharing this with my friends on FB because I think we ALL need to see these words and know we’re not alone when we have these kinds of days. xo
