Why can’t chunky woman be fabulous too? I am a single mom of 4. Domestic violence victim. My son’s dad passed of cancer.

For the first time in my life I’m in complete control of my whole life. My finances. My friends. Where I go. What I buy. It shouldn’t have taken me this long to realize I can walk away from abuse and do what I want. The feeling of paying for groceries without scared of decline because I didn’t have control of my finances. The feeling of getting away on a girls trip to Mexico and buying my first home not worrying if I can pay for it.
How do you stay fabulous?It’s a struggle to maintain my mental health but I do it going to counseling every week and regularly seeing the same physician to get the right meds. I work hard 12 hour night shifts to keep new babies alive. While also trying to keep alive my 22, 22, 28, and 6 year olds lives. The only help I get from any man is my dad. He watches my 6 y old when I work. And he fixes whatever I do to get the garbage disposal stuck. The best way to stay fabulous is to keep breathing. Stay alive.
What would you do with the $40,000?I know I need it to help pay my bills. Which I will. But honestly I need a dam good vacation. And my parents need a vacation too because they are the only reason I can work. Without them I’d have no childcare. I’d have no job. My parents need a break from me too. They are helping raise my 6 year old whose father passed of cancer. So it would benefit my whole family. I just found out I’m going to be a grandma!! I need a vacation! Also I need to renovate my bathroom. Thank You Love
