best advice..

Published on by ☆ Emma Santorini ☆2 Comments

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?

well.. best advice I have ever gotten was from my mother who told me and my siblings growing up “always stand alone with your name on contracts for apartments etc”. with that she meant to never co-sign it with your partner unless it’s about a house, loan and mortgage (if been together for years)

My mom was always scared for us girls (we are 4 sisters and 1 brother) with everything from school to the partners in life we would have. She said this advice to us so we would never become homeless if we ever moved together with our partner.

Our mom also said the same advice but also added sometimes things.. like “if you have kid/s with the partner, you and the kids are protected and have roof over your head”. Which is true.

how about you? Best advice?

this advice may sound weird but I think she got a point. If you break up with your partner you are protected to have a home. 

Rough day, both emotionally and mentally

wow an other day is over. Today I have been struggling with my emotions. It has been a rough day. Both mentally and emotionally.

The day started by getting my son ready for school and into the schoolbus.  After that, I ran to the laundry room (forgot to wash MY clothes lol!) and unfortunately it was taken by I explained and the woman let me use one of the machine and dryer! Thank you neighbor 💕

Meeting with E’s doctor. He has grown but also lost weight which is really good. Yay! Routine check up. Happy. And the doctor was so impressed that E laid all letters in alphabetical order and said the letter. Woho.

School for me afterwards which is where my emotions took over. Out of no where. It’s silly. But anyhow, the teacher told me to skip the rest of the textbook and jump on the last one so here we go.

That pretty much sums up my day (I have been studying as well etc.) So I am so ready to hit the bed. Gonna do some painting on the Happy Color app. Try to calm down a bit before sleep.

Goodnight my pumpkins 🎃
