Mother’s Day with mixed emotions
I have mixed feeling about today. Last year we took MIl to breakfast with my SO family. We went to a place where it brought back memories of my Mom and I had to walk out of the restaurant and was crying . I didn't want to be there and celebrate someone else(especially since she is not really a nice person to my SO)But anyway MIL knows I don't want to go to this place. And it is a chain restaurant not some special one. I aM not going but my mixed emotions are that I am sad that MIL won't go somewhere else but I am happy I will not have to see the entitled SKs.

A NEW favorite restaurant. Start by just going to. A known great restaurant
I struggle with Mother’s Day
I struggle with Mother’s Day because it has become such a toxic shit show of a holiday that women are left feeling either left out or forced into doing things they aren’t comfortable with because it’s all for the MOM Day. Nobody should be forcing you to do anything if it’s causing you emotional stress, it’s just another holiday that got taken over by Hallmark and has turned into another corporate cash grab.
Take her to a place as a surprise. One that will not allow
Take her to a place as a surprise. One that will not allow her to manipulate. It is pretty easy to not give her a choice by making it a surprise.
As for our M-Day. SS called my bride. We spoke for about an hour. He says that he is excited about our visit. We fly out to spend 6days with him this coming Saturday. He also called my mom.
I did not go nuts fo rM-day this year. I went nuts at Christmas so Sunday of this week was a run to the jeweler to get her Christmas present sized and some other repairs done. I made dinner. We had a great day though.
I hope all of you ladies celebrating had a great day and your kids, SOs, family, etc... all did a good job.
