hi guys, mother's day here but not in this house, not a card or wish anywhere in site. I did bring it up and had a meltdown and have cleared all members out of my house, am now making a nice pot of coffee, getting ready to go to a meeting and kind of chuckling to myself as I handed it all over to my hp just about 10 minutes ago.
Well, done, Maire. I have had a nice day so far. My daughter and her fiance took me and his Mum out for lunch and we had a lovely time. Sad, though, was the fact that in 31+ years of being a mum, this is the first year my husband has not been with us for Mother's day (in UK) lunch.
I am enjoying some time away from home - away from the girl. Made me stop and think, that is for sure. But May is coming for us!
I have spent the last 8 years away from my daughter on Mother's Day at work conferences. E v e r y single year it was on this date. Drove me mad! Funny thing is - this is my FAVORITE holiday - the rest, xmas, bdays etc really don't register with me. But Mother's Day??? Now THAT is special. I found a way to just celebrate in my heart and know that I am worthy.
This year. They moved the conference!!!!
Celebrate for you, you are worthy! Way to turn it over. If it is a special day for you - then make it a special day!

Thanks all for your relies, appreciated same, went to my meeting, had a super time, when I got home, they had sorted out the fuel problem for the next few months so something positive, my son apologised for not thinking of it, and I made him some dinner, then went off to a card game, it certainly helped to post and to hand it over to good old HP.
