I just need to vent about Mother's Day. I have been fantasizing all week that Mother's Day would be some romantic ordeal or at least an extra special day all about me without having to worry about what anyone else wants or needs. I had high hopes that just maybe my boyfriend would do something nice. Flowers for once. Hell, anything.
I was daydreaming so bad that I completely forgot about celebrating with my own mother. I hadn't made any plans aside from working 8 hours that day all because of my fantasies. This, of course, upset her so now I feel bad. I didn't mean to hurt her feelings by not making plans with her but I was really wanting the day to be about me. I do realize how selfish that may sound but I can't help it. I can't be the only one who feels this way. Can I? I love my mother to death and would be lost without her. I have every intention to see her on Sunday.
I just wanted to keep my night open just in case my honey wanted to take me out. Which I found out later that he hadn't even given the day a thought. There goes my high hopes of a special day. :( He straight up told me that I am not his mom and he has his own mom to worry about. Yes, I know this. However, my kids are not old enough to do something extra special. I love getting their pictures or whatever else they may make but they can't do it all on their own.
Bottom line, I am upset because I hurt my mother's feelings and sad because my hopes of an extra special day went out the window. I also feel bad because I was so selfish.
What do you guys typically do for Mother's Day?
