AJ, to STFU and listen is the lesson I learnt since BD. For a person who could not miss a chance to make sarcastic comments in the past, this is a significant accomplishment.

Mighty, you are correct, he wanted to be “off the grid” and “working towards” that. Well, maybe he is actually getting there. IPad is probably to replace his laptop. But, on the other side, it will have him connected to the world 24/7, hehe.

My son called me to wish me Happy Mother’s day. He said that he was studying for one of his college finals tomorrow, and asked me if I would consider going for lunch or dinner next week instead of today. I said that I didn’t feel like going out today anyway, so it would be fine. After all, the biggest gift he can give me is working towards his degree and finishing school.

Happy to report some GAL activities for last week thought. Went to the free movie screening with my GF, and stopped by a nice bar for a drink on the way back. Yesterday, I went to a Walk for the animals event sponsored by local humane society. I did this with a group of people from work who actually have a team that does the fundraising for this organization every year. And then went to my sister’s for dinner to celebrate Mother’s Day.

So, no wonder I was not feeling like going anywhere today. And, for whatever reason I felt very down today. H didn’t wish me Happy Mother’s day, as it was expected. This is the 3rd Mother’s day that I didn’t get anything from him, even simple acknowledgement. For some reason it hurt worse today. I don’t know why. I should be used to this by now, right? I felt so sad, thinking how he just discarded me and my son out of his life. He probably wished Happy Mother’s day to that crazy woman from the vacation home. And I didn’t deserve a simple text. Must have been a sh!tty Mother in his opinion. Oh well… Moving on…

Happy Mother's Day to everyone!
