I thought it was something that would never bother me, but I guess deep down it does.

Sometimes I wish I felt a little appreciated.

I shouldn’t have to ask for help or support from those that live with me. My children and husband, I sacrifice so much of myself for them DAILY my oldest didn’t even hug me, he gave me some flowers but he was out with his friends all day and then came home and ate in his room and went to bed.
My 15yr old asked ME for food all day. I had to feed my toddlers too so my husband brought him something to eat at 11 but lunch and dinner were on me.

My husband left early to take his mom to breakfast then they stopped by after so I could have brunch and so I could shower. Then he went to drop her off at his aunt and uncles and stayed there because they were having a cookout.

My 15yr old was in his room most of the day. Except when he came out to eat with us.

My toddlers were very sweet today but they don’t understand what Mother’s Day is.


Yesterday we went to see my mom because her dog was neutered and he’s not kennel trained so my mom won’t leave him alone she wants to watch him to make sure he doesn’t hurt himself. Which I understand. So she was craving pizza from lou malnatis and wings and we picked that up for her and I took her her gift and flowers.
That was a gift itself because I don’t go to her house since she’s still married to my abuser. I had wanted to take her to brunch or dinner but she refused 🤦🏻‍♀

I feel like maybe I’m a shitty mom and that’s why this weekend was not a big deal to anyone, like no one around me.

My friends wished me a happy Mother’s Day, but that’s it.

I spent my day today sorting laundry and washing, cleaning the bathrooms and doing dishes. Yay me

Did go to Walgreens and bought my best friend who’s do anytime in the next 4 weeks a little gift a candle and a small toiletry gift set and some face masks etc so she can give herself a little pick me up post birth

I am so sorry you didn't have a better day ☹ Both of my parents are gone now. We don't have kids so we spent the day alone. I am having a colonoscopy in the morning so I couldn't eat today. My wife is handicapped so I take care of everything in the house including her. Not being able to eat and I still had to cook for her. I feel your pain. She can't drive anymore so I even had to get a friend to take me for my procedure in the morning. I have to be there at 6 am. That is truly a good friend who will pick you up at 5:30.
