I'm glad it's over.
It's a hard day.
when I was younger, it was a hard day cuz, believe it or not, it's hard to find a card that says, "Thanks for abandoning me mom! Happy Mother's Day!"
I always struggled with cards...I couldn't actually buy a card that gushed love and happiness and sweet as sugar flowers....
But now?
I wish I COULD buy a card. any card.
But I can't. and it's hard.
How do you celebrate Mother's Day when you have no mother? Especially when your relationship with your mother was far from ideal? And how you wish upon everything, that you had just a little more time to MAKE it ideal. to make more memories...to tell her that I love her more. to Hug her more often, and smell Caress soap and Worthers candies.
It was a depressing day for me. I cried most of the day. Felt very alone and lonely.
so Im glad it's over. At least for another year.

I ignore made up holidays. They irritate the heck out of me. I count on everyday things. f the holidays I say! Life is too short for regrets.
ps - that is one tough looking ragamuffin!
Kathy: I like you philosophy...mind if I jump on your band wagon?
yup! we only stop at Halloween :-)
Halloween it is!
On the flip-side: you've clearly identified a weakness in the greeting card industry.
You should come up with your own "other" cards for every occasion with witty & shitty messages.
You just might make a fortune.
