I realize that Christmas isn't about gifts. Which is why I'm not getting my inlaws anything at all. Sounds bitchy. But at my SIL's wedding in march we spent $200 on her. At our wedding 6 weeks later, we didn't even get a congrats. My MIL ASKED us to get her a $50 purse for mother's day. We did. I didn't even get a happy mother's day. I had a two year old and was pregnant at the time. Christmas? Everyone got awesome gifts. Except for me. I got a bottle of suave body wash. So I don't feel like spending our diligently saved money on people who have said I'm worthless to my husband. Fuck them.

My dd went through a phase where she wanted to be called by whatever character she was wearing. If she wore a Dora shirt, we called her Dora, if she wore a pretty dress she wanted to be called princess. She started @ a Mother's day out and she introduced herself as princess and the teacher hinted that I was wrong in allowing her to do that (I guess being spoiled or whatever)but laughed when I explained. As they learned, DD is not spoiled one bit and is very sweet and kind but has quite an imagination that I never try to squash.

my DH did nothing for me on Mother's Day but I did nice things for him this Father's Day. I think that makes his blowing my holiday off that much more obvious. If I blew his day off, he would feel justified for doing nothing for me.

I'm kind of sad that more fathers don't bitch about having crappy Father's Days here. The bitchy Mother's Day posts are always entertaining.

I'm so tired and so hungry. I can't eat. Its not that i dont want to. He's gone and we're divorcing. i got a restraining order and he desperately wants to see DD on Father's Day. even if it was a good idea(its not) i couldn't legally do it. plus he called CPS on me on Mother's Day just to screw with me. wild allegations like i smoke crack and don't feed DD(i taken and passed many drug tests since) Every day it seems something else happens that makes me want to cry and give up

Ex-husband called to remind me that Sunday is Father's Day - just in case I wanted our DD to get him a card or a gift. I guess I missed that memo because he sure as hell made no attempt to help make my Mother's day bright and cheery. For the record, DD already has something for him that I helped her get it just pisses me off that he expects me to do it.

FIL sent me a Mother's Day card that basicly said Enjoy your Mother's Day because tomorrow its back to your real job of doing the housework. I work fulltime and am the sole support of my family (HB & 3 kids) My DH (his son) hasn't worked for 2 1/2 years. DH sits on the couch all day on his laptop computer on the internet. DH doesn't do ANY household chores, shopping or helping out. The card PISSED me off so much! He should have given it to DH!

Enjoying a lazy day. I worked on school projects on Mother's Day, and haven't had a day off from school work in a month. The dishes can sit!

So, I wrote on here a few days ago how DH was such an ass about Mother's Day. He's deployed and he write me an e-mail saying he didn't send me any flowers so stop looking. Well, I guess what he actually sent was a few days late coming. He sent me a vibrator. . .LOL

My MIL is someone that I just don't like. I can be nice to her when I have to see her, but she just isn't a nice person. My aunt was talking about how when she was dating this one guy he bought her flowers on mother's day for the potential she had for being a great mother. MIL was like "What a jerk!! Like you're nothing if you're not a mother." lol she's the type of woman that men complain about not understanding. She just likes picking fights when there's nothing to be picked.
