Anyone else having a terrible Mother's Day?
With all the happy Mother's Day threads, I want one where I can gripe and complain until my heart is content. Today SUCKS! First, hubby tells me last night "I didn't have a chance to get you anything for Mother's Day"... duh, this is a typical excuse he uses for lots of holidays. I am not surprised in the least. Plus, it's not like he's not on the internet for hours and hours where there are tons of online stores. No biggies cause I don't need a physical gift. You'd think he'd at least make my day pleasant somewhat. Nope. I woke up at 11 and realized it was so late, even though we typically dont get out of bed and go downstairs til 9 or 9:30. I look over and hubby is still snoring away. No such luck of him getting up with our son. i go into his room and he is happily playing. Normally, he calls across the hall for me when he is ready for me to get up. Not today... good boy! SO, I bring him downstairs and fit #1 starts within 1 minute of us coming downstairs. This was over me trying to get his diaper off so he can get on the potty and get his underwear on. I finally win that battle. 1 minute later, the second tantrum starts cause I am not fast enough in getting his "snack" aka breakfast. Every food is called a snack for some reason. I finally get that settled. meanwhile, hubby is still snoring away. TMI- I try to go to the bathroom, but son comes in there at least 5 times giving me no peace. I come out to find that he has made a huge mess in the living room getting into stuff he shouldn't have. I go to clean that up. The dog comes downstairs and starts to stalk my son wanting his food. i get to tell the dog 20 times to go laydown. all the while, hubby is still snoring away. After about an hour or so of a crappy morning, I yell up the stairs "Thanks for a great mothers day!" in my grumpy voice. He finally staggers downstairs. he mumbles something to my son about him being tired cause he worked 12 hours yesterday..... as if he deserves the day off on mothers day! He aggrevates me SO much sometimes. Keep in mind that he was asleep several hours before me AND after me, so he got at least 14 hours of sleep. yes, at least 14 hours of sleep! yet, he is SO dog gone tired. I am just so aggrevated that I wish there was no mother's day. It gives false hopes to moms who think for even a second that they might get 5 minutes of peace on that day. It never happens for me! I still get the usual crap and aggrevation I always get and it just makes me even more bitter!
Please, no "i'm sorry"s. I appreciate them, but not in the mood for them. This is a thread for all of us having a crappy day to vent Misery loves company! Hubby is gonna read this, too. he reads just about everything I post cause he's nosey. I rarely vent about him, but couldn't help myself this afternoon! He'll just need to get over it! Part of this might be my hormones... LOL

Re: Anyone else having a terrible Mother's Day?
mine always starts off bad because my mom is a b***h and i don't talk to her. and dh's mom passed away in 2004 (4 weeks before our wedding day). so dh is never in a good mood for like 4 hours. i just ave to spend mother's day by myself until he talks to me. then i know it is safe.

Re: Anyone else having a terrible Mother's Day?
Mother's Day is always hard for me since I lost my mom 3 years ago. I broke down in tears several times yesterday because it was also my birthday and I was missing her so much. I've had a few Mother's Days like yours, but this one has turned out okay. DH got the kids' breakfast and dressed Nathaniel today. He spent several hours detailing my car yesterday. One of my sister's made me a cake, and the other one volunteered to watch our kids so DH and I could go eat last night. But I've gone to bed some Mother's Days feeling so disappointed because it was not a relaxing day at all. And my DH also reads everything too, which for the most part is okay, but sometimes I just want to share my feelings without him knowing.

Re: Anyone else having a terrible Mother's Day?
My hubby left the house this morning at 7:30 am to go fishing with my FIL who called LAST NIGHT and asked if he wanted to go...
and he's STILL not home. He was going to be home by 1 AT THE LATEST which I swear I hear every stinking time he leaves the house, and now it's 3:30, and he JUST left his mom's house which is 30-45 minutes away. I told him "I want long john silvers, so you BETTER stop there before you come home" I have been SCRUBBING my kitchen all day! When I get angry, I clean, and so I have been cleaning. I was in a good mood until 1;30, when I figured he would be on his way. nope grrrrrr

Re: Anyone else having a terrible Mother's Day?
I sometimes clean when I am angry, too. I only like to clean if hubby is not home. Only think I have done so far is pick up the mess andrew made this morning and I went through some papers on my desk. I have been putting off laundry, but am about to do it. Andrew is down to 2 clean pairs of underwear plus the ones he is wearing now. We are potty training, so I don't want to be without undies if he has an accident. We are suppose to go down to see my in-laws this afternoon, but I don't relly want to go. I am too angry to go put on a fake smile and say "thank you!" when they say happy mother;s day. In reality, i want to say "No, it's not a happy mother's day". blah. need to get those undies clean now!

Re: Anyone else having a terrible Mother's Day?
Dh also said last night that since we did yard work yesterday he didnt go out and get anything... I wasnt upset... but maybe a bit hurt. Then this morning I get up with Ike, get him his breakfest and whatnot and DH goes and escapes to write another chapter in his book... its 3:00 and hes still there! Yeah, ok I can feel with ya!

Re: Anyone else having a terrible Mother's Day?
My mother's day did not start off too well today and it is not going so well. Kyle is being a real big pain in the butt today. He has been fusy all day and having fits all day since I got in the shower. First he did not want to get in the shower. Then after the shower he was throwing fits until we left the house. He did really great when we were out of the house, but once we got back home it has started right back up again. This has been going on for about the past 3 days with him and I am not sure what is going on.

Re: Anyone else having a terrible Mother's Day?
My dh drops the ball on all holidays also.
I've decided that I am worthy of gifts for Christmas, birthday, Mother's Day, and if I have been really good, Easter too. Maybe even Halloween..... So because of this, I buy my own gifts (from the kids) and I let him know later what I got. It just seems to work better for us, and I don't know why but I'm a lot less bitter about the holidays now that I have let it go. I figure, I spend more on myself than he would spend on me so no biggie. (you should see the great scrapbooking stuff I'm getting for Mother's Day, hahahaha)

Re: Anyone else having a terrible Mother's Day?
I didn't even need a gift. a card would have been nice, but I would have been happy if he at least said happy mothers day and got up with our son and took care of him while I relaxed a little. Nope, instead, he treated it as if it was father's day. I am very bitter to say the least. Then, we got to go over to his grandmas house to see the family. That made me feel even worse cause my MIL got me a card and a gift card and my GMIL got me a nice shirt and a card. Plus, she got me this nice 5 or 6 piece outfit giftset for the baby. We got them squat cause I left it up to hubby and of course he did nothing. i told him he better pick up cards cause I wasn't doing it. so, i felt like a jackass cause I had nothing to hand them when they were giving me gifts. Today was just a really really crappy day all around. Now, i am going to bed!
