Mothers Day = Mums Doing the Same Shit that They Always Do....

[CockyPants]

I spent mine dusting Cocky Towers and cooking washing up etc.
And up early as usual to breakfast DD...
'D'P spent all pm asleep....
My Mother's Day will start at 9:10am tomorrow when DD and DP are at school and work.
Come Fathers Day DP will be fussed over etc...Mums just do the same shitty stuff they do every other day...
Anyone else feel like this??

cali your poor DD. Hope you get an appointment tomorrow!

I've spent all day asleep as finished nightshift at 8am. Bacon sandwiches in bed and homemade cards then sleep til 4pm...DP made pasta for da and I am now preparing for another nightshift.

My mother's day has consisted of :
-traipsing DD2 to a rehearsal ( hour round trip) at 9.30 this morning.

• shopping

-putting the shopping away

• tidying the house for MiL who DH invited for lunch.

-Making lunch. -entertaining her for three hours while DH helped DD 1 with her homework. ( I love my MIL by the way- just felt awkward as DH had invited her and then spent the whole time elsewhere...) -Me going back to pick up DD 2 whilst he watched the rugby.

• spending an hour with my own mum. (Couldn't come for lunch as she was out today.)

. I am now cooking the dinner waiting to see when DD 2 will realise it is Mother's Day... As I haven't had a card or even a verbal message from her ( but to be fair she has been busy with rehearsals for her school play all last and this weekend.) DD 1 however gave me a lovely card and a beautiful scarf.

No, here I have an easy day. I had breakfast in bed whilst DH managed to get our two preschoolers to 'make' me breakfast. We were then out for lunch so that was easy and for dinner I just heated up something from the freezer that I batch cooked last week.
Had a family movie and popcorn before getting them into bed at about 6.45pm and now I'm having a quiet night MNetting. Can't complain really.

Yes. It's a bit depressing.
