I bought my mom some PJs and a card that I will give her tomorrow. Maybe bring breakfast biscuits depending on what my sister has planned for food.

Today my son said he hasn't got me anything for mother's day. Nothing.

Earlier in the week he asked what I wanted and I suggested making me a card and he said he didn't feel inspired. So I suggested he buy a plant or flowers where he works and I said I really like the ferns they have.

My feelings are hurt. I don't matter.

His birthday is in four days and I was going to order him an ice cream cake from Baskin Robbins and take him out to a nice dinner and buy him a steak. I have several small gifts plus I was going to give him cash to buy video games but now I don't even care. No cake, no cash and I will choose just one of the gifts to give him.

Like they say, it's the thought that counts and my son clearly doesn't think much of me.
