My DIL sent me a sweet message on Facebook and my son called. We had a fine conversation. He's so easy to talk with. They're off again in 2 weeks, this time to Berlin and to the Swiss Alps. After they return we'll get together. If I didn't have my kitties I'd stay in their flat while they're away. I love it there, right in the middle of the city and close to the ocean. But I have my fur balls.
I did my hair (color) and gave it an Olaplex treatment. It came out nice. Had a pleasant shower, did laundry, and gave myself fresh sheets. My bamboo blanket is arriving tomorrow, spring green this time.
Whew. So I made it through another Mother's Day without my daughter. Sometimes I wonder how many years the grief will take from my life. But then I fight inside; I don't want to lose any years because of her behavior towards me, because in no way do I deserve it. I want those years with my son.
Tonight is a chilly one, but I'll take it. Before I turn around it'll be plenty hot. Time for bed.
I hope that everyone has a really good Monday morning. I hope you see something beautiful. |
Glad you had a good day albeit shadowed with your Daughter’s no contact from her. I really hate it for you.
That is a shame you can’t go away for a few days. I hear you on needing to be home with furbabies that what kept me home for Christmas and then when Cindy past away. But the boys bring us such joy I’m not bothered much when we can’t go together.
I bet your hair looks amazing ! Olaplex is a life saver for color treated hair !
Keep being good to yourself ! I insist
