Just need to vent.
I get that this is selfish, but I just want to feel wanted.
Mother's Day was Sunday and my birthday is Saturday. Husband is at work for both. Three kids at home. Not a single person in my household acknowledged mother's day on Sunday. I don't need gifts, but is a "Happy Mother Day" too much to ask for?
Husband brought home half off/half dead flowers and a pint of ice cream on Monday and said they were for me. I went to eat the ice cream today(Friday), but it was half gone. Husband said he thought I didn't want it since I hadn't touched it yet, so he ate some.
On Tuesday, the middle child sent me a video about mother's day. Still nothing from the other two.
My coworkers were very sweet about my birthday tomorrow. Decorated my door, bought small gifts and bundt cake. It ultimately just makes me sad because I feel like my coworkers care more about me than my own family.
Grand scheme of things, its probably just my own karma. My mother works midnights and weekends, so I didn't even get to talk to her, let alone do anything with her.
Whatever, I guess. Just two more ordinary days in the year.
