i do not hate mothers day. really. it is just a hard day for me...it makes me sad as i see people doing kind things for their mothers or having to call there mothers....or whatever. I wish i could tell my mom happy mothers day...i know i can - but for real like she was alive and not dead....and why this year have three people said happy mothers day to me...I have not known how to respond I just smile and say nothing.

It is odd sometimes how you can avoid something for whatever reason - but life ever do gently shoves it right back in your face...just so you won't forget.

and on a totally separate note I just learned on Friday that DC does not have school buses...huh?
