Re: How was everyone's Mother's Day
There is so much pressure on every holiday and having the best day ever with FB and social media. I'm sorry you didn't have a good day.

Fun times with my favorite people. What's not to love?
Same here.
It was uneventful as it usually is. We stayed home, relaxed and I made a nice dinner for us. Not having to rush anywhere and getting to spend time with DH and the kids is all I need. It was a nice day. 
I'm pretty sure she said what's not to love. All she wanted was to sleep later and her husband let her daughter wake her up and then slept in himself. I guess you both missed that part?
Ummm...........The title of the post is literally, "How was everyone's Mother's Day".
We both answered.
Your reply to us was unnecessary.
Yeah but you are so tone deaf it's crazy. She was upset and venting, the last thing she needs is someone asking her What's not to love????

Funny thing. Where did you call out all of the others who posted about THEIR day in response? Oh right. You didn't.
Also, I didn't say "what's not to love". That was seaside. Maybe you should try reading before responding with your usual raggy attitude.

Mine started fantastic. Got woken up by DD at 7am on the ONE day of the year that I figured I would actually get to sleep in. Dh decided to tell her just to laydown in bed with us and be quiet. She decides she's going to start a conversation. I took her to the out to feeds ducks, while DH slept. No breakfast, no gift, nada. I even made my own dinner reservation.
I hear you. For me there is not better gift than being able to sleep in. Maybe you can get to sleep in on Father's Day  j/k.
I slept in, they got me e-cards, and the afternoon was watching DS play baseball. Nothing eventful but it was a nice day.

You said "SAME." And actually you and seaside seemed to be the only ones with the "of course my life is perfect" attitude on a post that was clearly not that.....
I love my raggy attitude.....

Where do you get that "my life is perfect" from my comment about an uneventful Mother's Day where I stayed home and did literally nothing? Weird. It's very obvious you didn't read the other comments about how others celebrated before making your dumb reply to me.
I think we're done here, resident drama queen.

Re: How was everyone's Mother's Day
There are many that would never come out and say they were upset about their day anyway as that would ruin the look of the perfect family they have formed for social media and anyone outside their home. SMH

Or maybe, there are actually happy people existing in the world. Shocking concept, I know! 
OP - I have found when you don't set expectations for others, you're less disappointed. But to another posters point, if you really want your day to go a certain way it's definitely best to be vocal about it. Men tend to need more direction when it comes to stuff like this. lol

But.... there are also a lot of people who put up that house of cards for everyone to see. And then it all comes tumbling down.
I'm extremely happy but I certainly don't have the perfect marriage, kids, life etc. My house always looks like a bomb went off, I feed my kids take out like 3 or 4 days a week because I hate cooking but we are all getting by having a good time. I just like to keep it real. My husband can be a sh*t sometimes and mess up mother's day and even though I love my family it still pisses me off! And sometimes I'm a sh*t too. No one's perfect.

Nobody ever said life or relationships are perfect. Happiness is NOT perfection. Happiness is accepting that even when life is a $hit show and things are crazy you STILL wake up every day with a smile on your face and grateful for what you have.
Quite honestly, what others think about about my life is of no consequence to me as people will see what they want to see. As long as my kids, DH and I are all happy with the (imperfect) life we're leading then I'm good.  Some people spend too much time being concerned about the lives others are leading.

Just stop, we ALL are happy with many things in our life. We just can admit that things suck sometimes and others know they are not alone as they have gone through it too.
Honestly my husband reminded the kids (whom I am not too happy with, at least one and they are owing me a pedicure) and got me flowers. My day was really no different than any other Sunday. I didn’t want to have to spend a ton of money at a crowded restaurant as we have BTDT. I have been a mother over 20 years so I have had it all and done it all. It does get upsetting though when the day is not acknowledged by your kids. Seems to be very common with older kids. This is why these “fake” holidays suck sometimes. Then add on social media which has made it worse for many people.
Then you have men who don’t give a crap. Women should probably take their lead lol.

I really don't understand the obsession some have with trying to get Hofstra to admit that she isn't happy or that her life isn't perfect. May she just is that happy (then let her enjoy it) or maybe she is living in a fantasy (still-let her enjoy her fantasy). Either way, what is the obsession a person lives and views their life?

Quite the contrary. I think the "obsession" is more with why she would, as well as seaside, would ignore the entire post and just post about how wonderful their day was. It's inappropriate but with some posters it happens over and over. For example, I get into a huge blow out with my husband and come here to vent about it, and the response is "I have been in love with my husband since our eyes locked in high school. I still get butterflies every time he walks in the room. We never fight!!!" It's just about knowing your audience I guess. If someone is venting about how their mother's day sucks, the last thing they want to hear is how someone else had the perfect day because they were with the one's they love and it doesn't get better than that!!!!! They want to hear how your husband is a jack a** sometimes too. No one cares about your lovely day with your wonderful family.

I don't think I've ever woken up with a smile on my face. I'm not a morning person. For me it's probably more about going to sleep with a smile on my face. Or passing out from drinking to much wine. Either one is fine by me.

Because you and VB are quite literally OBSESSED with everything I say and my life you've detailed this thread by creating some false drama and nonsense. I guess the people who had an amazing day on Sunday and the best short ribs didn't get YOUR memo about how they were to respond on this thread.
Regarding your "quotes" about my DH and I maybe give some context. That wasn't on a thread about couples fighting, it was about finding your one true love. Way to create a false narrative though.
To end this nonsense with you, I answered the question asked on this thread. Period. How you've managed to take my comment about doing absolutely NOTHING for Mother's s Day and then repeatedly carry on about how that is somehow indicative of a "perfect life" just goes to show how absolutely moronic you are. My comment didn't warrant a reply from you. At all. But you're obsessed as much as you like to deny it. Your verbal diarrhea on every thread is fast becoming a snooze fest.

Nobody ever said life or relationships are perfect. Happiness is NOT perfection. Happiness is accepting that even when life is a $hit show and things are crazy you STILL wake up every day with a smile on your face and grateful for what you have.
Quite honestly, what others think about about my life is of no consequence to me as people will see what they want to see. As long as my kids, DH and I are all happy with the (imperfect) life we're leading then I'm good. Some people spend too much time being concerned about the lives others are leading.
I don't think I've ever woken up with a smile on my face. I'm not a morning person. For me it's probably more about going to sleep with a smile on my face. Or passing out from drinking to much wine. Either one is fine by me.
I wake up with raging anxiety most days.
Actually, I wake up kind of like this....

I really don't understand the obsession some have with trying to get Hofstra to admit that she isn't happy or that her life isn't perfect. May she just is that happy (then let her enjoy it) or maybe she is living in a fantasy (still-let her enjoy her fantasy). Either way, what is the obsession a person lives and views their life?
Quite the contrary. I think the "obsession" is more with why she would, as well as seaside, would ignore the entire post and just post about how wonderful their day was. It's inappropriate but with some posters it happens over and over. For example, I get into a huge blow out with my husband and come here to vent about it, and the response is "I have been in love with my husband since our eyes locked in high school. I still get butterflies every time he walks in the room. We never fight!!!" It's just about knowing your audience I guess. If someone is venting about how their mother's day sucks, the last thing they want to hear is how someone else had the perfect day because they were with the one's they love and it doesn't get better than that!!!!! They want to hear how your husband is a jack a** sometimes too. No one cares about your lovely day with your wonderful family.
Because you and VB are quite literally OBSESSED with everything I say and my life you've detailed this thread by creating some false drama and nonsense. I guess the people who had an amazing day on Sunday and the best short ribs didn't get YOUR memo about how they were to respond on this thread.
Regarding your "quotes" about my DH and I maybe give some context. That wasn't on a thread about couples fighting, it was about finding your one true love. Way to create a false narrative though.
To end this nonsense with you, I answered the question asked on this thread. Period. How you've managed to take my comment about doing absolutely NOTHING for Mother's s Day and then repeatedly carry on about how that is somehow indicative of a "perfect life" just goes to show how absolutely moronic you are. My comment didn't warrant a reply from you. At all. But you're obsessed as much as you like to deny it. Your verbal diarrhea on every thread is fast becoming a snooze fest.
The fact that you take this all so seriously and get so riled up is, quite frankly, one of the most amusing parts of my day.....
I didn't go back and read all your old posts, I was just generalizing how you come off.
And who posted about the short ribs? I must have missed it because I love me some good short ribs...

There are many that would never come out and say they were upset about their day anyway as that would ruin the look of the perfect family they have formed for social media and anyone outside their home. SMH
Or maybe, there are actually happy people existing in the world. Shocking concept, I know!
OP - I have found when you don't set expectations for others, you're less disappointed. But to another posters point, if you really want your day to go a certain way it's definitely best to be vocal about it. Men tend to need more direction when it comes to stuff like this. lol
Just stop, we ALL are happy with many things in our life. We just can admit that things suck sometimes and others know they are not alone as they have gone through it too.
Honestly my husband reminded the kids (whom I am not too happy with, at least one and they are owing me a pedicure) and got me flowers. My day was really no different than any other Sunday. I didn’t want to have to spend a ton of money at a crowded restaurant as we have BTDT. I have been a mother over 20 years so I have had it all and done it all. It does get upsetting though when the day is not acknowledged by your kids. Seems to be very common with older kids. This is why these “fake” holidays suck sometimes. Then add on social media which has made it worse for many people.
Then you have men who don’t give a crap. Women should probably take their lead lol.
I really don't understand the obsession some have with trying to get Hofstra to admit that she isn't happy or that her life isn't perfect. May she just is that happy (then let her enjoy it) or maybe she is living in a fantasy (still-let her enjoy her fantasy). Either way, what is the obsession a person lives and views their life?
Because some people are both insecure and unhappy in their own lives so they need to project that on others in order to feel better about themselves. It's quite pathetic to put so much thought and energy into a stranger online.

Trust me, the LAST thing I take seriously is this half dead news forum. What a joke. 
Just so we're clear, IDGAF what you think about me. You're a nothing name on a forum.
