Easter Slap in the Face

If you are having a good Easter, don't read any farther.

Because I'm having a bad easter (well, of course).

I'm sick. Really sick. A cold type illness, with aching legs thrown in just for fun.

And DH is sick, and DS has a cold, which means snot all over everything he touches, and kleenex on the ground everywhere.

I bought all the easter stuff for the kids. I stuffed the plastic easter eggs with candy. I put out a few of the items, and DH hid the rest.

I wake up suddenly this morning, from my terrible sick sleep (horrible sore throat all night long, my head propped up so I can breathe). It's just before 7am, and something tells me to jump up and get downstairs.

And it's over. DH and the kids did the easter egg hunt already.

So I did all the work, and he got all the glory.

Which was just like Christmas when I did all the gifts, put everything out, and woke up at 8am to find everyone already downstairs.

Thanks so much for excluding me again. :(

So, enjoy yourself on another day. Instead of Mother's Day you can call it Me Day.

Ever hear of mothers/wives "striking"? Tell 'em you've had it. Have them do their own washing, cooking, cleaning for a week. Rest, drink green tea and chicken soup, and "veg out".

It wouldn't work. DH already has to do his own laundry and he just loves to do the womanly work and leave the manly stuff to me.

Take your revenge on Mother's Day. Buy yourself something nice (and expensive). Leave DH at home with the kids while you go to a movie, the library, a nice restaurant, where ever.... I hope your feeling better soon.

But we always have to go to MIL's cabin to shower her with gifts for Mother's Day.

Put your foot down. Both of them! Get control of this or it will go on and on!

What's the female equivalent of the male curmudgeon ?

Hope you get to feeling better physically. Maybe you can have a little family meeting before the next holiday and lay out the ground rules, and whatever you do, you can't ever say 'oh, I had a miserable night, just got to sleep, and now here you all are waking me up for the egg hunt.' Let's hope Mother's Day is an improvement.

I'm toying with the idea of skipping Mother's Day. Let them go to MIL's cabin and shower her with gifts while I go do a Mother's Day run....
