I digress...
Now he's planning his next trip. He asks me if I would mind keeping the kids for the whole weekend on Mother's Day weekend?? I said I need to think about it. Actually I do mind. It's going to be a hard weekend for me anyways feeling lonely and I'm tired of him always getting to escape reality. I want him to have to think of me, the mother of his children. He says, "You'll be with your kids. That's what Mother's Day is about." (But I seem to remember years when he traveled on Father's Day weekend because it was "his weekend")
In 12 years of celebrating Mother's Day, I've never traveled. Heck, it 13 years of being his wife I've only been on maybe 5 trips total without him and the kids and they were usually 2 day trips with my Sis.
Yes, anger is ugly. And so is jealousy. Resentment is an awful feeling.
Sometimes I wish I had a mind zapper. I wouldn't want to completely forget my history and this failed, hurtful relationship that once started like a fairy tale and resulted in my two beautiful children. But I would like to just zap it out for a while.
Just so I didn't have to hurt.
Just so I didn't have to think of him.
Just so I could sleep.
Just so I wouldn't be so lonely.
Just so I wouldn't miss what I had.
Just so I wouldn't be tempted to settle for less.
Just so I could learn that I had value and worth.
Just so I could learn to love myself.
Just so I could learn to have fun.
Just so I could truly be happy.
Just so I could have the glow of a girl not yet hurt by love
Just so I could have the innocence of a girl not yet broken
Just so...

Yes, come to Canada for Janetk's vodka and kool-aid, and my boxed wine. 
Actually, my mother's day is usually spent feeling like dirt while at MIL's cabin watching everyone shower her with gifts. I might get an envelope with a $10 bill in it shoved at me.
