Of course, Bella asked me last week what I wanted for my birthday/Mother's Day, so I thought, and gave her several ideas. I even sat at the computer with her for awhile, giving her hints about colors that I like, etc. She decided on giving me a date night with hubby, and reservations at a restaurant. Since going gluten-free, eating out is difficult, overwhelming, and work. I don't want to have to think so hard about my present. I just want to relax and try to have fun. I looked at the menu where she got reservations. I can pretty much only order 1 of like 3 things there without worrying about what's in the sauce, or whatever. Ugh! I wish she had just listened to me, and gone with what I asked for.
Meanwhile, tomorrow is Mother's Day, when I will be without my mother, over half of my kids, and stuck with my MIL for a good chunk of the day. :-( I wish I could just fast forward this weekend. I'm not upset that I'm another year older. In fact, I'm proud to be 35, and I don't care who knows my age. I'm just upset about the people who can't celebrate with me.
I've been oiling like a crazy person, and plan to take a stress-relieving pill before we go to dinner.
Pray for me?
Thanks and God bless!
