Well I cant complain that this is another holiday dreamed up by a card company or candy company it certainly has become commercialized. Every year my daughter asks me what I want to do for Father's day and I always respond have peace and quiet. My expert's Father has not been int he picture since she was 7 year old. It has been just me and her. In the early years she would have a problem as she thought she had to have a father to celebrate this holiday but I always told her it doesn't matter. What was important is that she recognize some one important in her life that she wanted to thanks to. For many years nothing was said and then when my expert became a teenager (you know how challenging it gets at that point) she started with this question. Now it is a day of promises that have been made and my expert procrastinator is still in bed. She will eventually get up when I annoy her enough. I sit her and laugh as I write this because I realize this is not a holiday it is like everyday in our lives.
She sleeps and I have cleaned the kitchen top to bottom, refilled the prescriptions, done some laundry, etc.... doesn't every family spend their Sunday's like this? We need to get to the pet store!!! hahaha If this isn't how people spend their Sunday's then what? Ambivalent? Yes or No?
Posting on Facebook doesnt always have to room to describe your thoughts so I have decided to venture into blogging. Sometimes I may have a lot to say then there will be time is will be short and to the point. These are my thoughts hence no one should take it personally
