Back to blogging?

For the past year, I've been missing my blog and wondering what I could write about. What I'm most passionate about is work, but obviously I can't write about that on here. Recently though, I've become more and more interested in politics. I think it's because I have a new smart phone and the only thing I know how to do on it is call people and check the news. Regardless, I've been posting all sorts of articles on my facebook and really enjoyed listening to what my friends and family members have to so. So, voila, I have something to write about again. This will probably get me in trouble, but at least I can't get fired for it like I almost did last time.

On a somewhat related note

If this is how it really went down every Sunday, maybe us non mothers wouldn't feel need to boycott church on Mothers day

On Mother's Day

"You know, Mother's Day really is a horrible holiday. You've got all the people who wish they were mothers who are sad. Then you've got all the people who have lost their mothers who are sad. There's mothers who miss their kids who are scattered all over the country, so they are sad. And then there's all the people who have kids, but feel like they are a terrible mother and are not living up to anyones expectations so they are sad.... I really don't know anybody who actually LIKES this stupid holiday!"

-This person shall remain nameless, but this conversation made my day. This person is a mother, by the way.


Don't get me wrong. I think mothers are wonderful. I love my mom and am so, so thankful for everything she's done. Mothers DO deserve recognition for the sacrifices they make and everything they do to raise their kids.

But seriously. Mother's Day does kind of suck.
