Feeling melancholy today, it's the 3 year anniversary of my Mother's passing [View all]

On top of that my husband forgot yesterday our 30th wedding anniversary. He gets forgetful about stuff like that but this is a biggie to me.

And then today on my way home from work I saw the same car my parents used to drive. The same car I saw the day I went to my Mother’s house, held her hand and she passed on. It gave me the chills. I got home and called my sister to see if she was ok.

Here is my original post from May 21st 2016. I will never forget the kindness of my fellow DU members that day. I knew my Mother was not long for this world but when it happens it still pierces ones heart. I always think my Mother in some way held off dying the next day so she wouldn’t mar my wedding anniversary. But my husband did me a number yesterday. He apologized but I’m still pissed. He did mention to me weeks ago that our anniversary was coming up and then he missed the day. I’m between angry and sad. We’ve actually had a good marriage but he really f’ed up this time.
