I Just Want to Be Alone, Together, But Like, Don’t Be Here…

I think Mother’s Day is hard, and I know, you’re probably reading this in like February, but listen, Mother’s Day is what started it all.

Simple celebrations is what I prefer. My birthday isn’t my favorite. Mother’s Day is a little too much. I just want quiet, simple, no gifts, just being together.

But not too much together because that can get a little tiring.

But don’t leave me alone, I don’t want to be lonely.

I just need space, and togetherness, and solitude, while being celebrated.

You see my dilemma and why I’m hard on a husband?

So he makes me tacos. And I’m happy. And full. These tend to be my favorite:)

Ingredients For Shredded Beef Tacos
