Don't Make Me Turn This Car Around

It's a long drive to Florenceville.  Add a trip to Fredericton and back in there, and the drive back home on the same highway every time, gets a little boring.  Shawn and I like to take the scenic route sometimes.  Yesterday we went up north around Campbellton and Saint Quentin area, down through Saint Leonard and Four Falls.  Yes, it was all highway driving, but the mountains were very pretty.  Lots of farm land.  Saw 2 moose just outside Miramichi.  We were driving too fast to stop and there was traffic behind us.  Saw one on the way home just outside Boiestown. We were able to stop for this one, but by the time I was able to reach my camera in the back seat, she was gone.  Never the less, it was a fantastic trip with the kids and ended with a good feed at The Doghut Canteen.

Mother's Day

It's Mother's Day. For some, you get to spend some time with your moms. But for me, I've been jipped out of a Mother's Day for 11 of them. Over the course of the past 11 Mother's Days, I've often shut people out for a few days. I've shut myself off from the world. For some reason I was awake at 4:30 this morning, and saw this beautiful sunrise. I haven't seen one in a while and I'd like to believe it's my mom telling me not to be such a whiny, entitled bitch and deal with it. I'm not entirely sure what my excuse is for the rest of the time I'm grumpy, hateful and shut people out. I'm sure I'll have some excuse soon enough. I'm going to get dressed like I do any other day, and kick today in the balls. Today is not going to get me down. Today is going to be an OK day. Happy Mom's Day. **Disclaimer : I know I am not the only person with no mom. But this post isn't about you. This post is about me and my feels. Deal.
