Blah Blah Blah Day

It's Boss's Day observed and it's Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day.  That's a whole lot of stuff wrapped into one day.  I'll start with the latter.

Pretty sure yesterday I remembered the loss of our baby in March.  I didn't need a Remembrance Day today, and I wouldn't need another one in 6 months, when I'll remember the day I lost the baby.  Do we really need to commercialize the loss of our children?  I mean, come on.  Let's just remember, and those who want to grieve can grieve in their own time, but I mean what's next Pet Remembrance Day: The Day to Remember Those Pets Who Have Gone Before Us.  Fatal Car Accident Remembrance Day.  House Fire Death Remembrance Day.  I can go on, but I don't want to be offensive.  As if this day isn't a little offensive already.  Whatever.  Anyway...

Boss's Day.  We went to lunch with Dusty's boss, John.  We love John.  He's such an amazing man, and we appreciate him a lot.  We give him bread, cupcakes, cakes, other things, and visit him regularly with our kids, who love him as much as he loves them.  I also, at 10:00, decided to make a giant chocolate chip cookie with icing on it and meet him at 11:30 for lunch.  I did it.  I got the cookie done, and I got to the place at 11:37, which was before Dusty and John got there, so we were good. :)  The lunch took FOREVER.  I didn't get to leave until 1:15, and Dusty and John left before that.  This restaurant is driving me crazy with their lack of service.  We're not going back, even though their food is AWESOME!  We'll have to call for take out or something, as long as they're in business because they won't be for long with the way they're going.  I just feel like the whole shindig wasn't really worth it.  I should've just done something substantial for him, and given it to him on Monday.  It just seemed like the lunch was too anxious for me because of the amount of time it was taking, and the fact that the kids were STARVING (me too), and getting to nap time.  Next time, I'll just buy a card for John.
