Any plans to celebrate?

This is the one holiday that I do my best to ignore. I have no father (anymore) and no husband. There is nothing for me to celebrate. It's a grief day for me - a day to really miss my Daddy. 

Is your father's day on the 18th? If so, it's the same here. I don't have a father, far as I am concerned, so just any other day.

My father has passed away, but my wife has said she'll indulge me a bit. We'll probably see Wonder Woman and get some ice cream somewhere.

 

Hopefully I'll hear from my son on Sunday, but he's a busy guy.

Lily, I've seen a lot of women on FB remembering their fathers.

 

Taltos, I agree with you.

 

James, I hope your son calls. You know what I did once? My older son was ignoring our birthdays, holidays etc. So on Chanukkah, when I normally sent him a card with money in it, I sent him just a card. Love you. I didn't say a word.

 

About two months later, we went to visit him in Arizona where he was stationed. When we got there, we were given a bottle of Israeli wine and some flowers. It wasn't sucking up. It was genuine.

 

 

James, I thought Wonder Woman was fantastic.

 

We usually go out to eat and then a movie, maybe. My youngest is a fireman, so we likely won't see him.  The other is in Seattle, so he'll get calls.
