That May Holiday

I find that May holiday that comes in mid-May is upsetting me.  So many places advertise sales around it.  I can't avoid seeing the phrase "Mother's Day." I don't have my mother anymore and each time I see or hear it it's a reminder. 

Knitting helps me feel a little better.  Normally I would knit tonight, but I'm sore near my right clavicle.  I need to ice it and watch something funny instead.

Mom would have enjoyed this video.  She loved Toothless.  She also loved lilacs.  The bushes outside work are starting to bloom.

I was very surprised to learn at work I was receiving a raise.  I guess the company couldn't ignore 8 months of perfect scores.
