I miss being able to take my mom out on Mother's Day, but on the flip side I was taken out by my daughter and had a truly wonderful day to celebrate me. It felt odd, but good.

not your mom's socks.

extra lovely with an extra 'f' to make 'off'. Even I couldn't figure out how to read that line this morning.

Wow, it must be a Monday, it's awfully quiet in here.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
nnnrrggghh. The weekends are too short.

When they are as beautiful as the one we finally got here, I completely concur!

My Mother's Day ended up being anticlimactic. My mom and SIL had a tiff and SIL didn't want to spend Mother's Day with my mom, so I ended up taking my Mom out to brunch. I expected it to be filled with her bitching about SIL, but to my abject surprise, she admitted that she was not blameless in the tiff. She did, however, take any opportunity to give SIL a shot or criticism.

I called my mom on mother's day. No one picked up so I left a message. No one called back.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I managed to get my Mothers' Day cards in the mail in time for them to get there on Saturday!
Today, I do not have class or work. Once I need to put on outside pants, I will be wearing jeans.
I have one more class to finish entering grades for, and then I'm done with one of my jobs.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I didn't get my mother a card or present yet, but I'm visiting her, and she keeps talking about how nice it is to have everyone home. We went out to lunch for mothers day, at a Greek restaurant that was really good.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My mother has not responded to my card yet, which, since it was from someecards.com does worry me a little.
But we spoke for a long time on the phone, and she let me rail about work, and I let her beg me for grandkids. So I think it was win-win.
