It's Mother's Day. I plan to visit my mother some time today, but they'll probably be gone on the bike for a good portion of the day. In three shopping trips, over the past two weeks, I've looked at cards. I never found the right one, so she's not getting one. Terrible, isn't it? I never just buy a card to be buying a card. It's got to be right, and the right one wasn't there this year.
I needed a card that says, "Happy mother's day. Try to forget how much of a brat I was in high school." or something like that. How she put up with me, I don't know. I need to figure it out, since I'm going through the same thing now. I put my friends before my parents, stayed out until all hours, never helped around the house, and generally made life "all about me." What a brat.
Mom didn't give up on me, though. Now, I'd rather spend my free time at their house, than out with friends. I take care of my house and go to bed by 9. Sorry it took 38 years, Mom. I love you.

If we ride the motorcycle, it will be a short ride. Cliff is going to put up hay at some point today.
No problem with the card... I never was that big on cards.
We celebrated yesterday because it's always a major cluster trying to get a table at any restaurant on the actual day.
But since today is the actual day, Adrian decided to help bring home the meaning of Mothers Day. He's sick in bed with a fever and phlegm funkies. :) Eh, it's okay...that's what it's all about, right?
Happy Mothers Day to a GREAT mom....
XO...

My card to my Mom said: Mom, Remember all the bad things I did growing up...
inside said: I WAS FRAMED!!! It was the perfect card, since I was the perfect child! LOL
