My mother *loved* the pitcher I painted for her from Color Me Mine. It made me feel all warm and good and squishy inside.
Other than that I just ate a lot of pizza and ice cream. Oh and we took the grandkids outside and played with a parachute. But it was funny because soon all the kids were running around doing other stuff, and the adults were still playing with the parachute.
I did nothing for mother's day. My son gave me a jewelry box...I have not one scrap of jewelry.(Metel allergy) Maybe when he gets older he will buy me some.(and not any of that cheap crap!)
The guy at the gas station gave me a red carnation for mother's day. I got out of the car, put my card in the pump, and this guy comes out of nowhere, yelling "Here, have a flower for mother's day". I jumped, startled, and replied "Thanks, that was unexpected." What he doesn't relize is that he almost got himself either taken down or punched.
I got pansies for my first (pregnant) Mother's Day. And he planted them for me, which was even better! It's a scary thing to think that Mother's Day applies to me now. Wow.
I have a weakness for YA and literary mystery.
BS degree in English (emphasis in literature) from UW-Superior in Wisconsin. Minored in journalism. I work in public libraries and a weekly newspaper. I also put my degree to use by freelance editing/proofreading.

Ha ha. Sounds like a Mother's Day well spent.

More than you want to know, I'm sure.

Cara - that's hysterical!
April, maybe you don't have a child now, but you may someday...according to some dreams about you I've been having. You promiscuous thing, you!
I LOVE Carson, he's my favorite of the Fab 5!
I like that show. Sshhhh! Don't tell anyone! ;)

That doesn't sound like a bad mother's day to me!
Meta, We used to play with a parachute in elementary school. It was my favorite gym activity...because it didn't involve actual exercise.
Cara, That reminds me of the time you tried to karate chop me when I jumped from behind a corner. hahahaha
Krista, Well, I'm maternal with Jerz, so I guess that's close enough.
Dawn, he's really funny, isn't he? I want to be friends with him.
Walrus, Don't worry...I know other guys who watch the show, too. Straight guys, I guess I should clarify.
N, He is so sweet! I bet you can't wait to hold Baby X, huh?
Hannah, No kidding. It's better than watching a "Roseanne" marathon. *shudders*
