If you are a person who happily celebrates it, happy mother's day; if it's a hard day for you, for whatever reason, I'm sorry, and I hope it's passing quickly for you.
I got my mom what she wants, which is caramel corn from Garrett's, and a fun card. She doesn't want much, but what I did made her happy, so that works for me.
I've been puttering about today, getting stuff done, and while I don't feel like I did all that much, by mid-afternoon my body was pretty clear that it was time to stop, sit down, and quit it.
But I have the airbed inflated, as well as space in the room for the airbed to fit. And bedding to put on the bed. And I did other exciting things like paying my bills and cleaning the coffeemaker. And, I don't know what else, it doesn't feel like that much, but I'm tire, all right.
Very much hoping that for the rest of the week, I will continue to say "no jury duty tomorrow."
Thank you to Angela for mentioning the BHG recipe for quiche: we're going to give it a try. Mom had a recipe that she used many years ago, but she wasn't pleased with how it came out this time, so we're trying other ways.
We are so fortunate to be able to tell our moms we love them.
ReplyDeleteI got mine a box of different cheeses--in part because she loves them, and because my dad would have loved it, too, and what would have been his 95th is coming right up. She was widowed just a few months before the shutdown and it just seemed the right thing to give. Sweets are not her style, but cheese is.
