It's Mother's Day...Big Deal

I hate Mother's Day.  My first memory of Mother's Day (from my own perspective) was my husband (at the time) telling me he got me nothing on my first Mother's Day because I wasn't HIS mother, never taking into consideration that the four month old son we shared couldn't drive yet.  I knew on that day that divorce was unavoidable.

Today I will celebrate Mother's Day for MY mother, because she is 83 and she survived me with most of her mind intact and me alive (I'm sure she wanted to kill me more than a million times).  She still shakes her head at me, tells me I'm nuts and that I should stop hanging out with musicians, make friends with people who live close and grow old where she can keep an eye on me.

I will give her a gift, have a nice cookout, drink a few beers with her in the sun and tell her that I will be going to a few different cities to see the Eyes, one of my dearest friends STILL lives in Delaware and pretty soon HIM will be touring and I will be running around like a chicken with my head cut off to see them.

Mom will shake her head and tell me I'm crazy, to be careful and make sure to take lots of pictures so she can see these kooks I choose to surround myself with. 

My gift to myself will be to continue to do what I do, because even though I don't receive gifts for being a Mom, my gifts are all around me.

    I'm new to trig...but just read your blog about your mother's day...Funny but that was the same line my husband used at Mother's day prior to me standing my ground and taking back the day I DESERVED!!!  Funny how men's minds all seem to work in unison ,they just need a woman to do the thinking for them when it comes down to it!!

    Hope you had a better one this year!

    Mother's day for my mom was pretty much normal.... Running  like crazy to all places, hurrying our sweet asses to see our grandmas and so on.... Ahh...I have some years before I start celebrating that day !!!  Nevertheless, hope you had a great day !!

    WOW! We have more in common than I thought! I hope you had a nice one. I did my usual Sunday routine....laundry, dishes, dinner, and to top it all off.....never saw or heard from Heather.....so my mother's day was a typical day. Tori did make me a bowl of Capn' Crunch cereal......lol! Maybe I will have better luck on Father's day???
