Question of the Week- #105
If you are a Mom- what did you do for Mother's Day? What did you WANT to do for Mother's day? Did the two things align?
I wanted a nap. I kept falling asleep only to be woken up by various things. The nap never happened but I did get some very thoughtful gifts from my husband, daughter, dog and family. THANK YOU! I really do appreciate it.
Went to church...got a burger...took care of the kids and husband...and begged for Thai food for dinner (normally I would have gotten a lot of protesting, so this was my "special" request for the day). Really I would have loved some "time off." Maybe away from the kids and husband for a while (is that wrong??). Some me time would have been nice.
ReplyDeleteOur Mother's Day widened the gap between the uptight yuppies (Mike's brother and his wife) and the hipster slobs (Mike and me). We had a very nice lunch. Remarkably there's one restaurant that we all love, so we knew Mike's mom would love it too. It's a bar, but serves great food. Not a popular Mother's Day spot, so no wait, uncrowded, nice and relaxing. But it's always tense between Mike and his brother. His brother bought a huge, expensive flower basket that was delivered to her house on Friday. We stopped at a farmers' market and bought her a bouquet. Both flowers were nice, but they really showed the differences in our ideals.
