Gail, hope you are starting to feel better. Not a good way to spend Mother's day.
I think an early night is on the agenda for me.

Morning all.

Happy Mother's Day to all those celebrating today.

Gail and Broni, hope you're soon feeling better.

June: {HUGS} Laura sounds like quite the little shopper - such thoughtful gifts.

MizT, yay ... you got your hose working. They sure are time and back savers.

Tami, a mother's weekend wouldn't fly here either. I would be happy with just one day!!!!

Well done, Suzy - now get over here and help me with my flower beds -- that's an order, young lady!!! Hugs.

I had an awful day yesterday. Hubby's aunt was totally devastated at the loss of her husband.

First of all we were about 10 minutes late for the funeral. I thought an hour and a half was enough time to get there - I was wrong. The church was packed and we ended up sitting in the balcony. Lunch afterwards in the local public school was put on by the ladies of the church.

Then off to in-laws for Mother's Day celebration. Some celebration - the guys did not plan anything!!!! KFC and only ice cream from in-laws freezer for dessert. And the women went around and set the table, cleaned up afterwards, etc. I was furious and lit into hubby. "This is one day out of the whole year. You know it's coming around the same time every year. Could you not have at least gotten a cake? Would it have hurt to set the table and put the extra chairs out? KFC, really???" I ended up not having anything to eat. I can't eat KFC; I can't eat fried foods. I told huibby to get 2 of each salad and I even wrote it down for him. He came back with 1 of each: "But it said they were the larghe size." To which I said, "What part of 2 don't you understand?" By the time the salads got to me they were pretty well empty.

CAN YOU FEEL THE LOVE???? All in all a very disappointing day. Came home and went to bed.

Hubby is working today and won't be home until 7:30 PM. It's a cloudy day but it's not supposed to rain so I guess I'll work on the flower beds. First another coffee ....

Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not? Some people have to go to work and don't have time for all that.

Knew I'd never remember that, and it made me laugh, if I ever get a topp again, so put it in now...

i can if i want..

Gail, I hope by the time you read this you are feeling better... not a good way to spend mothers day.

June, whoops, didn't mean to steal your comment, just felt the same..

Theresa, your hubby messed up this year, I hope he does better next year. I suspect that you would have been less bothered by it if you had not been having such a hard time for the last several months. Hubby says you should cheat on him to pay him back. Like that will make YOU feel better. MEN!!

Theresa, I hope your daughter did something, no matter how small, to make you feel a bit better on mothers day.

I'm just feeling down in the dumps and sorry for myself. Why do I let things like this bother me? I just figured with the 4 guys in the family something could have been planned. As I said to hubby, his mom is looking very frail and might well not be around for another Mother's Day. I guess I'm feeling guilty too because I should have known and I should have planned something. Also hubby paid for the entire meal and only his mom and sister offered to pay, which he refused and rightly so.

Brenda, it's still early here so I haven't heard from my daughter yet. I'm sure she will be in touch with me in a bit.

Got the sloshy thing going.

We did not go to my home town yesterday. On Mother's Day is when I really miss my mom and I just didn't have the heart to go there - too many memories right now.

Onwards and upwards - the weeds await my arrival.

Good Morning Friends. If you do not mind, I am ignoring Mother's Day this year. Wrote a long whine about why, but erased it, no need to dump on all of you who are enjoying your day.

Warm and sunny, headed for hot by afternoon. Will be a AC day later today.

Hugs to all with extras.

Happy Mother's day to all. I hope for those of you not having a good day/weekend things will improve. I am blessed with what I have. Hubby is not the most thoughtful, but he does not forget mother's day. I always get flowers from him and the boys. They usually wake me up by jumping on me in bed but this year they knew I needed to sleep in, and let me.

My parents and brother will be here in about 90 minutes for brunch. Need to get cooking. I actually like making brunch and there are only two things that need to get cooked. The rest is just throw on a plate or in a bowl type stuff. Talk to you all later.

MizT - hugs. I went ahead and whined anyway. I feel better now that I have it off my chest.

Tami, yoy have mentioned before how much your boys have grown. I guess if they jump on you in bed, it would surely wake you up. Have fun at your brunch.

yoy = you. My brain is in reverse or neutral today.

Gekko all....
Theresa.... It sounds like your hubby has studied under the master...IH. That's exactly the sort of thing he'd do.... and has. You have my complete sympathy. And I will give you an alibi when you want it.

Tami.... You are blessed all right. You've got a great hubby and 2 wonderful sons.

June.... Laura is an extraordinary young lady! It sounds like she has a heart as big as the whole outdoors. Please give her an extra hug from me.

Feel better, Gail.

Just got up to feed the cat, came to the computer and a message from my niece say she had lost her 14 year old son. No details but for it to happen on Mother's day makes it even worse. I am feeling sick to the stomach.

June, my thoughts going out to you and your niece. No parent should have to go through the loss of a child.

OH MY GOD. What a nightmare, June. I cannot imagine a worse thing to hear. I think I speak for everyone here ..... sending hugs, sympathy, shoulders to cry on and lots of love to your niece and the rest of the family.

JUNE, so sorry to hear of the loss of your great nephew. No parent should have to bury a child. I too feel a bit sick to my stomach hearing this, holiday deaths are so hard on the family. Hugs, thoughts and prayers go out to you and the entire family. Such a tragedy. Do keep us informed, and keep coming back here with your thoughts and feelings. We care.

June, so sorry to hear your news and what an awful day for a mother to hear such news. I read MizT's comment and really cannot add anything more. {{{HUGS}}}

Morning all,
June, I am so sorry for your family's loss. I can't imagine! [[[hugs]]]

He was Alie's age...

Gekko My Friends.
June, such sad news. Love and healing hugs to you and your family.
Dag, hope you are feeling better.
Theresa, hope the gardening is therapeutic.
MizT, hugs to you too.
Zusy and Tami, so glad you had good days.
Headache, toothache, snuffles, sore throat and swollen glands. Not wishing this on anyone.

June, such sad news thoughts going to all your family on this loss.
Broni ((HUGS)) get well soon. I was feeling sorry for my self as I had swollen glands, headache and a huge coldsore but toothache and snuffles are much worse.

Broni & Brenda.

Thanks Heidi,
Brenda it is all Gail's fault she started it!

Oh my, a lot of people not feeling well and/or going through some rough times. You are all in my thoughts.

Suzy, are you feeling better?

Time to make hubby's supper - hope to be back later.

Gail, go to the naughty corner!!!!

Brenda and Broni feel better! Gail too, even though she started it.

June, I'm still thinking of you and your niece.... my heart is breaking for all of you.

Alie is home from school still sick. I think she did too much this weekend with the performance and then helping out on mother's day.

Cyn, thought of you when I read this..

Bugger, I just caught Reggie about to eat my tree so I slid the window open and yelled at him, now he's giving me the evil eye, seriously creepy...

Death leaves a memory no one can heal
Love leaves a memory no one can steal

Thank you for that Suzy. We are no longer real close to my youngest sister and her family (her choice)but I have spoken to her this morning. They were trail bike riding and he went into a tree. It is something both his parents did since they were youngsters and he has done since he could sit on a bike. He was one of the good teenagers, a school captain in primary, joined the air force cadets in high school etc. He will be missed. I had not seen him for about 10 years.

June, my continued thoughts to you and your family at this time. What a tragic accident. I really don't know what to say but I hope it helps to know that I am thinking of you.

June, my brothers were the same. Les once went under the back of a car - he figured it was better than trying to go through it - and spent 12 months with a pin in his leg. Another time he came off riding alone in the bush and dragged himself on his elbows for 40 minutes until someone heard him calling. A couple of years ago he broke his collar bone. You'd think he would have given up on bikes long ago!! Paul hasn't injured himself on a bike, but now he has a harley who knows?

June, my father was watching my brother race when he had his heart attack.

Oh June that is awful. Condolences to your niece, sister, family and yourself ♥

Theresa.. ((HUGS)) ♥ You desperately need time out!! Let your D and SIL manage without you, 'where there is a will there is a way'!

Broni and Gail, hope you both are feeling better ♥

Brenda, hope you get well soon too, as you are off on your holidays soon. ♥

June's 'friend' ((Hugs)) and ♥
