Sunday musingsI've had a really nice Mother's Day so far - quiet and lazy hours spent at home with Scott who cooked breakfast for me as a suprise. Becca brought flowers in last night - Viola and Impatiens. I'd planned to set them out in the old whiskey barrel today, but another thunderstorm and 3" of rain made it impossible. Called my mom this morning to wish her Happy Mother's Day and to let her know we'd be over later this afternoon. As soon as she answered the phone, I knew something was wrong - she sounded so congested and just full of cold. Sounds like the flu - high fever, chills and aching. My stepdad has it, too, and she asked that we not come by for fear of being contagious. I love my mother, but our relationship has been on the rocks for the past year. I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when she asked that we not visit. On the other hand, I can't afford to get sick either. <sigh> Carrie and her fiance are having a Mother's Day cookout at 6:00 PM which I'm really looking forward to. Our entire family is so extended - mom, stepmom, fiance's mom...she's found it much easier to have us all in one place. And since we all love to eat, what better gift ?!? Not much else to write. Scott's due for a haircut, and I'm the designated stylist today ;) Cheers! 4:33:09 PM comment []
