    Default Mother's Day (in da USA)

    And whatever other countries celebrate it this weekend, as opposed to months ago like the UK does!

    Are you getting anything for your mother or grandmother, if you have one?

    I'm making my Mom two more couch pillows. I made her one for her birthday and she wants a full set of them. They'd be really fast to sew up, except that one the one I made for her birthday, I added a nice decorative edge to the pillows by whip stitching around them in coordinating thread by hand, so now I have to do for the other two to be consistent, and it's taking ages. XD

    I suppose I'll pick my mom up some flowers on the way to see her. Maybe a couple for my grandma too. The three of us stick together on Mother's Day. I hope my grandma doesn't make us go to her boring-ass church again though. And I really want to go see Babies.

    Babies is coming out this weekend?!!?

    I want to go so badly, but I'd feel awkward telling my Mom I'm going to see that, because she'll think I'm secretly pregnant, between that and watching so much TLC and the eating thing today. XD

    I don't really have any money this year, but I'll try and buy her dinner on Sunday, if I can't. I'm not really sure what else I can do.

    My brother bought and sent her flowers, my sister sent her chocolate covered strawberries and my dad bought her wine. I'm poor so I can... shampoo her carpet? D: I wish I had money

    I got my mother a bracelet and necklace set.

    I'll be going to the cemetery and leaving flowers for my grandmother on my mom's side as well.

    I got my Mom her favorite perfume, Miss Dior Cherie by Dior.

    And also a pretty midnight blue cocktail/formal dress. Cause every girl, even Moms like to dress up and feel pretty.

    I'll be mailing flowers.

    Because nothing says I Love You like something that comes from a box.

    I'm going to... call my mother.

    Is it just me, or does mother and father's day become a bigger deal every year? Or is it because I'm getting older?

    I just got home about 15 minutes ago...worked 7am to 9pm non stop because of friggin Mother's Day.

    I'm going to send my mom flowers because I own a florist and I live several states away and Mother's Day is one of the busiest times of the year so it's really the only thing I have time to do.
