Well we had a great mother’s day this year. Or I guess I should say Mom and Grandma did.
Dad bought Mom a rocking chair and had my sisters decorate it. Check out their handiwork:
Church was great too. As always happens,Mom won the award for having the most children present. Also all the females in the family received roses to take home. 🙂
To top that off we had shish kabobs and homemade potato salad for lunch. Yum! And that was our Mother’s Day…told in 4 pictures and 77 words.
Moving on to other things:
I was browsing through my old blog today and came across a few amusing parts that I’d forgotten about. I think they’re worth reposting so I’m including them:
Written after returning from a trip to Wyoming to help take care of my sick grandmother:
“Best quote of the trip:
Mom *trying to get grandma to understand that she was confused and was being delusional again*: ‘Do you remember the other day when we were bringing you home and we stopped at the emergency room and you were saying you were on the hospital board…?’
Grandma: ‘Yes! And I was! “But I resigned and now I’m suing!!'”
“Last night I dreamed that my parents were considering putting me into a home for socially inept people. …kind of like a mental institution but housing the anti-social instead of those with not a single marble among them…”
And two ridiculous poems I wrote. One was a result of staying up too late and the other a result of some friends telling me to randomize. 🙂
A Sight Behelded
As I was walking down the street,
I met a man with six pairs of feet.
The first pair wore big red shoes.
The second pair sang the blues.
The third pair was really cheesy,
With bright green swirls that made me queasy.
The fourth pair had little bow ties;
The fifth, socks too big in size.
But the sixth pair was the best, you see,
Because with those he walked away from me.

There once was a world next door to ours
Where everyone rode in little green cars.
This neighboring place had big blue trees
And giant, purple bumblebees.
The people there were just as odd,
For they bathed in prune juice and feasted on sod.
It’s too bad this land is no longer there.
It and the earth would make quite a pair!
Lol. Good times. I miss that blog… But you know what they say (whoever ‘they’ are), “All good things must come to an end.” I’m not sure this post could be categorized as ‘good’, but it must end too. So…
‘May your dreams be filled with paper cups and lima beans’. Thank you, and goodnight!
