Yup, I have to wait till October. As you know I've came back from Brazil a few days ago and there was a lot of buzz about Mother's Day so I suggested I should get a present. I only got an eye rolling and a smile. :)

Happy Mother's Day to those girls that celebrate it today!!

I gave my mom a beer and she got all happy I "Remembered" mothers day. I was just giving her a beer because it is hot out.

I want pizza for dinner but I know all restaurants are bless'ed swamped today.

We celebrate Mother's Day on Mothering Sunday to avoid confusion.

Or to create it...

Either way, no dead folk involved.

My mom was a poo, scootered about, we had no time to get food, so I quad damaged her.

For reference, I mixed a mudslide milkshake with four ounces of rum.

This of course backfired. I'd been suggesting a pizza order all day. She ate half a pound of cheddar and then passed out.

I am a VERY HORRIBLE caretaker.

Further reference: When I went to see Iron Man 3 on my birthday, on my own dime, she went and bought a bless'ed scooter off money she got from grandma. Now I've got a hell of a time trying to adult over my own mother. But now she has a bless'ed scooter!
