I have come to the conclusion that my mother has lost her last marbles since we have moved away. Its been 3 years.

Christmas 1. Robes for me and my husband
Christmas 2. Robes for me and my husband, and back massaging pads, one each, the kind you can even plug into your car!

This year she called me... Asking what we wanted for christmas... I said... NO ROBES! and explained how she had repeted this gift the last two years... she laughed at herself and pledged to do better!

Christmas 3. Back massaging pads, one each, the kind you can even put in your car!

I almost peed my pants when I opened it and my Mom almost peed in hers when I called and told her! Now I can line the sofa and loveseat with back massaging pads! Now I need more plugs!


Ok... want a hair story? I was 10 and mom married this guy... Tom. He was the hairest man on the planet! and it was so dark brown it was almost black and as curly as can be! We had two bathrooms and me and my sister would fight over ours... well, I gave up one day, when I was like 13, I ventured into my moms bathroom, which was a no no as she did not trust us around her make up... I was going to use the shower and opened the sliding shower door and stopped dead in my tracks! I saw little curley black hairs everywhere! it was on the floor, clinging to the door! and even on the soap! I all but screamed and ran out of there... I was convinced it was butt hair! Butt hair on the soap! Ugh! I had nightmares about it for years!

Best present.... A granite rock from my husband with the word Certainty etched in it! It was just what I needed!
