My Mother's Day was spent making curtains for my Mother In Law. She decided to work that day so I had a chance to sneak over and measure her kitchen windows and make the curtains for her. Dewaine went over and hung some vertical blinds that she had been fighting with. She lost two very close friends this year and her favorite niece a couple of weeks ago so she was very depressed on Mother's Day. She is 73 and we are really starting to worry about her health and state of mind. But she did seem pleased at what we had done...she cried a lot tho. Dewaine took me out to eat steak around 4 p.m. He did not get me a card or anything...said he could not find one good enough for me! Yeah right!!!
My son was busy with his wife's family most of the day but did come over around 6 p.m. with a gift, card and my grandson! That was the BEST gift of the day!
At the beginning of the day, I started having a pity party for myself...I was thinking about my mother that I never got a chance to know since she died when I was 3 and about my two oldest sons from a previous marriage that don't speak to me...but then I started thinking that I had so much to be thankful for...and I snapped right out of it!!! I am sorry some of you did not have a good day...when you feel like that, just turn it around to see the other side and how much you DO have to be thankful for...it will brighten your day when you do that!!!
