I met a friend for a walk earlier this morning, then we did some groceries. We had stopped into the drug store as my friend wanted to check on some of the rejuvenating cream specials. The saleslady told us we could move down one section as that line was targeted for the 60 plus women. Well, we were pleased to move down to the 40 plus anti-aging section! The salesgirl said she even uses the stuff although she's in her mid-thirties, catching the problems early, so to speak.
It's a cooler day today, Mother's Day. On Friday, L had given me a vegetable plant she grew from seed at school. This morning I got some new potholders and some cut flowers (always a favourite gift). For some reason I'm already exhausted, but the day must go on. K and I have to do some math review. L went off to work then has to finish up a painting for art class. We plan to go to M's mother later on in the evening. We have to somehow watch the Amazing Race season finale tonight.
It's frightening reading the news about the unrest in Pakistan, thousands of civilians on the move.
Well, Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there!

Ohh your mom's day gifts made me smile for you
Happy Mother's day. My son has always been a bit different and over the last few years that has turned to him rebelling against stuff and one of the things he rebelled against is anything he thinks is "commercial" so I did not get anything from him. :o(
Oh well I can hope for something on my birthday
i love to receive cut flowers as well! hhhmmmmmm . . . it is news to me that they sort the anti-aging creams by age bracket. too funny!!
happy mother's day. be good to you and get some rest!!
Loved your line about catching the problems early. You have a great sense of homor! Pakistan is going to be horrific. I take an interest because my favourite cricket player is now a politician there.
Flowers are the best gift a girl cn get in my opinion. I love them and often buy them just for me.
It sounds like you had a wonderful day with your family. The very best kind of Mother's Day :-)
Toni, I read your guest post today, congrats! My mother-in-law is still waiting on a call from one of her sons... she sort of expects it on Mother's Day.
Julie, I didn't realize how busy I sounded until you said 'get some rest', thanks.
Lilly, great idea, I'm going to start buying more flowers just for me. Interesting that you are a cricket fan among many other things.
Japra, it was a perfect day, totally unplanned.
