Just to wish all you older ladies a very happy mothers day.

Hope you all get some special treats.

older ladies

enjoy your day!

Thanks Herby. I've got a primrose from Conrad's nursery and a box of choccies from the older two sons. I doubt much more will happen but I'm living in a household of males, so I'm grateful for what I get!

Herby
Thank you for good wishes, had a pot with 4 plants growing in it,a bunch of lilies,and money I am off to Ashwood nurseries after dinner to spend it, have to cook the dinner first though.

OH has just offered to clean up my cat's sick for me ("as it's Mother's Day"). How much luckier can I get!

My first Mum's Day.

My partner took Nugget for a few hours yesterday so I could go shopping with a friend. He got up early with him this morning and was going to surprise me with breakfast in bed and flowers, but I had to get up (for reasons I won't go into) so I scunnered that, but he's now getting Nugget sorted and will probably make or help make breakfast.

Happy Mum's Day to all the Mum's, Gran's and other mothering type objects out there.

jenny how thoughtful!

dh is taking lily to the office and shopping for grub so i can get ready! i also have to clean the bathroom! already cleaned kitchen/utility floor on hands n knees

My son gave me a music cd and made me a cup of tea. Very nice . Unfortunately he didnt volunteer to walk the dog so it was me who got battered by hail stones.
off to the allotment this afternoon if it stays fine. Ironing to do later - well you have everything can you

i got a lovely bunch of flowers too!
went for a drive in our new car, walked on the moors-briefly due to dreadful weather, then had coffee and cake!

Huh! I can beat ALL of that! OH also HOOVERED UPSTAIRS because it was Mother's Day. Eat your heart out girls!
(He is a lovely man really, just shows his affection in other ways.)

I didnt know men could hoover Jenny

It's a cunning plan of theirs to keep their many houseworking skills secret, but I've rumbled them now.

Now then Seedling, i know it,s Mothers day and all that, but us blokes aren't that bad. Unless we know we can get away with it.

Do you get away with it OH
Seedling

Dear Seedling, if you have a certain twinkle in your eye, you can get away with nearlly anything.
