Who's got Mother's Day plans?

[MrScorpio]

US: Dinner on me and my brother for the cousin who raised us.


Gonna be good.!

[Redstone]

1. We're going to go the the same Clam Shack we've gone to every year

since the Mother's Day when Mrs R was pregnant.

We searched all over, that year, to find a restaurant that wasn't jammed full. Ended up happily eating a terrific lunch at the Clam Shack, so we've done it every year since.

And they even have outstanding cheeseburgers to the shellfish-allergic like me.

13. I'm going to have a great mother's day

I asked to stay home instead of go out to eat (too crowded, too expensive). The teens will help me cook, we'll watch a movie as a family together, and they're going to help me work in my garden.

I'm a gardening nut, so I'm going to take advantage of the free labor. hehe

And the icing on the cake would be nice weather!

24. Sounds great. I hope the weather is perfect. nt

2. I don't have a mother

anymore. So, it's just another Sunday. I'll call my dad to make sure he's okay. Happily, it's Pentecost this year, so I'm doing confirmations, which will be a distraction.

Hope all you moms have a good day! :hi:

3. We're going to

Cirque du Soleil--Corteo. It should be cool.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

4. Dinner for my Mother with all the kids. Reservations have been

made. Taking Friday off without pay in order to make an out of town trip, hopefully, If everything goes right. *fingers crossed*

7. I'm going to visit Mom on Friday (there's a tea at the assisted living

facility where she lives) and then my grandkids and my daughters are coming for the weekend. I'm excited!

[logosoco]

8. My mother is going to be in Europe on Mothers Day

bad time to be going there, i know, but she's 73 (a very spry 73) and she has wanted to do this for years (her dad was born in Sisily ).
But I do get to celebrate motherhood with my daughter and her new son!!!!!(but i get to do that everyday!!)

[HillYesSheWill]

9. none

[jojo54]

10. Not quite sure yet.

Been too busy nursing pregnant daughter who had a seizure with all test coming back negative. I guess that's a good thing, but it still leaves questions unanswered.

I'll be happy just to be with both my daughters and 4 grandbabies. LOVE to roll & play on the floor with them. (the babies, that is).

11. daughter has a frickin' softball tournament scheduled this weekend (and an out-of-town one at that),

as she does *every* single* *frickin'* *damn* *weekend* between now and the 4th of July. The Fourth is the ONE weekend not scheduled between now and the end of July/first week of August. (some *might* get cancelled if they either qualify for "nationals" early, or if it looks like qualifying is hopeless. ) A rain-out would be nice too, but only if rainout of a local tournament. Spending megabucks to travel (gas & inflated hotel costs) THEN getting rained out absofuckinlutely sucks.

WHAT Mother's day? None for me. (of course, they could get eliminated on Saturday, then Sunday might be a semi-OK day. But I would be an evil mom to even mention that.)

ACK. :banghead: :banghead:

[DarkTirade]

12. My mom's about 1200 miles away, so I'm not planning on all that much.

:shrug:

[auntAgonist]

14. none here.

I doubt anyone will even remember or know it's Mother's day.

[AwakeAtLast]

15. Me! Me!

My Mom, Dad and sister will be visiting to see WMUette play soccer. Then we will spend the rest of the weekend doing whatever we feel like doing. I don't think we have all been together on Mother's Day weekend for quite a while. My sister is moving to Austin, so it will probably be another long while before it happens again. I'm looking forward to it!

[Skittles]

16. emailing phone card pin numbers to troops in Iraqs

telling 'em to call their moms :D

[SeattleGirl]

17. Going to see my MIL on Saturday. Sunday, I don't know.

Gonna be a difficult day, with mom only being gone 3 months. :cry:

[orleans]

18. i'm sure it will be hard for you.

when my dad died (years ago) i broke down crying when i saw father's day cards at the store. i did the same thing when i went to buy my mom an easter card and saw the duel parent cards--i'd never be able to buy those again either. it was really sad.

:hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:

[SeattleGirl]

20. I know.

I almost can't bear the thought of it this year, but instead of hiding out, I think I'll call my siblings. I know they will also be having a difficult time.

And thanks for the hugs. :hug:

[MrScorpio]

25. I feel you

But I'm sure that you'll be fine :hug:

[lost-in-nj]

19. We can't go out because she's convalescing. I think I'll cook up some ribs or bratwursts for us...

and get some nice beer.

[LeftyMom]

21. I'm going out of town without my Mom.

Bad kid. I'm fired.

[woo me with science]

23. Thinking of the victims of recovered memory therapy,

both the parents devastated by false abuse accusations and the children drowning in hatred and self-pity. Hoping that they will see through the garbage of their therapy before they lose each other forever.

I'll be working on a presentation to get rid of more of these charlatan therapists.
