Typical Mothers Day

Posted by Freda Anderson in STORY-001 on
Today was mothers day. My mom wanted to do basically the typical mom mothers day activity. So we went to Home Depot and bought a bunch of different flowers and then planted them at my house. It was pretty nice. I don't much care for gardening that much, I like the way flowers look and smell... but I don't have an... I dunno, real interest in them? I like cactus and succulents. They are always cool shaped, like coral reef sometimes, and you hardly ever have to water them or take care of them. I did like planting the stuff though anyways just cause I could tell my mom really did and my little sister did too. I do like to see all the cool insects that live in the dirt like earthworms and stuff though, that's always interesting.

"So we'll need about 6 hotel rooms to fit all of us."

"I'm looking for a house that will sleep 16 people." 

......... (13 bedroom house) 

"Well, now we have 21 people, is there enough space?" 

........ (someone else rents the house before we get our deposit in) 

"Well we need about 4 hotel rooms now."

"We just need two cheap hotel rooms for the weekend."

"One room is fine; it'll just be 5 of us."

Mommy (5/8)

Posted by Oliver Dzierzewicz in STORY-001 on
Well I had off from work today so I suppose that was a plus and I got to spend some time with my mom, even if it was at home. Though one downside I would have to say was being sick. I mean having a cold can really ruin a day; you know? Though I am glad I saw my mom happy. Oh and my grandmother, cant forget her.

Mother's day

Posted by Kimberlea Talington in STORY-001 on
Omg, I can't stand anymore. I've been trying to work on this same essay for three days straight. I keep getting the same answer that won't answer my question. I'm emotionally distraught, not only from this paper, but from my life. Oh geez, I'm at my limit. I honestly can't handle much more...

At least I was able to give my mom a good mother's day. This was the first one without my dad. He usually took care of everything. I didn't know what to do, so I started with the small things. I let her sleep in, pulled up ecards with out favorite characters on them, then I did her hair. I gave her bangs like me and curled her hair. It looked really nice, once she pulled them into a ponytail-ish bun. We went out to Ruby Tuesdays and got our favorite waiter.

I guess I don't care about how I feel today. As long as mom is happy, then I will be happy to.
