Moms 2012
Sunset at the M-cove Saturday evening |
This is the first actual holiday (week-end) I've had off in several years now- (about time!) Usually I have an emotional day having lost my Mom to malignant illness over a decade ago. This year I'll be honoring her memory with a rare daytrip visit to see some of my siblings, n extended family at a BBQ in the area where I grew up West of Boston. The weather is forecast 80F warm, n not rainy.
Hopefully I get to see alot of fun Little Ones, some new I've yet to meet to distract me. All I have to do is wake up hours earlier than usual n not be too sleepy...

Been a while since I have been here... felt good coming back!
Snaggle - sounds like a wonderful way to spend the special day... hope the drive was easy and the company a joy!
Thinking of you.
Be blessed.
Ajey, thanks for coming back to check in on me. Hope you enjoyed the pics. Good to see you here too!
CJ, Great to hear from you again! I miss your PPPs, tales of Morgans, n Island folklore of NZ. Hope all is well, I continue to pray daily for you n your family, btw. My day was good n full of dear people, thanks.
We had a great time visiting!! Must do it again!
I hope you had a good Mother's Day, Snaggle. Sounds as if it was going to be!
Hey there young lady!
Cool pics and hopefully you had a smashing Mother's Day.
Sounds like your day was good. I hope you didn't feel too tired to enjoy it. I'm sorry you lost your mother so long ago, I hope your day was still enjoyable.
MB, Yes, a good time. Hope you had a good ride back with the boys. Thanks again for those new books!
Lynn, We all had a good time, Sure beats moping around like I usually do. Plus alot of old home friends were there n plenty of goodies to eat, like Triffle.
G, Well I felt young next to my Bros 83 yr old MIL at least! The ride was ok, the kids were reasonably loud but not screaming or throwing fits, n the weather was spectacular for the BBQ with plenty of chairs n shade. Thanks.
LLcoolJ, I had to wear sunglasses at times to stop squinting, n only was really tired on the hour ride home. I only got misty a few times- can't be helped- Alot of other folks with no Moms were there also. It was thanks-
COmmented on this one too, that iPhone rejection day.
And now that weekend has come and gone, with nice memories and pictures of it.
I had planned a Mother's Day post too, but this new day job plum wiped out my energy and plans. however, it's always a beautiful moment to celebrate if I wish.
Leaving soon to go birthday gift shoppping and then drop the kid off on the other side of the river for a sleepover party. yay! What shall Jim and I do tonite? I can think of something fun!!! wink wink, waaaaaay tmi. :)
xooxxo
JanF, that's alot of bummers! I still can't comment with my phone, tho can find my page, but eats too many minutes to figure out.
My choice lately is always Rest! I've been so over-burnt-out-crispy-crunchy- I could sleep for 3 days straight.
