Mother’s Day Memories
I thought it might be fun to share our personal Mother’s Day stories. Every mom has a favorite, or least favorite, Mother’s day memory. I remember my least favorite very clearly, because it happened last year. I’m not proud of the story, but it happened, so I will be the first to share the most embarrassing Mother’s Day ever, in my book. This is the day after Mother’s Day post from my personal blog:
Yesterday, the family and I went down the hill to visit my in laws. My father in law was making a ham dinner for his wife, and invited everyone to join them. What a dinner!! He did a really great job of organizing side dishes, main course and even delicious looking dessert. Did you notice the words “delicious looking?” That is because I did not partake of the deliciousness. I am suffering a 3 week long sinus infection. Food does not entice me. Instead, I dined on Tylenol sinus and a glass of wine (ok, 2 glasses of wine…BIG glasses). Word to the wise: Do NOT mix Tylenol Sinus with wine if you want to stay sober. It was not intentional that I mixed the two, but I had forgotten taking the medicine earlier. By the time we left for home, I’m embarrassed to report that I was inebriated. The kids were grouchy and angry for having to leave, so they were not being very pleasant. Unfortunately, their fighting and whining pushed me over the edge. I apparently cursed Mother’s Day, my ingrate children and motherhood as a whole. I was even told that I threw my Abba Zabba at Daniel (so sorry honey.) Marlie decided to do her usual back talking, so I told her that I wished her the same pain of childbirth (crotch ripping and all), that she caused me, someday. Obviously, I was out of control. I do not recall going to bed, but from the fuzzy sweaters on my teeth this morning, I knew that I had not even brushed (gross, I know.) This morning, the phone rings and it’s my mom. I had even gone so far as to call her last night and rant about how sucky Mother’s Day was. She was calling to see if my pity party had ended, and asked if I had been drunk. I was so completely humiliated by what a cry baby I was being. Needless to say, I had a lot of apologizing to do. Instead of breakfast, I was made to eat crow. And I can assure you, it was difficult to swallow!
Yeah, I know…pretty bad. It is the ugly truth. I’m hoping for a better one, this year. Feel free to leave your own memories in the comments section. Oh, and don’t forget to leave your Mother’s Day ideas in the comments section of this post, for a chance to win free flowers from Pro Flowers!
