This time of year is such a mixed bag for me. It makes me realize how much I miss my Son. It also makes me realize how much I miss my Mom. It's not usually a "happy" day for me.
Don and I were invited to go to Bush Gardens with his ex (we get along great, she's a really cool chick!), his daughters and his daughters husband. I really wanted to go but Don is so exhausted we decided to spend the day at home. I worry about him, working these two jobs. The man only gets 4 hours of sleep a night M-F. So....we're gonna grill up some steaks, I'm gonna have me a beer or two (hehehe) and just relax.
We've got a busy day tomorrow. We've gotta be in Va Beach at 8am (means we gotta get up at like 7), One of his friends works for a landscaping business, so he's gonna go pick up 20 juniper bushes...he's getting a really good deal on them. He uses them to do bonsai trees with. I'm not sure what he's going to do with all of them. He's been talking about teaching some classes so maybe he'll do that. Though I don't know when he' have time to! lol...
Then we're gonna go watch Don's nephews baseball game. My SIL picked up a huge bottle of the Paul Mitchell hair gel that I use because I couldn't find it at the store I normally but it at here. And cause SIL gets a good discount on it lol. Then we've gotta be back down here
Don has promised me that we'll all plan a trip to Bush Gardens another time. But hell...we usually like to try to go at the first sign of warm weather if not we don't go until late October. It's just too damn hot and too many people!
I was up all night again. Yeah! Again! I don't know what in the hell is going on with that but it's happening way too much lately!
As you can tell, I don't have a whole lot to report. I hope that you all have a wonderful Mother's day!!

I'm so spoiled....

If you're looking for good lighting you should really check out this site. I've been looking for some new lamps. I found these that I really like.
The blue would look really great with the quilt that I've gotten. I'm thinking about ordering them, just want to ask Don what he thinks of them.
About a month ago I bought a new quilt for our bedroom. I'd been buying those really nice Jacquard kind of comforters, but with two small dogs...every time they'd go in my room (they love to go wake "Daddy" up!) they'd end up pulling strings on the comforter.
Last year Don bought me a gorgeous comforter set at JC Penny's, we paid $250 for the damn thing and within a month it was destroyed by my damn dogs...anyway, that's why I decided on a quilt this time. The only problem is that nothing in my room matches the quilt. So I'm slowly replacing everything. Curtains, dust ruffle, sheets...everything.
Mother's day came early for me. Yesterday I got a package in the mail. Don ordered me a bonsai tree charm for my charm bracelet, it was too big for the bracelet so I put it on a chain. He also told me to go get the sewing machine that I'd been drooling over. I haven't sewed in forever so it's gonna take me a while to learn how to use this thing properly but I can't wait to get started. I didn't think to buy some thread and bobbins when I bought it, I just assumed that it came with some...it didn't lol.
Here's the machine I bought...
This weekend Don and I have to go to VA to pick up a bunch of Juniper bushes that he's buying (for bonsai's) so we're gonna hit up a fabric store (how can there NOT be a fabric store here??) so I can get started! I'm excited.
Then Rusty called me last night and asked me what I wanted for mother's day. I told him about this really cool mother's ring that I found so he gave me his credit card info and said "order it!" Yay! Lol... Look how gorgeous this is...
It was pretty easy for me birthstone wise... (I wanted to include Don and his girls in my ring too) Don's birthday is the day after Rusty's, and his youngest daughter C's birthday is less than a week before theirs! His oldest daughter's bday is four days after mine. So I got one for August, one for September, and one for April (the month we got married). So mine will be green, blue, and white. I can't wait till it comes in!
What do you want for Mother's day?
