A Pretty Good Mother's Day

Sunday was Mother's Day, and Farmer H went off to his SUS2.5 as usual. He did verbally wish me a happy Mother's Day before leaving at 6:00 a.m.

Around 7:45 I had a text from Genius, asking if I was too busy for a phone call. Nope. We chatted about 45 minutes. Genius was hoping I was having a special lunch or a casino trip. No, not on that specific day, because I do not like crowds. I had gotten Genius's card in the mail the day before, so he was pleased that "The post office is finally doing its work!" Sometimes his letters get to Pittsburgh a week or two after I mail them! It was a nice conversation. I don't get to talk to Genius much, he's so busy with work.

A couple hours later I had a text from The Veteran wishing me a happy Mother's Day, even though he is not required to do so, heh, heh! I've been part of his life since he was five, and always got on well with him and HOS (Farmer H's Oldest Son). I did not hear from HOS, which is fine. Farmer H himself rarely hears from him these days.

Later in the afternoon, The Pony sent a brief text. We talk so often that I did not expect a call from The Pony. We made plans a few days earlier to go out to eat later this week, when all the other mothers are home cooking again. 

Farmer H picked up Captain D's for supper, so I'm actually getting TWO Mother's Day meals! It was delicious for fast food. I don't think I've had Captain D's for over a year. Also, he gave me a card and a box of Ghirardelli chocolates.

AND, my scratchers had a $50 winner and a $25 winner. So it was one of my better Mother's Days over the years. The worst being the time my only gift was a $3 change purse. Not that I became a mother just for the gifts, of course...
