Mother's Day remakes
May. 9th, 2005 12:10 amI'm sheepish... I nearly forgot to call my mom in Atlanta, and didn't get her until after 11pm there. But I did a good job with
patgreene today... the kids and I made her breakfast, I got up early (7:30am) to take James in for rehearsal, got everyone to church, and afterward while Pat took Kevin to a matinee the rest of us cleaned under and removed the old sofa and futon, down to scrubbing the stained linoleum. Then I brought in her dinner (take-out from Hobee's).
And then brought in new living-room furniture.
tenacious_snail came over and helped me rent a cargo van, then we drove to San Mateo and picked up the leather sofa I'd bought last weekend. Then a walnut bookshelf headboard for Pat's bed, while Pat was off getting her hair redone. Tonight I assembled a lounge chair that I've had in storage, and now the living room is beginning to look nice. My gift to Pat, in appreciation for the mother that she is to our kids, as well as the support she gives me :).
