Not only is this a month of aging for myself, but my Mom hit her own milestone.
She's 60-years-young. I know she won't mind me divulging her age since she doesn't look a day over 45. Or is it 35? Mom - what was I supposed to say?
To celebrate, I copied an idea I've seen several places - 60 gifts.
I would be fibbing if I didn't share that wrapping all that bounty wasn't a bugger.
My Mom's a quilter from way back. She tried to pass on these skills to me. But I never understood the difference between a "bias" and any other word in the English language.
Sewing emergencies for me include hot glue or masking tape.
One memory I have growing up is listening to my Mom's albums. There was mad dancing to the Ray Coniff singers and B.J. Thomas. What?
It will be all raindrops falling on Santa's head this year.
I expect my Mom to use this Mr. Dramamama pen when doing all things administrative at her job. A promotion would soon follow.
Mom - I'm glad you were born.

ReplyDeleteN: Me too!
My birthday's coming up in 2 weeks. I will be 26.. I won't mind if you decide to buy me 26 gifts.
ReplyDeleteKP: You really need to earn a number of gifts that high. By turning 60 or 100. Of course, you can't necessarily enjoy them as much at that point...
