moms birthday

It was a nice day.
It's my moms birthday. I wore her lipstick today. I could picture my mom rolling her eyes at me for wearing it.....but at the same time she'd get a kick out of it.

I took a dozen white roses to her grave.
My older sister was at the cemetery when I got there........we sat and
talked for a bit.
My other sister text me this morning " I won't make it to the cemetery until right when it's closing....if you go there today tell mom i miss her and wish she was here to make us laugh." So when my older sister went to the woods that backs up to the cemetery so that she could pee, I told mom what my other sister text me this morning.........it was cute because just then the wind got hold of the mouth of my bottled water and it played a pretty little whistle or tune. I couldn't help but smile.
After I left the cemetery I shopped for a birthday gift for daughter. She asked for an inexpensive casual digital watch.
I found four that I liked .I saw a cute girl around daughters age shopping. I asked her which watch she liked best. She picked the one that I liked the best too.......so it's the one I bought.

When I got home from shopping I called my dad. We had a nice little talk......his mood was good......he laughed when we shared a funny story about mom.......and he was happy about spending time with one of his great grand sons today.:O).

A man was knocking on my front door today and there was a car parked out front that I didn't recognize. I didn't open my front door......went to the dining room window, opened it and asked the guy what he wanted. He had a flower delivery for me. I could see he was holding flowers so I opened the door. In retrospect I shouldn't have because any psycho killer can bring flowers to your door as a ruse to get you to open it. Didn't Bundy wear a fake cast?  But as it turned he really was a flower delivery guy.
Boyfriend sent some pretty daisies to me. He's in Colorado.   It was sweet of him.

I made french toast and bacon for me and daughter for supper. It's the best meal I've had in months. Seriously, it was delicious.................and I baked a cake to celebrate moms birthday. Daughters friend up the street has a little brother and sister. They've been invited to come over tomorrow to eat the cake.
The weather here today was beautiful.......sunny, warm, very low humidity, and a light breeze.......beautiful..................and just what the doctor ordered.
