Daily Notes- May 9th- Happy Mother's Day


 From Martha Stewart.  A do it yourself folding paper pop up card.  The directions were insane. Laughable.  The comments on the directions were hilarious.  The directions make no sense at all.  I noticed this back in the 80's in Martha's magazine.  Even for recipes- the directions were so screwed up.

My son called.  We had a lovely chat and then lost the connection.  He's well and sounds happy.  He has a week or so before his next vaccine appointment.  I think it must be incredibly difficult to live alone during the COVID stuff.  To not even have a partner in the house to argue with or make sandwiches for.

The Sun comes and goes.  We want to go to DQ for my Mother's Day ice cream treat but......I was hoping for sunshine.  My cross the road neighbor is in Boston visiting her son and family.  I haven't seen any evidence of children or dogs or bikes on the road.  Usually, in other Times, it's a regular circus of activity out there.

I think we will order Chinese Take Out for sure.  But that's about as far ahead as I have gone- with thinking.  I am looking forward to tomorrow- returning books to the library.  Picking up two new ones.But first...I have to pick out colored pencils for the next coloring page.  The mandala looks like it has roses. So I am thinking several shades of red. Orange red, blue red etc.  Or I will use Martha's color selection in the card up top.  YES!!! I will do that.

Have a lovely day today- all of you!!!!
