Happy Mother’s Day!
May 11, 2014 in Lymphoma by Reta Reed
To all you great Mothers out there, I hope your day was at least half as good as mine was. My darling kids walked to Walmart yesterday to get gifts and surprised me this morning with a giant balloon, funny yet tear-jerking cards, some pink daisies, and a box of my favorite chocolates – Turtles. I also got a group hug 🙂  I then got busy with a list of me-do’s (can’t call ’em honey-do’s anymore).
I colored my roots. Got paint from Home Depot and painted the exterior trim around my front door. Installed my storm door. Installed a peep hole in the front door. Â Attached a kick plate to the front door. Spray-painted a piece of furniture. Attached the drain to my bathroom sink since I had previously covered some crazing around the drain hole. Did three loads of laundry. Cleaned the wood floors. Vacuumed downstairs. Watched Long Island Medium with Kristen.
I had boundless energy today. I feel loved. I feel appreciated. I feel proud. I feel…tired now.
Reta, Jeff and I stomped through the world, like we owned it. He was my best friend. My heart goes out to you. you are like an oak. I just washed the last of my mother’s blankets. Take Care. Hold Strong. James
Made me tired just reading it. Sounds like you had a wonderful weekend. Take Care.
