HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY

Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers in the world. I had a nice quiet day. Yesterday Jackee and Dominique surprised me when they came to wish me Happy Mother's Day a day early. It was such a nice surprise! Marcy and Demetrius came over so he could do our yard for us. So they got to visit with them, also. We really appreciate Demetrius coming over and helping us without us even asking him to. A little after they all left Roxy came over for a couple of hours. So I had a lot of family time yesterday, which I always love. Today Marcy went to Mass with Bill and I where we met Chris. We took Marcy home afterwards and we went home to a relaxing quiet day.

On Friday I received a beautiful bouquet of flowers from my baby brother, Andy, addressed to the Matriarch. I am the oldest of 8 siblings, 3 which are now sadly deceased. We lost our father in 1988 and our mother in 2008. My siblings and I have been quite prolific so our part of our family tree has plenty of branches. Being the eldest, I am now the matriarch by default. I have a fantastic family and will gladly accept the title.

Bill is still not able to sleep in the bed yet since his surgery for the implant. He is still having pain from this. We will be so happy when the pain is gone and he can get back to doing things he did before. We were planning on going to Phoenix in June to visit Andy, Genelle and their daughters, but, it looks like he won't be ready for a plane ride by then. I am so disappointed, but, I am happy for what we do have.

Well, I am going to finish watching Drop Dead Diva and then Army Wives and go to sleep. Have a blessed week!
