I'm not sure what I'll be getting for Mother's Day ... and I really don't want much more than a meal that I don't make or clean up after and some homemade cards. But I will be letting my husband know he can save his money ... or time to download, in the case of one item ... on the following six things.
Here are six things I definitely don't want this Mother's Day ...
I think, perhaps, they are called "mom jeans" because of the higher waist. But ... nope.
For the moms out there, KFC released its very first romance novella, which you can download for free online. I'm no prude. I do enjoy adult time. I'd just prefer to keep KFC out of the mix.
Let's move on.
Way to multi-task, people who have these.
But, let's be real. When I put on my slippers, I want to be done working and cleaning. I don't want to feel guilty for not buffing the floors while I walk to the kitchen to grab something from my chocolate stash before I sit down to watch my shows on Netflix.
I know I'm old fashioned. I'm not a big taker of selfies. On the rare occasion I'd like a photo of myself, I just ask the person next to me if they could snap one. I know. Crazy!
Happy Mother's Day! I hope it's a fun day filled with everything you want - whether it's some peace and quiet or all of the above. I won't judge. Actually, I'd love to see that selfie of you in your clear knee mom jeans, buffing the floor with your slippers, reading your romance novella, while dabbing the play dough perfume behind your ears and picking a stem from your donut bouquet.
That would be pretty glorious.
