Lucky for me, Max woke up Friday afternoon refreshed and mostly back to his old self making it much easier to leave him with a babysitter, with the least amount of guilt. Friday night was the Blame Sally CD release party and BZ got to play backup on a bunch of songs so I really wanted to be there.

Backstage, where I was not allowed, yes, I am a wee bit bitter (long story), they had hair and makeup people for the Sallies. Someone had a brainstorm and suggested BZ get his hair done too. He was game and within no time, his hair was straight. And brushed straight down on the sides of his face. Nice. Kind of a 70's metal look. Or, more like a bad wig on a transgender fellow/woman.
Anyhoo, went to a kid birthday party on Saturday afternoon and stayed into the evening drinking Margaritas getting an early start on Mother's Day. And, good thing since on Mother's Day, I got exactly 20 minutes of Mother's Day attention, from 7:40 am to 8 am. I'll take it where I can. And in addition to the candle holder from Aiden, the flower pot from Max and his two beautiful cards, I also ended up getting new cushions for our patio chairs. Now I know this isn't standard and I should have probably gotten breakfast in bed, but really, breakfast in bed would probably lead to more laundry and perhaps be more trouble than its worth (I'm remembering the baked pancakes from a few years ago).
They are so stinkin' beautiful!
ReplyDeleteDid I mention that one year I got miracle grow? Kinda goes with the patio cushions, but not as beautiful. :)
ReplyDeleteYou got miracle grow for Mother's Day? Ha! That's as good as the thigh master I got for my birthday from an ex...
ReplyDeleteNice cushions! (even if you had to get them yourself)
ReplyDeleteI must say...I like the hair in the Emmy pic tonight much better than for the Blame Sally release.
ReplyDeleteI was hopin' for a lounge chair. Instead I got the big goose egg. No, I shouldn't say that....Kiira greeted me in bed with her REALLY good school project that they had made for mother's day. It really was beautiful. Let's just say the adult sector in our house did the big goose egg!
