For a variety of reasons, this Mother's Day on my end is going to be laid back (take-out barbecue, paper plates and paper napkins) and VERY low-key.
The last week has seen the deaths of two very good friends, and I have spent it in the car ferrying parents to and fro to doctors' appointments, grocery shopping, etc. That, and the fact that we are trying....trying...to get ready to head north.
I had to make a Wal-Mart run this morning, and ran into these GORGEOUS roses...in my favorite color...for $9.98!!!!! Now, if the Headmaster had ordered these from our local florist, they would have been a fortune. I couldn't resist.
So, there will not be a really pretty tablescape to show, but I did want to share these beautiful roses! Head to your local Wal-Mart! I may yet make another trip!
Happy Mothers' Day, y'all!
Well, I am disappointed with the no tablescape, but I am glad you are relaxing the rules for guests. You need a big dose of chill pills after the week you have had. Get some rest and enjoy those roses.
ReplyDeleteNancy, sad to hear this has been a difficult week for you. I'm sorry for your loss. Enjoy your beautiful roses and relax a bit this weekend.
