Mother's Day

My mom is the best.

This seems like a pointless entry since it is unlikely that anybody will read it on this dilapidated site, nevertheless

To all the mothers out there, I wish you a pleasant day.
If you have a close relationship with your mother, I hope that you're at least able to drop her a line today.
If you've lost your mother, I hope that you're able to take a few minutes to think some happy thoughts.

Soon we will need a holiday for bottoms in gay marriages. I propose holding it on the season opener of GLEE.

Haha, I have to be nice and stuff since Dreaming is a mommy, plus my mother will probably kick my ass if I make any off color jokes about milf hunting or whatnot. Oh, I have an idea... musical tribute. Yes, that will be classier than my usual lowbrow antics...

Happy Mothers Day to all the life producers out there. It is TRULY a special role.

And what beautiful memories I have of my mother. It just doesn't seem like that long ago that she passed away, even though it's been a few years. I know she is waiting up in heaven for me, and others.

Even though my mother has been gone for over six years, I still would like to pay tribute to her here on RIA. She was a wonderful lady who was a very giving person.

Happy Mother's Day. For those who believe the Lord promised you when your mother and father are gone he will take in. He will never leave you or forsake you,. You can stand on these words.

Since I live far away from my Mom, it's great day to phone her, and talk to her for a few hours.

Happy Mother's day to all you moms out there. hope you have a nice day and get to do something nice. { everyone expect for my mother-in-law who has decided to play the bi*** and screw over her grandkids once again we are getting you the same thing you got our kids for their birthdays...Nothing}
I hope you ladies enjoy your day with what you want to do. at least most of you deserve a nice day.

Mom's are special. The diserve to be recognized for what they do and how hard they work.

Well, I had hoped to have Stark's garden done by Mother's Day, but it was, logistically, more of a project than I was aware of. Our plot is 400 sq ft, or 20 x 20. After living in farming and ranching country for six years now, I was thinking that this would be a two or three day affair and that wed be picking corn on the fourth. I'm not one for doing things half-assed and am known for building things strong-to-last.

My first step was to call Officer Bill...a retired cop who put his life's savings into gardening equipment. For 40 bucks, he brought out the tiller and chewed the ground up nicely for me. Actually, he charged me 2 bucks for the tilling and 38 bucks for the standup routine on city-slickers-trying-to-do-their-first-garden. (Joke's on him. It would have cost me 60 bucks to rent a tiller). We also spent around 200 bucks on the basic arsenal of gardening tools, like beaver traps and dynamite. Everything else was made from odds and ends. (Wait until Stark discovers that I used the high-grade Plaster of Paris that she special-ordered for her sculpting projects to anchor the fence post into the ground. Stuff dries fast! Shes gonna be pissed.).

Had a few setbacks. When I was raking the rocks and such out of the plot, I ran into a spent hypodermic syringe. I just knew that something was amiss when my 83 year old neighbor, Francis, knocked on my door, holding a bong and Disraeli Gears on 8-track. Well, I had to call HAZMAT to remove the needle and that not only ate up three days, but an additional two days in jail after my body lit up their very sensitive equipment. When I got out of the slammer, I had to re-rake the garden due to massive footprints that were left behind by some creature that had trespassed. There was also a foul aroma.

I did manage to get the white and yellow corn and green beans (doing okay) in the ground, along with the acorn squash (died immediately), and melons (were taking turns doing an hour-by-hour vigil).

But, I did put a good fence in, which is buried around a foot into the ground to keep the rabbits out. (Stark wouldn't let me electrify the chicken wire.) I think I'll invest in some smudge pots and maybe this stuff will be ready to eat by NEXT Mothers Day...

A day to honor your Mom is a good day, but everyday should be this day, because when she is gone you can't make up for it then. I think Mom's day is there to remind us of this very fact and to make us reach out to our Mother's and Grandmothers so that they know we love and appreciate them.

Another Hallmark holiday to worry about.

A great day, and a great way to thank my mother, for having me and putting up with me the way she did. She must have enjoyed it though, because one of her favorite past times is telling people stories about me when I was growing up. I'm glad the memories make her happy. It's also a great way to thank my wife, for giving me five wonderful children, and making me a dad. And we enjoy celebrating with our daughters that are now mothers themselves and have given us six beautiful grandchildren. God Bless all the Moms!

Would not be able to write this rating if it was.nt for MAM, the ultimate holiday......

Without them, our species would die. It's the least we can do.

Honoring the woman who gave birth, nurtured, raised, taught, and guided you is all right in my book.

A great day to sit back and reflect on everything that Mommy dearest has done for you and to thank her for it. Let's face it, nobody is ever going to love us like our mommas.

hey, I'm all for it! Being a mom is grueling, non-stop work. Worth every second, but definitely tough. Don't just wait once a year though and forget the cards and flowers. The greeting card and floral industry have people in a choke-hold on this holiday. A nice dinner out and a sincere thank-you is much better than dying tulips in a vase.

After all she's done for you, it's always a must to take that one day out of the year and recognize your mom.

My mum knows how much me and my sisters love her - we tell her every time we talk to her on the phone. But its nice to have a marked day when you can spoil them rotten and spend quality time with them. I don't see my parents a lot, so when I see them or its Mother's Day, I go that extra mile. After all, who else is going to be your mother? You only have one.

If you need a special day to tell your mother that you love her, well then, you need help. But I can see the importance of this day. They need to know that we don't mean to take them for granted.

WHAT ABOUT A SONS/DAUGHTERS DAY!

Always makes me cry becuz I love my mom with all of my heart! I usually write her a sappy poem and buy as many lovely things as I can afford. I love my mom!

A day all for Mom. Great idea, and my mom seems to love it. Soon, I guess, so will my wife.

I don't need a special day to tell my mom I love her. I already do that every day.

It's nice to set aside a day to honor our Mothers. But, we should we should do this every day.

Just for not, I am not rating Father's Day, since we don't exactly have the best relationship--probably be unfair to rate that one. However, I can fairly rate Mother's Day. And a great day it is, to show Mommy how much I love her, to tell her how important she is to me, to tell her I don't know what I'd do if she died (which might not be so good, since I am an adult, but it's pretty much true)... basically, my life-support person (semi-literally). I honestly don't know if I COULD live without her....

Mothers Day is a great holiday because its a day that appreciates what a mother whent trough to have her kid.
