Someday I’ll find the strength to write about it. That’s a beautiful gift from Lily and her family. Just the sort of colorful, eye catching thing I adore.

And this is how we do Mother's Day too, a text or a phone call, no gifts required. <br /><br />I don't think our feelings are unnatural for those of us who do not have/did not have close or even mediocre relationships with our mothers. Some mothers don't really want to be mothers and deal with children but they did because that's what society expected of them and also really, back when, they didn't have a lot of choice about. I do like Badass Nurturer Day!ellen abbotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00535475792150335186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-36874186594399350442022-05-09T09:31:16.916-04:002022-05-09T09:31:16.916-04:00Your contentment shines through this post like the...Your contentment shines through this post like the ripples in raspberry ripple ice cream.Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-87936253004110730352022-05-09T05:13:21.134-04:002022-05-09T05:13:21.134-04:00Glad you had such a good Mother's Day, and tha...Glad you had such a good Mother's Day, and that Violet's chick is doing well!

I am not a *mother* but I did get numerous *happy un-mother* well wishing texts today from friends.....which made me smile. I mother my husband (to a small degree) and my dog and other animals.......and nurture my friendships....that is enough. Your chicks are so beautiful. It makes me wish I had the energy to begin another flock here.......but don't think I've got it. happy evening! I hope a Martini is on tap!

A&W. My middle daughter sent me flowers which surprised me and then we talked on the phone for almost an hour. Yesterday my hubby brought me home a small greenhouse which I love. I nice, low key day. No expectations.<br /><br />I can imagine that you have very complicated feelings for your mother. Shit happened that never should have happened.

When I had a couple of parakeets newborn, I couldn't believe how fast their tail feathers came in. One day just a couple of dots, next day half an inch of feathers, then a whole tail in no time. It's fabulous to watch.Boudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00641013916263271948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-23189154550431708002022-05-08T19:25:46.540-04:002022-05-08T19:25:46.540-04:00The Lily/Maggie gift is lovely past description.
