My mother wanted nothing to do with that dirty, heathen celebration. Maybe I should put some flowers on her grave just to spite her.

I'm going to soak in a tubful of patchouli-scented water and drink St. John's Wort tea.
My g'son is going to make his special Worcestershire/Italian Dressing steak.
Life is good!

Use it as an excuse to go over to her house, check and see how my sister is doing, and hope that mom hasn't been smoking crack again.

I'll probably forget it-just like I have been forgetting all the local holidays in the US. I realized today that we forgot Cinco de Mayo (ok, not mexican, but we observed and ate appropriately), tax day passed without any panic(unfortunately, it was the first time I missed it, and I had completed them early, but hubby didn't send them to tax chick at company), St. Pats (ok, not Catholic, but forgot my "Kiss me, I'm Irish button on my "everyone loves and Irish girl t-shirt, which is in storage at home). Valentines day. Nothing.
I did send home gifts and cards for the mom/mIL a couple of weeks ago, but I am pretty sure I will forget it on Sunday(is it this sunday?)
You know the only holiday I have any right to is mother's day? And tax day-not that it is a holiday.
Today when I realized that I forgot cinco de mayo, I was really sad, and had some of my first serious homesick twinges. Trying not to analyze that one too hard. Mexican food is hard to find here, $$$ when you do find it and not very good at that. I am not mexican, was there in Mexico for all of an hour and don't even speak spanish. My only claim to mexico is a grandad that served in some war that involved a mexican guy named Pancho Villa. I don't think that earns me the enchiladas, you know?
We won't make it back in time for Independence Day.

Give Mom her due.

Call my mom and pretend I don't know it's Mother's Day. She gets upset if I acknowledge Mother's Day, and she gets upset if I forget her. So this way, she can have the best of the JW-both-worlds.
