Happy Mother's Day! (bllllleaaaaargh)

Thursday, May 13, 2010
I love my Madre. She's awesome. She raised me all by herself and I am a strong, independent woman today because of the example she set for me.

We live pretty close to each other and yet I definitely don't hang out with her enough, though I have been trying to remedy that while Bear is gone. I've been a little low on funds lately and she just bought her first house so for Mother's Day I suggested that we peruse the West Seattle Community Garage Sales on Saturday and then Sunday I could come over for our typical take-n-bake pizza + Midnight Special celebration and assist her with whatever task around the house that she may want my help with.

Saturday was great, despite having no luck at the multiple yard sales we stopped at that day we got lunch at West 5 and picked up some cupcakes from across the street before we parted ways.

On that Sunday, after I visited the West Seattle Farmer's Market and skyped with Bear I ran over to Papa Murphy's for Ma's usual on my way to her place. We baked and ate up the cheesy bread while we watched Midnight Special, then cooked up the pizza and ate that. Towards the end of this particular MS DVD I was starting to feel queasy and by the time it was done I had vomited into her toilet everything I had consumed that day.

So not awesome. I dragged my sick self home after scheduling another time to come over to help her hang her pictures. My Ma was still sweet enough to thank me with a status update on Facebook....Told you she was cool.

Ooh, feel better! I'm home sick for the second day in a row and am going absolutely stir crazy.

I went home and laid down and felt alright; fortunately (or unfortunately) I think it was either something I ate or some stress that I haven't been dealing with very well.

Don't tell me you are home with a cold during this gorgeous weather??
