I remember when you lost your mom Armistead. It's tough, especially on Mothers Day. But it's your memory of her that keeps her alive in your heart. Since you are a product of your mother, you can still celebrate Mother's Day with joy.:up:
So, here's a Happy Mother's Day shoutout to you for your mom's sake.:03: My mom is 80 and has Dementia, just spoke to her recently on the phone. She'll probably outlive me.
Here, now you finally get to see what I look like. Well, when I still had hair. This was Back in Oct. 1999, a month before
my first daughter was born:

Ah, Mothers. Where would we be without them?
When I started 1rst grade, my mother had me outfitted in school attire with a satchel, rainsuit and matching rubber boots. That probably explains a lot about me.
Lost my Mom in 1998, I still miss her.

My mom was the coolest person I've ever known. Everything from going hunting every year to my Jimi Hendrix story. On the other hand part of the coolness was that we were never really close. We were but we weren't. We could be around each other for a few hours every month, but any more and it started getting irritating for both of us. She wasn't really a "people person" and neither was my dad, and I ended up the same way. She moved to a tiny place in the middle of nowhere a couple of decades ago, and we lost track of each other. I've sometimes meant to go find her, but it just never seemed that important. If she's still alive she's 85 now.
When her mother found out we lived fairly close to each other she asked "You live twenty miles apart and you don't see him every day?" Mom replied "If something happens to him they'll let me know."
Happy Mothers Day, mom, wherever you are.

I doubt it, even though she did teach 1st and 3rd grade in late 60's and early 70's in SC.

I didn't say she was... I'm just saying that there's a lady who lives up the road from me who was my teacher in First Grade that looks exactly like her.
You have to respect teachers who teach Kindergarten-Second Grade because you have to have nerves of Titanium-Tungsten Alloy. I could never do it. :doh:

Spend time with your mother!
I have to confess some envy with people who have good relationships with their mother. Sadly, not everyone does.
I was lucky to find an appropriately emotionally neutral Mothers day card. It is getting a lot easier than it used to be. It used to be very hard to find a mothers day card that was not hypocritically sappy. But every year there are more and more "neutral" choices. So I must not be the only consumer. :)
I am very happy that my mother is living the life she chooses.... 3,000 miles away. :up:
