mother's day list

I'm all about "keeping the sabbath day holy."  I mean really, we don't even watch tv. And, we go to church for three hours. But I must say for the record, it really ruins my big plans for Mother's Day.

The following are things I would like to do on Mother's Day (if it wasn't on Sunday):

-Sleep as late as I want.
-Take a bubble bath until the water gets cold.
-Read magazines.  Lots of them.  (Mainly the ones I don't get in the mail. I don't go to the dentist enough to keep up!)
-Eat lots of ice cream.
-Finish whatever book I happen to be reading.
-Start a new book.
-Watch chick flicks all day.
-Get a pedicure.  (Which for the record I've never actually done, unless you call Hootis a pedicurist.)
-Get a facial. (Another never actually done.)
-Eat Bon Bons all day, in bed.  What exactly is a Bon Bon?  I don't know but I'm willing to try it.
-Breakfast in bed.  Kneader's Bakery will do fine.
-Lay on the beach all day long. (But not get sunburned.)
-Spend lots of money on new clothes.
-Spend lots of money on shoes for the above clothes.
-Plan a trip to an island somewhere.
-Actually be on that island. Lounging in some kind of Tiki hut. Grass skirt and coconut bra will be optional.
-In-N-Out-- Double Double, fries and chocolate milk shake.  Enough said.
-Feel like I've exercised, but not actually done it.
-Go to some big antique/flea market and find cool stuff.
-Did I mention sleep all day?

So there you have it.  Things I would like to do, but it reality, I will do what I do every Sunday.  Get up. (Boo.) Get tons of people ready, including myself.  Go to church for 3 hours, come home and spend time with family.  Which, despite the lure of tropical islands and bon bons, is pretty great too.

Having Mother's Day on a Sunday does kill a lot of our potential fun, doesn't it? A Saturday would be better.

I can't belive you've never had a pedicure! We need to remedy that. I got a gift certificate for MD, maybe you should tag along??
