I spent part of the morning texting Mothers Day GiFs to family and friends and reading what I received. I called my sister and briefly spoke with our niece, who lives with her. My conversation with my sister was brief too, because her children were picking her up to take her to breakfast. I was glad that our conversation was short because due to her dementia, our conversations can drag on and she'll ask the same questions over and over within just minutes. It's heartbreaking. Her long term memory is better than short term however, so we do have fun reminiscing.
It came to me to let my son know after he got to the mosque (but before the kutbah (sermon), that for Mothers Day and birthdays, I don't want flowers and candy. I want him to spend quality time with me. So he brought home dinners that the Sisters at the mosque had cooked and dessert that one of the Brothers made. He calls it Apple Jack, which is an apple crumb pie. It was very good, but it could have been a little sweeter.
He asked what I was watching so he could watch it with me. I had started watching Invasion (Apple TV) but felt he would enjoy Monarch: Legacy of Monsters better. I had already gotten to mid Ep 4 of season 2, but belt he'd enjoy watching that better. So I went back and rewatched S2 Ep1, which had a recap. We ate our dinners (well I ate about 1/3 of mine) while watching and had dessert over conversation. Sure enough, after that, he wanted to see the next episode of Monarch. Later, I loaded and ran the dishwasher, washed Deja's bowls and cleaned her fountain.
Certainly not!!!
