I have been avoiding my mother lately, but seeing as how I failed to at least send her a card for (our) birthday this year, I thought I'd at least do something nice for Mother's Day. Last year? I think I got her this b.a. hammock (that I promptly took over when I visited) that she enjoyed.
This year, I'm broke, and in a different state. So I thought I'd get her something to show off in front of her co-workers and patients:
As expected, she was pleased as punch. And even though it will be Mother's Day, I still managed to make it about me with the card: "See? I'm not such a horrible child afterall."

p.s. I wrote like, 4 pages last night! Oh joy!
