The Sewing Mom

I received this in an email today and, after spending $100 to fill the gas tank in my full size van, I found this to me humorous, if not true!

I went into the gas station today and asked for five dollars worth of gas….. The clerk farted and gave me a receipt.

I was surfing the web today looking for gifts for my own mom for Mother’s Day when I ran across something I could use for myself (isn’t that always the way it is?). A watch, I could use a new watch!

You see, I currently have a watch that I really enjoy, but, it’s the only watch I own. For the last several years, I’ve been sort of hinting around that I would like to have a more casual watch than the one I currently own. I’d like a watch that is rugged and can stand up to days when I’m doing yard work, or playing around at the softball fields. I also would like that rugged watch to be accurate.

So, while surfing today, I found these Casio watches. These Wave Ceptor watches are inexpensive and yet are calibrated for atomic timekeeping, in other words, the time is automatically set using radio signals. It’s also scratch resistant which would be beneficial when working out in the yard.

What are you wanting/giving for Mother’s Day?

Mother’s Day is getting really close and I’ve been searching for just the right idea to spoil my own mom with. She is an avid quilter and so I tend to look for things at the quilt shop for her, something that maybe she wouldn’t buy for herself.  If you’re looking for ways to spoil your loved ones, read on.

I wanted to mention a sight that is close to my own heart because I am one of several writers who post articles here and that is Spoil On, a site full of articles and ideas on how to spoil your loved ones. Loved ones can be anyone from your spouse to your children. There are some great ideas, and not all of them require going out and spending money. I hope you’ll take a look!

If you have a great way to make your loved ones feel special and spoiled, let me know, I’d love to hear about it!
