This Week on the Spin Cycle: 5/5 - 5/11

This week on The Spin Cycle...

Mother's Day Gift

Mothers receive many, many well-intentioned gifts every Mother's Day. I remember one year when I gave Mama a turquoise naugahyde wallet, which I'd made for her in Girl Scouts. And the woman USED it. God bless her.

I also remember a less successful year when I decided that what she really needed was some anti-wrinkle cream. I spent what seemed like a fortune on the fanciest anti-wrinkle cream I could find at the drug store. While I truly thought that this gift would be perceived as pampering and feminine, Mama, unfortunately, thought it was a rather rude hint that she needed to do something about her wrinkles. Sigh...

Do you have a drawer full of paper weights and trivets? Are you up to your neck in breakfast in beds?

This week, you have a couple of options -

1. What do you REALLY want for Mother's Day this year?
2. What would you REALLY want to give your mother for Mother's Day (whether she's with us or not)?

Write your spin. Post it. Link it in the Linky below. Check back on Friday to read Ginny Marie and my spins on Mother's Day Gifts.
