Mother's Day

My mom as she looked in her early 20's. Mom died in 1988, she was just 63-years old.




















The lovely Mrs. Sneed received these lovely hydrangeas from our oldest son and daughter-in-law. they will have to be an indoor plant because our summer is just too hot, even in the shade.



We all went our for breakfast today to honor all the mother's in the Sneed clan. We sat outside on the patio and it was a tad warm, but not too much so.

Sneedlet One was a bit of a handful. He has been a little sick for the past few days and I think he was tired. I took the little boys for our traditional walk around the plaza where the restaurant is located. By the time we came back to the table, they both were red in the face from the heat.

I am doing what all sensible desert dwellers do in the heat of the day, which is to sit in whatever coolness you can find. The lovely Mrs. Sneed is taking a well-deserved nap.

Tomorrow is back to work. Thirty-five work days left, not that I am counting or anything.

Merle: Sounds like you and yours had a full day! I can't believe how hot it is down (over?) there. I had to wear a sweatshirt today it was so breezy. And I tried to call my Mom, but she's visiting my brother and he never answers the phone...so, so much for that. Anyway, enjoy the hydrangeas. :)

You didn't see me here. I'm not supposed to be loitering in blog world.

I just wanted to say your mom was flat out gorgeous, and I'm glad the lovely Mrs. Sneed was acknowledged on M's day. Ahem, must be nice.

Mrs. Sneed is a lucky woman.

I completed a crossword puzzle Friday in which one of the answers was Mortimer Snerd, but I remembered it as Mortimer Sneed, so thanks for that.
