1) Slept in late – check (one day out of two)
2) Hubby did laundry – check (oh, wait, he always does the laundry).
3) Frittered away time in the garden – check
4) Snuggled baby & not-yet-too-cool preschooler – check
5) Purchased more plants than I can actually plant – check
6) Had family over & lost mind before they showed up (bonus prize!) – check
7) Got into a snit over boning chickens for Mothers’ Day dinner, well, no one asked for that one. Do I get a demerit? At least there was no chicken butchering involved
Received obligatory hand-made and perilous yet precious gift from preschooler – check (it is a petunia, and it is still alive)

What didn’t happen – a second day of gardening, sex or any knitting. But all-in-all, I can’t complain. It was really all about items number one, six and eight. Mothers’ Day is already a weekend event at our house … so much more civilized.

I did laundry. And threw a mini-temper tantrum that I didn’t get to do anything special, and sent myself to bed early.

Monday morning, I got breakfast (not in bed) with fresh-squeezed orange juice. Thank goodness my daughter is too young to discover that sometimes tantrums DO get you what you want.
