Topic: In need of suggestions | |
---|---|
Wednesday is my moms 72nd birthday. She has too much junk now. She doesn't need any pretties or household items. She doesn't need clothes. I have written her many poems. She jewelry that I have bought her and doesn't even wear. I cook for her all the time. I am broke. Any suggestions??

Order a Rose bush in a nice planter that can be transplanted outside later. Most florists have them.

When you get money give her a ride in a hot-air balloon!!!!

I remember I went in a hot air balloon once & this woman took her mom up there for her 80th birthday. I don't know if your mother is into that kind of thing, but it was pretty neat. In my opinion a little expesive though. (around $300) or you could just take her out to her favorite restaurant and get her a special card or a framed pic of you two.

lol lakeman I just typed that same thing.
|

|
|
Go to the thift store & get a asortment of picture frames & frame pics that she has stashed, even if they dont fit you can use colored paper or old cards or wrapping paper as a boarder then do a collage of them on the wall & shelves by her favorite chair or where ever she hangs out..
you could even look for some pieces of material or a bright sheet that you can drape her chair in maybe one for her lil table too |

|
Find out what what charity she likes and donate in her name!
|
|
|
|
take her for a pedicure & then out for a tea! at one of those cutiesy lil places, like red hat society! just tea or pie so it doesn't cost too much..

Hey take her out for a nice dinner and movie....older people love getting out on the town

Get a hat box, shoe box, bowl, or whatever you have available. Put questions you know would provoke thought and conversation into it. Let her draw one question at a time out. As you discuss the subject, interaction bonds you closer than ever. You find out so much about each other. It will be something neither of you will forget.....trust me.....

|
Make her a home made cake.....or her favourite cookies or pie. Make her a homemade card too!!
|

My parents are like that and I made them a scrap book of all the things I done in school and throughout the years and went through it with them and they still sit with people going through the book
|
|
|
|
Or beer and cigarettes always work!!
|
|
|
|
So tell us....how'd it go? What did you do for your mom?
|
|
|
|
Sorry I missed the birthday question...hope the event went well. I really liked whispers suggestion about the hat box and questions.......i'll have to try that sometime. I love this place.
