Mother’s Day Gifts to Avoid

Mother’s Day is right around the corner… do you have plans for a gift? Lets take a hard and funny look at what gifts I don’t want from my kids or husband.

You might be a little different than I – this is meant to be humourous – hopefully you can see it that way too.

Here are my top don’t’s:

Appliances.

Yeah no don’t get me an iron, an ice cream maker or a new Keurig.

I don’t want anything I will have to use to make you anything or have to clean.

Weight Watches, Shape or Cosmo Magazine Subscription.

I love you and yes I do want to be healthy.

Let me show you my before marriage and children pictures.

Don’t push it or I’m going to show you my c-section scar.

Robe.

Because it will remind me that I’m too busy getting you out the door during the week that I can’t really enjoy wearing it.

Chocolate.

What?!  I know I have a few to lose don’t make it harder …and by the way… I know you got it from my stash of clearance Easter Candy. :)

Apron.

This reminds me that one, I’m not June Cleaver and two, I should make dinner.  Husband, throwing in stillettos will only mean you are expecting after hours

And I’m too tired.

Yoga Pants or Flip Flops.

Are you trying to say I let myself go? ;) 

Pasta Necklaces.

This was ok when you were 3 years old but now I’m watching my carbs.

I’m working on decluttering so lets think of things that I can scan and keep forever.

Hooters Gift Card.

Yes dear I know they have amazing chicken wings but lets get real.

These have been working breasts and will NEVER be like the ones you can find there.

Wrinkle Cream

I don’t care how expensive it was…this is just a NO.

Flowers.

I Do Want them…But NOT From my garden. Get a groupon hubby dear and get a deal at the florist.
