Calendar reading 101

Somehow I got it in my head that tomorrow, May 6, was Mother's Day, so I scrambled around and found a card. It wasn't a particularly spectacular one, and I'm not happy with it, but hey, I didn't want to come up short.

Imagine my annoyance when I realized the big day isn't till next Sunday. Then imagine that I spent $4.49 for this card. $4.49! For a greeting card!

If I were 10 years old I'd buy some construction paper and make my own; Mom would probably appreciate it more than this high-priced thing.

You should forget your age, buy the constuction paper and have at it...trust me, your mom will love it!

My first thought, even before reading aliciatoo's comment was what she said. Granted the projects that I have undertaken for her have been slightly more complex than a construction paper card. Last years was an abstract oil painting on luan, but the principle is the same. Much prefferable to store bought crap.
