Mommy Card

A couple of days before Christmas, Joe and I went to the card store to buy all the cards for the parents, grandmothers, etc. After we bought them, Joe went back to get mine and then, joking around but serious I said to him 'um Buddy, did you forget something?' and he said 'yeah? you got one too?' and I said 'yes' -- thinking we were on the same page -- NOT!!!

Christmas Day comes and I ask him where my cards are (he's so bad at that, not getting them, but remembering to give them to me ) and he goes to look for them. He never gave them to me because we had a revolving door of people in and out and then we went to the hospital (as it was, me and him didn't get to exchange our gifts until 11PM that night ). So the next day I see his card to me up on the entertainment center -- good thing I looked, huh? And then next to it I think I'm going to find a 'MOMMY' card -- NOT!!! IT'S A DAUGHTER CARD TO GIANNA FROM HIM!!!! NOT EVEN MY NAME ON IT!!!

He is too funny, let me tell you!! I had already given a card to Gianna from us and he thought I meant a daughter card, not a MOMMY card!! I started laughing and said to him 'um Buddy, where's my card from Gianna?' and he just looked at me and said 'oh no, I goofed again with this mommy business, huh?' I bought him a Daddy ornament, but he forgot to get me a Mommy one!!

And on another funny note -- as I was leaving the hospital on Friday night -- hurrying home because he called me in a nervous fit because Gianna was SCREAMING (she had gotten 2 shots that day) and he couldn't calm her down and he was a nervous wreck -- I FELL AND MY CELL PHONE WENT FLYING ABOUT 10 FEET!!!! Meanwhile I'm laying there like a big chooch and some man had to help me up and I couldn't find my phone!! My mother had to call my number in order for me to find it!!!! And I hurt my hand, my arm and my foot!! And it's the hand/arm I had operated on a couple of years ago!!! Never a dull moment!!!

I can't believe you fell. I hope you aren't hurting. Steve did the same thing. I was like where's my Mommy card? He ended up getting one after Christmas for me. Guess where it is. Under the visor in our car. He's like 'Oh I have to fill that out, you can look at it if you want' Men!!!

What is up with that?????? We do ALL the work and get un gotz!!!! He tells me 'nobody told me about this mommy thing!' !! HELLO BUDDY, meanwhile he had a grin from ear to ear when he opened his first Daddy card!!!

So I filled him in that from here on in he has Valentine's Day, my b'day, Easter, Mother's Day and any other card giving holiday!!!!

He did get me a gift from Gianna -- a beautiful silver bracelet!!!!

Edited to say: Yes Stacey, I'm hurting!! I get off the chair like and start walking like an old lady because my foot hurts!! And I couldn't even scratch my back or undo my bra last night!!!

Only you Deb!! But I'm sorry you got hurt.

As for the cards, we BOTH forgot. AND to make matters worse, I got Patrick 2 little gifts from Nicolas (an Islander hat and a subscription to Sports Illustrated) and he got me a GORGEOUS platinum and diamond necklace from Nicolas. Oops...

A funny side story is that we got each other cordless phones from Arnold. I was hysterrical laughing when I opened mine. He was saying 'what's so funny??'. I said 'wait till you open YOUR gift from Arnie!!!'

HOW FUNNY IS THAT??!!!!!! Two great minds.... Did Arnie buy you both the same brand?

Wow, nice gifts Nicolas picks out!!! Tell him my b'day is in March!!!!

I'm ok -- my hand is bruised, but I think my ego was hurt more!! Joe was like 'oh brother' and shook his head!!! And I still can't tell you how I fell, next thing I know I was flying through the air!!!

The same brand but different models. (The one I bought was a bit more expensive, so that made me feel A LITTLE better about Nicky's cheap gifts to Daddy! )
