Okay so living in the US I often find myself having to juggle between the metric system and the feet system (did you know it's actually called the English Imperial System ugh!). It's almost an every day workout. Seriously when in metric we only use the meters for length, here you have to deal with inch, foot, yard, hand, link, chain. When for volume we use liters & cubic meters, here I've had to learn all about gallons, ounces, cups (cups! wtf!)...It really isn't natural but I get my way around. Now what really confuses me is why on Earth does Mother's day have to be different from a country to another. How do you keep up with that! Well lucky for me I don't have to worry since I don't have a mom anymore (black humor I'd rather laugh than cry) but it makes the perfect excuse for your husband to just space it (if he needs an excuse ha!). Mother's day here was 3 weeks ago but in France it was this past Sunday. Okay it isn't a life-threatning issue, just me wondering why do we keep making life slightly more complicated than it could be. Just a why.
Here's a peek at my mother's day, a new thing for me but when your husband can't remember your birthday (in over 10 years!) you really don't expect much. After my sister had skyped us all the way from France to wish me, well you know what, hubby & son ran outside to try to figure out an emergency plan. And a huge bouquet from our tropical bushes did the job. It did. I even laughed trying to figure out our vase situation (will I get a vase next year..?). The only favor I asked for was a few photos of Manech and I . Got them. Love them. A Happy Day.
Oh and it's 10/10. My birthday. No comment.
