[QUOTE="SRL, post: 153359, member: 701"] House of Cards, I thought of you when I was out shopping for Mother's Day cards and tried to pick out the perfect card. I never did see anything appropriate for mothers who have been kicked at the Mother's Day tea. "Relax and enjoy your special day" doesn't cut it nor does "My Mother, My Friend". I suppose "Thinking of you" would work as it didn't specify WHAT the giver was thinking at the time. :soapbox:So, who writes these cards anyway? Everyone in the aisle with me spent at least ten minutes trying to find something. I have to tell you some of them were really stupid. Some annoying beeping was coming from a card a man kept opening and closing so I asked about it. Good thing too, because he was hearing impaired and couldn't discern the sound but after he read my lips going "beep, beep, beep" he wisely put it back on the rack. Did anyone else notice all the cards with past tense messages? "Mom, you always loved me..." For pete's sake, are these for mothers whose days are numbered? And then there was the top rack. Those are the cards for when you are so sick of trying to find something down below that you cave and pay $6.99 for. Maybe Star should go into writing card messages. MD countdown--7 hours, 45 minutes and counting.... [/QUOTE]
