Hello, dear friends. How is your week going so far? Mine has been fairly quiet - no trips to the vet or waiting hours on end for a repairman to show up. That's what I call a good week.
The Mister is taking the day off tomorrow. We are going to be celebrating my birthday all weekend long. What's on the agenda? Lots of gardening - window boxes and pots. Also, we are picking up my new car that was ordered last weekend. It's the same make and model as the one we are turning in - just a couple of years newer. The Mister thinks that I wanted the same one as I have because I don't like learning anything new. He's probably right.
You know how much I love to write these shopping posts. Can you stand to hear more ideas for Mother's Day gifts?
If not, hop over to your next blog.
I'm not sensitive.

Can she use a cute new eyeglass case?

I'm ordering one of these because they fit two pairs - my readers and sunglasses.
That way I can lose them both at one time.
Anthropologie
Would she appreciate a new pair of groovy readers?

These are my favorite earphones. As I havewhined shared with you, I have had the hardest time finding comfortable earphones. The Mister bought me these a year ago which rest outside my ears. I will never buy another kind.
Amazon
I love these for the treadmill.

If she has a long commute or likes to take walks, she may appreciate a subscription to audible. Take it from me, it makes my walk and long drives fly by.

Does her phone look like it has been dropped one too many times?
QVC
If she hates her neck like me, she'll love this rich neck cream and roller.
Amazon
A friend of mine recommended this night cream to me a few months ago and I love it. It's rich and absorbs quickly.
Do I look 20 years younger?
Probably not, but I am hopeful.
Amazon
I am a big fan of these peel pads.
I use them twice a week.
Amazon
If she is suffering from frizzy hair - give her this miracle in a bottle.
Living Proof also makes a wonderful dry shampoo, too.
Amazon

Does she have a getaway in her future?
Give her some sweet smelling self-tanner so she won't show up looking like Casper.
I'm already on my way to being brown as a berry.
Nordstrom
Does she need a new carry-on for her trip?
This bag is light as a feather and can fit a ton of stuff.
I'm in the process of packing mine.
Amazon
How about a new beach bag packed with beach necessities?
Mark & Graham
My #2 gave me this travel cosmetic case duo.
It fits all of my miracle products.
I'm still waiting for that miracle, btw.
Amazon
How about a new makeup mirror?
I love the 3 magnifications on the side.
Amazon
Is she a reader?
I just started this darling story and I'm already hooked.
Amazon
You could give your MIL this new release with a note saying you're not so bad after all.
Amazon
Can't wait to sink my teeth into this one.
I can't believe Kristy used my photo for her cover!
Amazon
For the entertaining Mom.

If your Mom is a foodie, she will love this one.
I just downloaded it.

This sounds like a wonderful book about a great lady.

I like to send my girls a little something on Mother's Day since I wouldn't be a Mother without them.
I think that I'll send them a set of these.
Are you still seeking more inspiration?
You can find it here and here.
Until next time...

I love the phrase Neck Camo....if I could get one thing on my body fixed surgically, my neck would be my number one choice. And being a purse girl, I would chose one of those pretty bags for myself. Happy Birthday Katie!! My birthday is a week after Mothers Day so I always get combos it seems but that is ok.
ReplyDeleteI'm laughing at your neck camo comment! I also love the peel pads - so refreshing! We have a similar multi charger that is so efficient. Great finds. HAPPY BIRTHDAY to one of my favorite blogging buddies. Enjoy your special day!
ReplyDeleteI love your lists of gift ideas!! Always fun! Have a wonderful birthday, Katie!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday! I just got a new car - same model, different color, but new version and I loved that there was no learning curve beyond the new features. Me=not good with change!
ReplyDeleteGreat gift ideas, Katie. Now to share the list with the hubs and kidlets!
ReplyDeleteHappiness is Baking. I could have written this one! I hope you get everything on your list for MOther's day AND your birthday, which I hope is gloriously happy!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Katie!!! Thank you for the great Mother’s Day suggestions�� You ALWAYS have the BEST recommendations!!!
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
ReplyDeleteThanks for getting me started on this!
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas, Katie. I'm using this list for some graduation ideas.
ReplyDeleteWhere are you and that bag headed off to? Have a great trip! Enjoy your birthday weekend. Happy Birthday!!!
Happy Birthday Katie I hope you have a spectacular birthday weekend. Mine is today (26) and we came to Boston to visit my grand boys and visit Woods Hole. We had perfect weather and even got a little sunburn in Woods Hole.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Mother's Day gift I ever received is my Apple watch. Quite a few of my friends and I received one as a gift - and turns out that we all love them. They are so multi-function (texts, weather, phone, timer, calendar, apps, alerts, heart rate, steps, directions, time, etc.). I also agree with you that another favorite Mother's Day gift is great earphones.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday! Love the neck cammo and the electronics organizer; with three tween/teenage boys we have electronics everywhere.
ReplyDeleteThose OMG towels, priceless!! The Matriarch looks like it would be a great book! The beach bags, headphones... so many great ideas! And your sense of humor is the cherry on top!
ReplyDeleteI am smiling for several reasons in reading this post! First of all, a very big happy birthday to you, I hope you enjoy your birthday weekend to the fullest. Secondly my weekend is going to involve a lot of planting and tomorrow we are going to pick out my new car. Doing the same, the same make and model just the new version. Eat all the desserts birthday girl!
ReplyDeleteI picked up the Barbara Bush book at Costco and also sent one to my high school BFF as we are both big fans of Barbara. Can't wait to read it!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to my beautiful friend! You make my world a better place. Enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to you Happy Birthday to you Happy Birthday dearest beautiful Katie........Happy Birthday to you !!
ReplyDeleteI am singing to you across the pond my dear friend.
I hope you are having a wonderful day, with lots of treats and your nifty new wheels. May today be as fabulous as you are, I am thinking of you
My fondest love as always

I went through the list twice. Great suggestions...but I am too old...don’t have a Mother or mother in law. I do see several things that I would like. My two daughters are so busy being professionals and parents that I am lucky to get a card or a phone call. Of course my sister’s children bestow them with lavishly expensive gifts. Maybe I should buy something for myself and say they sent it Ha!
ReplyDeleteYour posts always make me smile! There are several things I need to put on my list...because my boys think that Mother's Day is candle-buying day. Not that I don't like candles, but I think they need to get a little more creative. Ha! Hope you enjoyed your birthday!
ReplyDeleteCheers!
Shelley
hmmmm...I think I'll go shopping!!
ReplyDeleteLove your tips -- I always see so many things to put in my Amazon cart for moi! Have a super day!
