Beans Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 .............Mother's Day this coming Sunday............... Many, many, years ago my first wife and I were making a big deal of buying gifts and making dinner for our mothers for Mothers Day... After all was over and everybody left I asked my wife "how cum you are so quiet? Not feeling well?"..."You didn't once wish me a Happy Mother's Day" she replied...(we had a 5 month old son)... "You're not my mother !" I sez... Wrong reply... So take my advice...get your wife a card and/or a gift if you are in the position I was...believe me...you will never live it down..if you don't... BTW...Happy Mother's Day to all the OFC mothers out there...
Headhunter Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 Beans... that very sound advice, which I suggest everyone take to heart, unless of course your hoping to enjoy "hot tongue and cold shoulder" for dinner on Sunday night! HH

HH Again Joe... didn't you have that Wednesday night as well. Thanks Norm!
Guest gbfisher Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 It only happened once! I got er covered..
John Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 Thanks Norm, sound advice and something that I live by. In my young and foolish days I said the 'you're not my mother" thing to Barbara and I am still reminded of it to this day. She has tolerated not being my mother for 34 years.
JohnF Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 And when she says "Oh, you don't have to do anything for Mother's Day." - she's lying. It's a test. JF
e-z-out Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 And when she says "Oh, you don't have to do anything for Mother's Day." - she's lying. It's a test. JF My wife says that evey mother's day and who ends up sleeping in the dog house??????? Who else but me. Not this year got the wife a new SUV and now i'm bloody broke once again

Not this year got the wife a new SUV and now i'm bloody broke once again The trick is to deliver the new suv with all the new fishing tackle you bought in the back cargo space. That way you get something out of it. I'm still trying to figure out how to fit my new flyrod and baitcaster in the trunk of a bouquet of flowers. JF
Pike_Nut71 Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 "First wife" + Mother's Day - Gift = Experience....Yes sir that math adds up.... T

GBW Posted May 9, 2008 Report Posted May 9, 2008 (edited) been there done that; the whole no gift thing considering she told me "no, we need the money and flowers just die" but I didn't share the bed that night... It's only been 5 Mothers Days since but I know she will never forget. Do I get an Out of Jail Free card considering she went to "we will rock you" last night (with her mother too) for Mothers day?
