Okay- fess up

Post #255,338 by bionerd 5/13/06 11:55:08 AM Reply	Okay- fess up Did one of you guys send me a Mother's Day bouquet signed from my kids? Fed Ex just delivered a huge bouquet of flowers with a card that says: To the best Mommy ever, Love Mitchell and Emma. My kids know nothing about it, and they're not savvy enough to lie to me. I called my Mom, my friends, my boss...nobody is fessing up. Was it one of you? The return address is from CA....hmmmmm... If it was one of you, thank you VERY much!! If not, I still have to find the correct person to thank! This is driving me crazy! Follow your MOUSE

Post #255,372 by bionerd 5/13/06 5:25:50 PM Reply	No, I'm pretty sure it's not them. My daughter couldnt keep a secret if her life depended on it. She's the type of kid who shows me all my Christmas presents as soon as she buys them. The flowers came from a web vendor, so I checked out their site and found the bouquet. I know my kids didnt have $50 plus shipping to spend. I even called the customer service number to see if they would tell me who placed the order, but they wouldnt. I called my ex husband and he knew nothing about it, which didnt surprise me, because this isnt something he would do even when we were married. So I still have this delicious mystery that I have yet to solve. Somebody out there knew I would enjoy the thrill of the hunt as much as the flowers. Follow your MOUSE

Post #255,388 by broomberg 5/13/06 9:15:57 PM Reply	I don't KNOW I just suspect. Which means nothing in this context, and will just lead to unsubstantiated accusations. Kind of like my daily interaction with most people. So, nope.

Post #255,426 by bionerd 5/14/06 2:52:08 PM Reply	Well, thank you. I was served breakfast in bed this morning. Two toaster waffles from my son and two empty hotdog buns from my daughter! She obviously inherited my culinary skills. Yum. Good eats. :-) Follow your MOUSE

Today we were at a powwow. My wife was admiring a drum made of elk hide stretched over maple, after discussing tribal affiliations the maker gave it to her as a blessing. No agenda's just a damn fine gesture. thanx, bill Any opinions expressed by me are mine alone, posted from my home computer, on my own time as a free american and do not reflect the opinions of any person or company that I have had professional relations with in the past 50 years. meep
