Mother's Day

[Frodo]

Took my parents (including my mother) to brunch at the rooftop Lafayette Restaurant at the Hay Adams Hotel in downtown DC.  Besides the topnotch food and service that you would expect (I made sure that the flowers I bought for my mother were there when we arrived, and the centerpiece at our table), you couldn't have asked for a better day -mostly sunny, warm, and breezy with highs around 80.

I had to work today 8-7, and while I would rather be with my mother, I also know that I am honoring her by going to work today.  That's what she wants for me to do.  I can spend other days with her, but she wants me to work today.

You work on Sundays?  In Oklahoma?
