What she wants, what she really, really wants
I called my mom yesterday to ask her (yes, 5 days before the fact) what she wanted for Mother’s Day.
She told me clothes. I laughed.
I told her I haven’t bought clothes for myself in a really long time…I’m not buying her clothes.
She couldn’t come up with anything else.
While at Bible study last night, she called Mr. Serious.
She told him what she really wants for Mother’s Day is a new antenna ball for her car.
Please join me in some laughter now. When you are done, keep reading!)
Apparently, she’s gone through a couple (a bass, a Jack-in-the-Box, and some cherries or something). She said she’s had one stolen (because apparently, they are a hot commodity on the black market) and lost one to some low branches.
So, her wish is for a new fancy peachy car antenna topper!
When she told hubby, she predicted two responses. And she was right.
1. Laughter (and lots of it).
2. Followed by me saying “where the hell am I going to find one of those?”
And, they happened in that order. But, I bet she didn’t predict I would blog about it!
Why did she say she so desperately needs one of these bad boys?
“Because I can’t find my car at the grocery store without it”
She didn’t predict the laughter eruption from that comment. Besides, doesn’t she know that is what the PANIC button is for? (I know it’s not really for that, but tell me you haven’t done it at least once!)
I’m thinking this might be a better replacement.
Who doesn’t want a hot dog holding onto their car antennae for dear life?
Now excuse me while I go purchase a silly peach car antenna topper. Happy early Mother’s Day mom!
THAT IS FUNNY!!
How funny….I never thought of getting an antenna topper for that reason….uhmmmm…that might work. Maybe I will asked my kids for the same thing….thank your mom for the idea. LOL
Love, Lura
ps I hope you got the gift cards by now.
Oh my goodness! That’s priceless 🙂 Thank you for sharing!
That is priceless. Check ebay they have them, don’t ask how I know that. lol
LOL! That is funny!
That is hysterical!! I hope you can find it!
Well that sounds easy enough! I can’t even get my mom to tell me what she wants…granted, I’ve never really asked.
Ha Ha Ha! Of all the things to want for Mother’s Day. You better order a couple of extras incase it is attached by a branch again! I think she needs the hot dog one too!
hilarious! And I would have gotten the hot dog one just for fun!
Wow…that is too funny!
I think you should order her an assortment! She could have options..like change them seasonally!! haha
Let us know if you find one!
(and yes, I have used my panic button for that before!!)
that is awesome!!
my mom and your mom would totally be best friends!!
she currently has a big yellow smiley face on hers 🙂
HAHAHAHA!!!!! That is awesome. It sounds a lot like my mom. Most of the time she tells us not to get her anything and then comes up with something really obscure when we press her. Hehehe. Too cute.
I want that hot dog antenna guy. Love him!
Hey I never thought of using one of those for that reason either! Yes, I have used the little remote to find my car. Not the panic button, but when I hit the lock button it honks.:)
Your mom is too cute.
That’s too funny. I had one once upon a time that was a Wal-Mart smiley wearing a cowboy hat. I loved it. 😀
Hilarious!! I am so loving that hotdog!! Lmao!
Funny – must go out and buy the hotdog one very soon!
i totally want a weiner on my car! HAHAHA
That’s the oddest Mother’s Day gift request I’ve ever heard but at least the woman knows what she wants!
Love the hot dog one! Too funny!
Oh that is hilarious! 🙂 Thanks for the laugh mom!
Good luck on finding a peach!
So funny!
I see those toppers at Wal-Mart and Target and I’m always tempted to buy one. But it’s so windy here that I imagine they’d blow away.
ha ha ha ha ha ha love it 😉 How cute is your mom????!
That is too funny. I like that little antenna holding hotdog. I have to admit, I have seen nothing like it.
so funny!
haha…that made me laugh SOOO hard! Oh, and btw…we had a antenna topper (a smiley face with a cowboy had…yeehaw!) at one point in time…and it got stolen too!! Weird.
Okay. Your mom rocks. That’s hilarious. And I vote for the frenzied hot dog.
Lmao!! That’s fricken hilarious!!
Love, Mere
I HAVES SOMETHING FOR YOU ON MY PAGE!! 🙂
This is sooooo funny! Your mom is the best!
Seriously?! That is just too good!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!
Count yourself lucky! You seriously can not go wrong with this gift K.
That is hilarious! I personally would go for the hotdog clinging for life. LOL!
That is by far the strangest gift request I have ever heard but she def doesnt ask for much.
I dig the hotdog, that is too funny.
Happy Early Mothers Day.
