What can I buy my mum for mothers day? She lives so far away, it wont get there in time if I post it today.?

I would like to get something delivered from a local business near her, but I don't know any. I know florists will deliver flowers and chocolates if I get stuck, but can anyone think of anything else? Thanks

Use the internet to look up a spa near her house. Call that spa and get a gift certificate, then have them mail it to her house.
Reply:you can order online from neiman marcus or saks or nordstrom or amazon, they also have next day shipment. Check it out.
Reply:I'd go for the flowers; a nice phone call would be a good thing as well.
Reply:A visit to a day spa in her area for some pampering...
Reply:Singing telegram? Or, better yet, a strip-o-gram! I'd like a strip-o-gram for Mother's Day. Although, I'm pretty sure I'm getting a bird watchers field guide. Yeah.

Reply:You could order something from a place that is local to her perhaps it would get there in time?





A friendly phone call to discuss what treat she would like might be a good idea.





"Hi mum happy mothers day! I have x amount of dollars to spend on you, what would you like?"





You could arrange to do dinner or something nice next time you are nearer to her and available if that is ever going to happen. Going out for a nice dinner is usually nice.
Reply:Here's something creative that will be appreciated and you will have fun doing:





Make up a crossword puzzle and have all the hints be personal inside moments and jokes that only you two would know about. Put it on a poster board and add some clipart and some pictures to it!





The crossword puzzle could be time consuming and a bit frustrating ... you could do the same idea with a WORDSEARCH or WORDFIND puzzle.





Put your computer skills to work! Use Excel, get clipart from Yahoo Images Search, copy them, and reformat them, use a gluestick to put on posterboard.





Use graph paper, and pictures from magazines if you are not as good on the computer, and it will give it a homemade feeling.





This is a really beautiful poem too!





Women have strengths that amaze us.


They carry children, they carry hardships, they carry burdens but they hold happiness, love and joy.


They smile when they want to scream.


They sing when they want to cry.


They cry when they are happy and laugh when they are nervous.


They fight for what they believe in.


They stand up for injustice.


They don't take "no" for an answer when they believe there is a better solution.


They go without new shoes so their children can have them.


They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.


They love unconditionally.


They cry when their children excel and cheer when their friends get awards.


They are happy when they hear about a birth or a new marriage. Their hearts break when a friend dies.


They have sorrow at the loss of a family member, yet they are strong when they think there is no strength left.


They know that a hug and a kiss can heal a broken heart.


Women come in all sizes, in all colors and shapes.


They'll drive, fly, walk, run or e-mail you to show how much they care about you.


The heart of a woman is what makes the world spin!


Women do more than just give birth.


They bring joy and hope.


They give compassion and ideals.


They give moral support to their family and friends.


Women have a lot to say and a lot to give.

Reply:If your mom has a hobby, buy her something that corresponds to it . Mothers always love jewelry. Or a night on the town.
