My mom is hard to shop for because all of the stuff marketed for mothers day is nothing she would be interested in :/
Last year I got her a GC for Home Depot and bought her lunch. This year what with the car and school and all, I'm kinda on a budget, so I'm trying to think of more of an "actions" type present
I cleaned the bathroom for her, since she can't do it herself. I wanted to take her to Age of Ultron, since she likes superheroes too (actually where I got it from) but Mother's Day is Sunday, and she works every Sunday. :( I'll think of something.
I avoid buying things for my mom as much as possible because she's already really spoiled. :I And also I'm not made of monies. Used to be that I'd do a bunch of chores for her too but I moved out years ago. So usually I write her a poem.
And by that, I mean we've spent a solid 3 days doing nearly nothing but move into the house we've recently built and passed inspection with. Tonight will be the first time we're sleeping in it!
I also baked like 7 dozen cookies for breakfast since this is the first time we've had a proper oven in 5 years x_x

I (almost) surprised my mom by showing up from school a week early, so I was in time for her birthday (originally I wasn't going to be home in time for it), then my sister ruined it. :|
I told my mom to act surprised at least so I could feel like I'd accomplished something.
We had hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill for dinner, and dad got her the wood to make/fix part of the yard fence. We were going to spend the day doing yardwork for her, but it didn't exactly turn out that way for a bunch of reasons xD; Raincheck on that.
Fantasy is my #1; I will give almost anything a chance if it has strong fantasy elements. Post apocalyptic, superhero, alternate history, science fantasy, some supernatural, romance, and a few fandoms (especially Game of Thrones) are also likely to catch my eye.
I got her some chocolates she really likes, gave it to her early this morning.
Then just about an hour ago I gave her the thing that my siblings and I pooled together our resources to get: some Chanel No. 5 perfume. It's her favorite, same perfume her mother used. Her mother died when she was pretty young, so it's a whole bit sentimental thing. She hasn't been able to get any for herself because it's fucking expensive and she puts the needs and wants of her kids before her own, so for once we returned the favor. She loved it. :D
