Question: #5: Mother's Day flowers didn't arrive.?
I wired flowers to my 89 year old mother, for mother's day, to be delivered yesterday (Sat), to CA. (I'm in Idaho.) She was home all day, in and out, checking for them. They never arrived. I called the florist this morning and they checked on it, called back, and said they were delivered at 7:55 last night. What can I do? $50.00 for flowers that never arrived. It's their word against ours. The lady I talked to said they have no guarantee, like if someone in the neighborhood stole them or something. Do I have any recourse?To answer some questions: It was Duncan's Florist, here where I live, that I ordered from and paid cash. I don't know what forist in CA they wired the order to. They said they were left outside because no one answered the door to sign for them. My mom was home and said no one came to the door. And no, she is not hard of hearing, in case you were wondering. She hears better than I do. LOL(Later Sunday) Good news! The flowers were delivered to someone else yesterday, but my Mom got the other lady's flowers this morning. My Mom called her and they made the exchange. Since they both reported earlier that they didn't get their flowers, the florist sent another bouquet to each of them. So they both ended up with 2 vases of flowers each! It all ended well. Thanks for your nice replies. ;-) - asked by Glenda M

Question: #50: Mother-in-law~Mother's Day question?
My first mother's day was last year and it was horrible for me. As a new mother I wanted to do something special with my husband. But he went out with his mother and I refused to go with him and just spent the day with my mom. His mother and I didn't get along back then. My husband was angry with his mother because she didn't call me to wish me a happy mother's day (and he also brought up the fact that she doesn't give a $hit about my birthday and expects to get acknowledged on hers). I ALWAYS order a gift for both moms for mother's day. Last year I sent flowers and this year I made up a photo book with pictures of her grandson (which I gave to her a few days before mother's day because I knew that I wasn't going to see her and my husband was working). My husband called his mother for mother's day. She didn't ask to speak with me at all. I think she HATES the fact that she has to share this holiday with me. I guess I should let this roll off my back. But it really bothers me.A few days before she was over the house and I gave her the gift then. I told her that I wasn't sure if we were going to see her because my husband was working. She told me that she didn't need to see me, just my husband... - asked by qtpie
