From One Sarcastic Little Shit To Another – Happy Mother’s Day

by InvisiblyMe

This day can be difficult and painful for many; I don’t want to be insensitive covering Mother’s Day so please feel free to avoid this post if it may be triggering. There are many who don’t have a relationship with their mothers, and those who have traumatic ones. Then there are those who have said goodbye to their mothers. I’d therefore like to take a moment to give thought & love to everyone struggling today, and to those who have lost their mums. They will always have a special place in our hearts.

My Mother’s Day Card For This Year

I spotted one and knew straight away it was perfect. My mother is often calling me a sarcastic little shit, though thankfully with a smile on her face! πŸ˜‰

YouSaidIt cards offer something different to the norm, and I love that because cards can get a bit same-y over the years. I was lucky enough to be sent a free card of my choice to share my results with you lovely lot. I’m really glad to have discovered this brand because I can already see some other designs that would be perfect for father’s day and other birthdays later in the year. Those unlucky victims delightful recipients will be in for a treat!

About YouSaidIt

Mixing offence with entertainment and giggles, YouSaidIt offer something a little different to the norm. And I love it! They have a range of interesting, unique, politically incorrect, hilarious & novel greetings cards. They cover all occasions & holidays, and they also have a section for gifting goodness, like badges, mirrors & mugs. So many of these make me giggle, like the β€˜I like dogs more than people’ and the β€˜piss off I’m busy’ mugs.

There’s a good range of designs on cards and gifts, from gentle insults and light comedy, to unapologetic swearing in big bold letters to make your card/gift truly memorable πŸ˜‰   If you’re easily offended, avert your eyes when looking at some of these.

I think the range is fantastic for being novel and unique, guaranteed to raise eyebrows and give the recipient a chuckle. Cards can get pretty boring and routine when buying from the shops, so YouSaidIt shakes things up a bit. I also like that you can customise the card, adding writing inside if you wish, and you can choose the colour envelope, too.

Card delivery is the price of a stamp, so 1st class is 67p, and 20p for additional items. You’ll get your card within 1-3 working days. 

I ordered my card on the weekend and on Monday it was dispatched, which is super quick! It arrived on Wednesday, via standard 2nd class delivery, and came packaged in a cardboard-backed envelope. The card itself comes in plastic wrapping to keep it protected.

You can get yourself 15% off your order at YouSaidIt – just enter the code

My Mother’s Day Shout Out

How time flies…

My mum is a gentle soul with a quick wit, sarcastic edge (wonder where I get it from), kind heart and patience of a saint. That patience has surely been tested with my declining health, rising anxiety & the challenges we’ve all faced from day to day. She has always been there for me, believing in me, talking me back from the edge, and we always manage to have a giggle. She’s also a crossword ninja & can be a sarcastic little shit herself, and I love that about her. She is an inspiration to me for her compassion tempered with a strength that knows no bounds. She is beautiful. My friend, always.

Our awful glorious pottery creations from last year.

Whatever you’re up to this weekend, I hope you have a restful, relaxing one. Be kind to yourselves.

LOVE your card and your Mum sounds amazing. I lost my Mum in 2009. I just said to my husband that it doesn’t seem like almost 10 years already. You’re not being insensitive at all by posting about Mother’s Day. I consider myself lucky to have had an amazing Mum too xx

I am so sorry about your mum, I can only imagine the heartache and of course it never goes away. I hope this post didn’t upset you. I wasn’t sure whether to do it as I want to be mindful of others. I know I’m blessed for my mom. Hugs to you and thank you, Masha. You are a beautiful soul. Have a lovely week Β β™₯ xx

Aw Caz, this is such a sweet post! You and your mom are both very beautiful ladies, inside & out! I’m grateful you two have such a loving relationship. That relationship can be completely life changing <3

I love this so much! Thank you for sharing!… Thing one and I have our own language and this is perfect. Yesterday when I was typing “I love you honey”, it came out “I live you homey”. So that’s our new thing for the week.

That’s so awesome, your own language, I love that. Hehee the typo made me chuckle, I can see that one being the new phrase between you two for a while! Thank you for the fab comment, Grace – Have a lovely week ahead πŸ™‚

I think it’s wonderful that you and your mom are friends. That’s the way I think it should be when your kids grow up. I always looked forward to having that kind of a relationship with both my girls. I have it with one but not the other. I treasure our friendship and feel so lucky to have it. Lovely post Caz. πŸ™‚

Reply
InvisiblyMe March 31, 2019 - 10:00 pm

You’re right, ideally it would be more like friendship as children grow older but it doesn’t always work that way, so I count myself very lucky. Even if you’re not as close with your other daughter, there’s still love there (I won’t pry so I’ll leave it at that), and it’s wonderful you can have more of a friendship with your other daughter. That’s precious. Thank you for the sweet comment – Happy Mother’s Day πŸ™‚

A definite magnet of a title.. I actually had to pause before reading to get my mind in the right frame.

I hope your mother had a gorgeous and wonderfful mother’s day. I wish hr good health, happiness, and a boastload of sarcasm
to share with her loved ones. LOL

Great post. Touched me.

Haha I like that and I hope your mum liked her card!

I think my mum would appreciate the “I like dogs more than people” one!

Oh no, sorry, I should have written out what the card said underneath! Sorry Kirsty. It says ‘To the best mum in the world. Love from your sarcastic little shit’. She thought it was hilarious, and very fitting to come from me. I told her I learned from the best! Hehe, that’s a good one, the one about liking dogs more than people πŸ™‚

Aw thank you, Mary. I was awful when I first started doing crosswords; with practice, your brain starts to work around them a little differently so I’m much better now, still not as good as her though. Sudoku, however, has us both stumped! Have a lovely rest of your week πŸ™‚

Definitely, there are lots of great ones to choose from so it’ll be hard to pick the one that’ just the right level of rude & politically incorrect! πŸ™‚

Love this, there’s an emerging market in similar products. Have you seen the Love Layla stuff, it’s along the same lines.

Ooo no I’ve not heard of that. Will go Google that range now, thanks Karen! I do love things like this that are a bit different & raise a giggle =]

Great line on the card. IMHO, satire conveys a message like nothing else can.

I agree, and I’m glad you liked the card too! Thanks, Ankur =]
