Mother’s Day Gift Ideas from Microsoft Windows
I am not a big fan of gifts. Well, I actually love to give gifts, but I have a hard time receiving them. I never like that awkward moment of surprise when I’m taken off guard or the moment that follows when I try to decide what the gift-giver was thinking. Gifts that are useful are always a safe bet with me, so these Mother’s Day gift ideas from Microsoft are perfect. Husbands? Take note.
