We had our Mother's Day in the uk back in March, but what I did was made her a handmade card using photoshop (it was humorous and featured cats, which we both love) and bought her a very expensive eyeshadow as she said that she hated her cheap drugstore ones (she never really spends money on herself, so I decided I would buy her something of beautiful quality).
I would suggest making a card yourself, and maybe flowers and chocolates? Whatever is within your budget. My relationship with my mum can be strained too, we live together, just the two of us, and I'm 19 and still in college, and I guess I'm not the easiest person to live with

but that being said, make the most of the day, and try to let her know you do still love her. Do something thing from the heart. Maybe make her a mixtape of her favourite music and songs?
