I think I need to write that on a sticky note up on my bulletin board!
Valentine's Day was really painful for me for many years. When EXAH got out of prison on a PV, guess what day we picked for the wedding? Yup, February 14th.
In recent years I've chosen to focus on the important people in my life who really love me, and to be grateful for each and every one of them.
Tomorrow I am going to be a lazy bum at home!
If my tax returns come in, I am taking my youngest daughter and myself out to eat steak in Wichita.
AD has been out of town since last Saturday, won't be home until Friday, so it's been delightfully serene and quiet in my home for several days now. I guess you could call that an extended celebration of Valentine's Day.
Love, love, love candles! I've got three big ones to choose from in the living room, depending on what mood I am in.
