Happy Hearts Day!!!

Valentines Day - perhaps the most ambivalent holiday on the calendar!  Love it?  Hate it?  Feeling a little lukewarm?

Eddie Dale and I "celebrated" a little early.  We had plans for dinner with friends on Saturday....so, we sort of celebrated then.  And, I had a closing yesterday, so we went out for dinner again last night and that was sort of a celebration.....

I think we're kinda pooped out on making a fuss over it this year.  I do have to say, though, that my sweetie did come through with the traditional roses on Saturday afternoon.  He made a quick run to the grocery store while I was working on the closet project and came home with these.....

Although they were already a bit weathered (the greenery was completely dried out and brittle), we salvaged the roses and put them in the living room to enjoy for a few days.  I love the deep red in the afternoon sun.....

Good job, Eddie Dale!

Wishing you all much love, happiness and fulfillment on this Valentines Day!

Happy Hearts Day!!!

Well, Valentine's Day has already come....and is nearly gone. 

Was it all you desired?  Or do you join in the school of thought that this was a "holiday" entirely blown out of proportion by candy and greeting card companies? 

Whatever the reason behind the popularity of Valentine's Day, when you have a sweetheart of a husband like I do, you look forward to any day that is set aside to give and receive romantic cards, beautiful flowers and yummy chocolate!  As usual, Eddie Dale did not let me down.  And I catch myself thinking.....

"Every day is a special day with the one you love!"

 Wishing you sweet dreams and a happy journey with that special someone....
