When I was married, the girls and I would get Van Dyne chocolates in a red heart-shaped box, with a pretty ribbon. Mine was huge. Not being much of a chocolate person then, it always made me a little sad. Now I would be thrilled to see that box.
I had back-to-back fun a couple days ago and now it’s just me and the animals, and somehow the house feels too big and empty. I went up to my closet around 9:00 last night and tried to will myself to put something nice on and get in my car but I just couldn’t do it.
I wish the sun would come back out and I could start gardening. I wish my friend T would wake up and we could go to coffee. I guess this is why it’s good to have a Valentine.

I can’t imagine “not being much of a chocolate person.”
Chocolate is one of my top ten reasons to keep on living.
Happy Valentine….to you..I *smile*
I was up early making my sister cinnamon rolls for
breakfast…my true luv..my twin flame…
so now I am back…smiling…
the time that you talk about…when the house felt too huge
this is for me …the time for music…I listen most days…but especially then
even with a kid around…I feel the walls closing in at times
I love chocolates…never get them…but I love em
As I get older, I seem to crave chocolate. It’s been rainy here, too, but since it’s such a rarity when I don’t have to work I enjoy the cozy feeling. Tomorrow though will not be any fun when our playground is all wet and 25 kids can’t go outside.
The man I married wasn’t into gifts of any kind, eventually not even Xmas or Birthday- Valentines would have been too much of a splurge for him. Sigh. (Don’t ask why I married him – it wasn’t his gift-giving abilities.) It’s a day I have really celebrated since my teens and twenties. Crazy huh? It’ll pass tomorrow with a few wishes here and there… though it would be nice to have a beau sometime who’s into a romance thing… hmmnn. Wishing you a great day anyhow! And if no-one else does, buy yourself some chocolates too! xo
You rented a large studio space just to dance – for yourself? Sounds like a divine luxury…
