Valentine's Day and since then

My Valentine's Day was very memorable. My husband professes not to do a lot of hoopla but he so made up for it on this holiday that he says is a corporate scam for the card, candy, and flower industry. Well, he did REALLY good.
I went to work on this particular day without thinking about what day it was. I knew it was Valentine's Day but since Jeff has never really done anything for it I wasn't expecting anything. He came in from work and handed me a pot of red tulips just beginning to bloom. I jumped up and hugged him and went nuts over them since they are my favorite flower. A little later he went out to the car and came back and handed me a package with a movie I had been wanting to get. Next, he schemed with my oldest son to babysit and Jeff took me to Rosa's Cafe for dinner. It was so romantic and sweet and totally unexpected. I hope he realizes that he has set the bar for himself and now I am going to want some sort of hoopla every year. HAHA!!!

Since then things have been low key. Will and Jeff have gotten new glasses, we got a new computer, and things are rolling along. I was with Will today and we agreed that life is good right now. We might not have much but we have enough and we are blessed. Yes, we could use a little more money so the finances weren't so tight and yes, we could use another car for Andy,and yes, we could sell the old house, but over all we are in good shape and we are happy.

I hope that others out there are happy. I know I am.
