How I spent Valentine's Day 2014 (in random order)
1. Poked my head out the door to smell spring and realized Snowmegeddon from the southern states had left my tiny part of the world untouched..
2. ..except my car was bright and shiny after a good rain.
3. Tried to remember Valentine's Days past; good, silly, not so good, horrid.
4. Washed all my towels, throwing fancy to the wind, not sorting the lights and dark.
5. Cleaned the dirtier half of the refrigerator.
6. Put some raspberries in the yogurt on my oatmeal.
7. Put off picking up the dog's leavings on the lawn.
8. Checked out Environment Canada to learn what WARNINGS they had for the day.
9. Got dressed in a comfortable ensemble not suitable for public wear, to encourage me not to galavant.
10. Thought of my grandchildren celebrating Valentine's Day at School.
11. Remembered how much I liked to be asked by the teacher to decorate the Valentine's Box....
12. ..... and how much fun it was making a box lunch to raise money for the Red Cross ...
13. ......and not enjoying eating the lunch every year with Donald Cameron, because Donald Cameron always bid on my lunch.
14. Got a call from a sweet little boy wishing his grandma a Happy Valentine's Day.
15. Ate leftover scallops and asparagus for lunch, from dinner the night before.
16. Enjoyed hearing how well Canadians were doing at the Olympics.
17. Gave Moses a brush.
18. Tried to tidy my room, but didn't get very far.......
19. .....but got the sheets changed.
20. Toasted the day with a wee glass of sherry as I sat by the fire and listened to CBC.
OOPS ! I forgot to wear my my valentine socks from Frenchies.
