    That's a really cool memory.

    Yea, I guess that's why such a Hallmark holiday means a lot to me. It wasn't such a commercial thing in the 50's/60's, and it was more meaningful. Funny, both of my kids do the same special stuff for their wives .
    Indy, thanks for the vote of confidence. I am not going to let it bother me this time. Last time, I got bronchitis I was so stressed with all of the re-autorizations.

    Reesha, just saw your post about making the soft hats - that is a kind and generous gesture of friendship.

    Your friend will really need and appreciate the hats. A good friend went through chemo for ovarian cancer, and her head was very sensitive, but she needed scarves and hats for warmth.

    Thank you My friend only asked for one, but I have a week to myself and some idle fingers. It will keep me busy and give her SIL some options. Plus I can make it through at least two seasons of Bones!

    That is a very sweet memory. I still have the copy of Grease that my dad got me one Valentine's Day. It was my first album. I was so excited.
    Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.
