Love is a many splendor thing...

Where there is great love there are always miracles.
-Willa Cather

I just wanted to wish everyone a happy valentines day! I hope that you are all spoiled rotten…but if for some reason you are not, or if you don’t have a significant other, or significant other is OTHERwise inclined, or even if you do and are spoiled…remember to spoil YOURSELF! This is a woman’s holiday and you can celebrate love as much as you want, however you want, and it should start with you!

Celebrate love in its fullness! There are so many different kinds of love and they are all kaleidoscope-y and beautiful! There is lover love, friendship love, family love, pet love, all kinds of love! I could go on and on! Celebrate it all and start with yourself!

Anyways, go get some bon bons and champagne and your favorite flowers and enjoy the day! You’ll be in good company as I am about to do just that!

Ciao!

Amen, sister!

I plan on opening a bottle of wine for dinner and enjoying my bouquet of spring flowers that were waiting for me when I woke up this morning :)

That is so nice! I am currently eating a box (in its entirety) of See's Candy and enjoying the lavender roses from my love! Here's to a wonderful day!

For probably the first time, my love had, well, zip, nada, zero, 100% nothingness for me. And I'm ok with it, which I would NOT have been five or six or ten years ago.

happy love day to you jo!

Dear Claire B:
Isn't it great how time relaxes you? I think it is a testament to the security of your love--you need all the signs when you aren't as strong in your relationship, you know? I am secure but I also love chocolate so I announce loud and clear my expectations--which is mostly chocolate. I ate an entire box of See's candy today. So much for running but it was worth every bite!

Now THAT is a great idea. I can buy some See's candies, right? And why not AFTER Valentine's day??
