Week, Week Go Away. Come Again...NEVER.

Valentine's Day:
I'm getting all dressed up, curlers in hair, nice shirt and slacks that make me look GOOD. High heels. I NEVER wear high heels. But believe me, this story is not about the high heels.

As I'm fixing my hair, my boyfriend gets a phone call from his dad. I come in to find my boyfriend crying because they are having to put down his dog. She's 12 years old and blew out her knee. She's a Golden Retriever...sweetest dog, such a lovebug. They didn't have to make a decision until the next day...so why ruin Valentine's Day? I mean, I KNOW it's important to get him information as soon as possible, but isn't it possible to have ONE Valentine's Day where we can enjoy ourselves?

Case in point:
1 year ago: He found out that his best friend's grandfather passed away.
2 years ago: One of our very close friends passed away.
3 years ago: My mom passed away a few days before Valentine's Day.
4 years ago: I had to work all day, 12 hour shift.

So let's cut to today....

My canary died. She was a red factor female that actually sang. She was gorgeous and had a beautiful voice.


Just not a fun day so far. OH...and it being fat Tuesday I took it upon myself to have partake. After my third one, I started bawling about how I was having dreams of my mom where she's telling me that there's something important that I will remember, but that I won't remember it until it's too late.

RUN do not walk
RUN to your nearest available source of melted chocolate

Shortly before you drop into a sugar coma - all problems will cease to exist - and it will take a plastic surgeon to remove the smile from your face

I'm thinking you should just skip that day all together!

I agree. Valentine's Day is NOT a big deal at our house. Show each other love everyday, and there's no need for a made-up holiday.

I don't celebrate Valentines day or Easter. My sister got hit by a car and died April 14. It was a good Friday and we had her funeral on Easter Sunday. When they printed her obituary the first time they wrote Feb 14. Way to kill both holidays!

i'd change valentine's day to a different day so then maybe bad things wouldn't happen. my husband and i celebrate v-day a week or two ahead. it works for us.
