Hi All!!

I wanted to wish everyone on my favorite message board a very happy Vday!!! What are you all doing for fun today?

Since I'm single, I've been opting to keep it positive and not get all sad about not having a romantic someone in my life. Instead, I'm pampering myself and loving my family and friends. It's a great holiday to appreciate everyone in your life!!

I started the week by helping my mom out when she got home from her knee surgery (she had her second total replacement done). I made a trip to Walgreens and got my parents an animated singing frog and candy, and picked up a few things to mail my niece at her dorm.

Last night I went to the nail spa and got a pedicure, manicure and brow wax (ouch). I even got bright red polish with hearts painted on my toes. Then I picked up a nice steak and ate a reasonable portion (plenty saved for another meal - yum), and got myself a nice bouquet. I'll confess the sweets have gotten in a bit, but I'll let that go tomorrow.

This morning, I found a little Godiva box on my desk (someone at the office leaves chocolate for all the women every Vday), so I shared it with a friend and just had ONE piece.

.. and of course, I'm wearing red today.

Anyway, hope you're all happy, healthy and loving yourself and the people in your life!! Thanks for giving me something to look forward to every morning!

Happy Valentine's Day to you too!

We don't really do anything special. It's kind of a silly "holiday" if you ask me.

I did run out and buy my bf a 12 pack of his favorite beer and a card. That's his dozen roses :cursing:

I also have some boneless ribs in the crock pot for dinner.

Well, I'm all about excuses to be silly, so I dive in head first! Must be the former Kindergarten teacher in me. :-)

Holy cow, Candle - you've almost lost NINETY pounds!!! Right on, woman!
