Happy Valentine's Day-Next Year


Valentine's Day is almost over according to the digital clock on my Macbook Pro.  No flowers for me this year, not even a picture of one via text message.  Evidently fishing(I'm not buying it but it is what he said) is more important or more interesting or exciting...whatever.  I understand.  I still love Valentine's Day.  I watched my grandsons so my beautiful daughter and her handsome husband could go out for a romantic dinner.  Young parents need date night especially on Valentine's.  I hear people say, mostly single women, that it is just another day.  I guess it is just another day if you want it to be.  I want it to be fun and romantic.  Since I didn't have a date and short on cash myself I cruised the internet for Valentine's Day stuff, cute pics, sexy pics, where it originated-pretty good stuff!  Wikipedia, my personal favorite source of all things I used to look up in Encyclopedia Britannica, informed me St. Valentine was a third century Roman saint that died on February 14.   Did you know the flower-crowned skull of St. Valentine is exhibited in the Basilica of Santa Maria in Cosmedin, Rome?  I could have lived without knowing that!  Anyway, I am not giving up my romantic idea's of Valentine's Day and besides, tomorrow is Friday nite-can't beat that!  Happy Valentine's Day, flowers or no flowers, date or no date, there is always next year!  kisses
