Valentine's day
Valentine's Day.... Do y'all really celebrate it? I'd be curious to know what you normally do for Vday. We don't do much here, just maybe get something small for each other. My husband has gone to work and I wont see him until 7:30 tonight so I guess the possibility of going out to eat is gone. However, I just took the boys to school and walked back in the door to find a few flowers and some truffle chocolates. I swear I didn't see them before I left and yet there they are when I get back. Interesting. I haven't had time to get anything for my husband and he is so hard to buy for on Valentine's. He doesn't eat sweets and flowers seem to be a girl thing. What the heck do you get a man on Vday??

Whitney Houston. One of the greatest voices gone and it hit me kind of hard. I've always loved her but it's strange timing because just recently I put her music onto my music player and iphone. Also about a week ago I had the urge to watch The Bodyguard so I put it in my Netflix queue and raised it to the top. Coincidentally, it arrived Saturday, the day she died. The movie sits by my TV and I'll probably watch it soon but it may feel different now. Favorite song of hers is Run to You, probably because of the movie. It makes me so sad that she's gone, even if it was probably drugs that did it. What a waste.
Not a whole lot has been going on in my life since I last posted. Soccer ended with both my kids' teams going to the area playoffs and then getting vanquished. It was an awesome season. I've been working a lot lately, spending time and $ at Kohls. My brother introduced me to a board/card game called Dominion and I am loving it. Playing it a lot and lately getting my booty kicked.
Oh I must say that I've been loving the new series Once Upon a Time. Anyone else? I didn't get into it until episode 3. The first two just didn't do it for me and I almost quit watching, but something drove me on. I am now on episode 8 with just four or so eps to catch up on. Great premise, very imaginative! I have to say, though, not happy with the end of episode 7!! I need to get some icons, but I guess first I need to rebuy some.
Sorry I haven't posted lately. Will try to do better! I promise that I've been reading my flist daily. :)
