special day

happy valentine's day! | personal

I know, the day is almost over! But I didn't want to let it pass before wishing you all a Happy Valentine's Day. I hope you had a sweet day full of love and appreciation from the people in your lives. My valentine is actually out of the state right now so we will be celebrating our holiday this coming weekend after he returns home. Even though we said we'd celebrate this weekend, he still had some flowers delivered to me today! Having flowers delivered in a ProFlowers box is becoming a tradition with us. Unfortunately, Tommy has missed every valentine's day, anniversary, and (my) birthday since we got married. (Each time it is because he is required to travel for his job. Stinkin' military ;)) So even though it's always a bummer that he's gone, I am beginning to grow fond of the familiar box that shows up on our front steps on all the special days. I like that it's becoming a little tradition with us. Plus I know he will return home and quickly designate a day to make up for the day he missed. Yeah, he's kind of romantic. And I kind of like it. :)

So anyway... for those of you who are spending tonight alone, you aren't completely alone out there! I'm off to curl up on the couch with the dogs and catch up on some TiVo'd shows. I'm so cool.

Happy Valentine's Day, friends!
