Best Valentine's Day ... ever

Today is Valentine's Day. My love had a dozen roses delivered to my office. That in itself was so wonderful. What really made me cry tears of joy was that fact that he had set it up before he left on his latest gig ... even going to the florist and inscribing a wonderful card to me.

Made me feel so loved that despite him being out of town today he wanted to make sure that I knew he was thinking of me lovingly. I truly feel that I am experiencing a new dimension and level of love with this very special man.

Today a friend of mine Steve Glavan, described what Valentine's Day was to him. I'd like to include it on my blog so I can remember it always because it really is describing how my relationship with Yossi is evolving. I've put my edits in red.


Today I get to celebrate Valentines Day for the 1st year with the love of my life. What have I learned? . . . that love is all about taking risks, putting your heart out there so that the bond between two people has room to grow. I've learned that love is more than a word, it is an action, demonstrated by how we live, how we treat each other and how we sacrifice for the good of another. And I've learned that Valentines Day can happen 365 days a year. When you're with the right person, every day is flowers, candy and snuggling in front of the fireplace. I love you, Yossi. Happy Valentines Life!

Snow and my pool

Crazy Dallas weather! Today the sun is shining but not after we have had 4 days straight of subzero weather. I can't wait to see my electric bill ... not. I feel bad for all the businesses who planned on hosting the thousands who were coming here for the Super Bowl on Sunday but probably had their flights cancelled.

What happened is it started raining, then sleeting, then a sheet of ice covered everything. So no school busses, school closed ... work closed. The craziest thing was the huge snow storm that dropped 6 inches on Thursday night. You can see it for yourself. My poor pool pump has been working over time. Finally this morning the kitchen faucet thawed out enough to start running again. Yeah!!!!! No burst pipes!

Super Bowl Sunday should be dry and sunny. However, I think another storm is rolling in on Tuesday ... sigh.
