Bells Whistles And Hearts

Everybody please have a lovely Valentine's Day.

Even already this morning as I was in the store a few people were saying they were depressed...........this is a really commercialized "holiday"......and the media seems to push it on us that you need another person to give ya a present to feel loved.

Nope, and I'm all for romance..........but to everyone here who is working so hard at recovery you should treat yourself special today no matter........and have a good one.

Much love,

Bryn
Happy Valentine's Day Bryn! A big {{{{{{{{{hug}}}}}}}} and a smooch Muah!

I actually got a card from my hubby and Dylan.

Valentine's day is usually more about Dylan's birthday. My baby is 13 today! He loved his skateboard T shirt and has to wait until after school for his skateboard, but he's going to be one happy boy...er hmmm....young man. How time passes so quickly!

I hope everyone has a great Valentines Day today!
Hey Bryn:

All holidays are tough on those that are alone. I have a lover/husband/friend, so who am I to say...but I have had Valentine's Days when there was no one in my life in that capacity...LOL

I think it is a day to focus on those that WE love...not who love's us. I bought my nephew a HUGE tube of bubble gum (I know my sister will thank me later hahahaha), and my great nephew a braille toy. One niece is coming to stay and I plan to spa her for a day and the other one received my most beloved cookbook that she constantly asks me to look up recipes for her. It has all my notes and additions/subtractions. It is a high, holy relic for me!

So...as in all things, it is a matter of perspective. I have always said (coming out of a bad marriage)...it is good to be loved, but it is even more important to LOVE.

Hey...and also....pardon me for pumping my fist like this!

Go make love!

S.
Ah..........Valentine's Day on the couch........do I still have to "go make love?"

Jer
as opposed to going to "make war"...the answer is yes, no matter where you are!
Jer's being pretty funny........good part about getting clean......ya laugh louder and easier.......and laugh at ourselves is the best.

Yeah, Sar pardon me people........LOL.......glad you're having a lovely all things cool Valentine's Day dear one..........and what ya want me to make love not war with my elderly neighbor.......LOL........he tells me today in his Italian accent "I strong like BULL".........yes, you are good Sir of like age 80..........then I think well yeah he can mow the lawn and shovel snow he is strong like bull.......and maybe I should take him up on his pinching my face telling me "You crazy, you so cute"..........LOL..........story of life, right?

Janet, hoping your son enjoyed his special day........oh my that big 1-3.......that's the real deal...........and good look out on the romantic card......must be you blow drying your hair or something, Janet.........I like it.

BTW, over on the heroin part of the board.......our dear and wonderful Zero Girl put up a thread for our fave love song lyrics or anti-love song lyrics......quite enjoyable so if ya'd like to share.......thought I'd put it out there.

Happy, happy peeps.
