beloved, big girl pants, Boston Pizza, Decadence Chocolates, kindness, roses, spicy perogy, treats, Valentine's Day, widow

last night I picked up roses for my colleagues and was touched when my florist advised she had added an extra one to be sure that I got one…

on the weekend I made valentines for everyone using my pictures, an app to put words on them, and wireless printing… lots of fun… currently I have one as the wallpaper on my phone…

always enjoyable to treat them…

my beloved really loved Valentine’s Day… he always got me roses and chocolates and made sure that both of the girls received a rose too…

I still send roses to the girls…

often we’d have our favourite steak and lobster for dinner;-)…

been feeling a little sorry for myself without him, so preparing treats for others helps me overcome that feeling…

had a lovely day at work… wore red, had snacks and decided I would order a heart shaped pizza for supper as a treat for me…

it was the spicy perogy, which I really like… made a salad to complete my meal…

maybe I will finish off a small piece of sugar-free Berrylicious from Decadence Chocolates as a final treat…

thanks to Victoria for sending me a couple of photos from the office;-)…

hoping that you had a day filled with kindness…

poinsettias…

big girl pants, Boston Pizza, celebration, flowers, moments, poinsettias, widow

had some fun with flowers over the last couple of days…

on Wednesday, when I was at Safeway, I spotted these cute little poinsettias… they were the perfect addition to the table settings for our Holiday Celebration… the florist packaged them up for me and once I got them home and slightly unwrapped, they sat on the dining room table for a day…

this morning I wrapped them back up and took them over to Boston Pizza… had to wait outside the door for a while before someone let me in… apparently they don’t have many people at their doorstep at 7:45 am…

and finally tonight they brightened up the tables and acted as prizes for the event…

certainly remind me of the beauty of the holidays;-)…

holy moments…

big girl pants, Boston Pizza, great customer service, holy moments, hot tub, Lynne Russell, Mary Hoffman, midst of the holy, nature, take the time, Three Wise Women

ordered a spicy perogy pizza and Caesar salad from Boston Pizza for my group tonight, as I was on for food… when I called the young woman was very helpful and didn’t try to get me to order more than we really needed… she was spot on and everyone enjoyed the pizza…

we then checked-in and read a wonderful book titled: Three Wise Women by Mary Hoffman, with pictures by Lynne Russell…

Three Wise Women...

Three Wise Women…

 

we talked about the holy moments in our lives and how we are constantly searching for them…

made me think of how I am trying to live my life these days… being in each moment and taking the time to feel/see what is actually taking place…

we talked about those special conversations that accidentally happen, that you might not even consider as something important… but if you spend a moment you realize that you are in the midst of the holy…

for me it is often nature that helps me find those moments… yesterday morning in the quiet of the hot tub, as the birds flew past chirping like it was spring… the bunny spotted in the garden… the heaps and heaps of beautiful snow, lol…

what amazing women these are and how special the time that we spend together… talk about holy moments…

dinner…

big girl pants, Boston Pizza, dinner, fish, leftover, water hyacinth, young friend

for my dinner tonight I had leftover salt and pepper chicken wings, cactus cut potatoes and Caesar salad… it was quite yummy…

they were the remainder of my dinner last night… I went out with a lovely young friend who I hadn’t seen in ages… we had a great visit, got caught up on our families and I got to show her the new baby (car, I’m talking about!)…

when I go out now, I often order enough to have as leftovers the next day… this was particularly good tonight as I always find Friday a night when I really don’t want to have to cook dinner…

fish in the winter condo...

fish in the winter condo…

sitting here with only one light on and can’t see the fish in the tank, but earlier I made sure to feed them… there are 13 of them and they are fairly big, so I want to be sure they get enough to eat… there are also a few water hyacinth plants in the tank, but they won’t last for very long in the house… they do best outside in the heat…
