on Thursday I wandered around the house and took down all of the hearts, including the ones on the front door… they made their way back upstairs…
it always feels a bit naked when there is nothing hanging on the door…
I also took down the L O V E letters and put them back into their spot on the upstairs hallway bookshelf…
on to March, the birthday month, lol…

emptied the living room table a few days ago…
today I brought the LOVE letters down and put them into the squares…
it looks okay, but I am not sure if I am happy with the result…
hmm, may need something else added in…
the orchids look quite nice on it although the O kind of gets lost, lol…

I was looking through some albums recently and came across this photo from Christmas…
it was an ornament on one of my daughter’s presents… a family tradition has been to give an ornament to each person on one of their gifts…
made me think of all the love signs around the house which I have put out for the month…
there are hearts all over the place… in the kitchen, bathroom, dining, living room, bedroom… and on the stairway…
these two hearts are within eyesight in the bedroom… I bought the purple one, and the wooden one was made by my beloved… he was a very talented craftsperson…
I put up some pictures of the various hearts when I wrote this post… I enjoy seeing them and will leave them up for the month…
February is also Heart and Stroke month… a reminder of my beloved, who died just two years after a quadruple bypass…

finally had the time to take a photo of the February Chihuly calendar… the piece is called blue frog foot fiore… this installation was at the New York Botanical Garden in 2017…
was picked up by friends, went to the Nhu Quynh for a lovely lunch before we headed to PTE for this month’s show, which was excellent…
nice to spend time with friends…
