yesterday, for Valentine’s Day, I wore a lovely red pullover that my beloved got me in Banff, many, many, years ago;-)… it is one of the few pieces of red clothing that I own…

a lovely reminder of him and how romantic he was, particularly at Valentine’s…

I received an early phone call from my daughter and had my breakfast in a heart-shaped bowl…

lunch was a heart-shaped pizza, yum…

all of which was quite lovely…

ended the day with a hand-delivered card from my little buddies next door;-)… what a treat;-)…

yesterday I remembered a bag of hearts, so I brought it downstairs and had some fun putting them around the house…

started in the bathroom with three small hearts…

then I put two furry hearts over the plants…

two glass hearts replaced the dragonfly and angel sun catchers which usually hang in the front window…

put the bag they came in at the top of the stairs…

finally, I put the heart wreath on the front door…

it was fun to decide where to place each piece, or grouping…

so I was all ready for today;-)…

had a lovely time this afternoon as I changed up the living room table drawers…

removed my favourite things which had been on display since the end of November…

I’d decided on a “love” theme for February and early March, so I looked around and found items that would fit…

I found butterflies, dragonflies, hearts, crystals, a few items which reminded me of travels, and the L O V E letters…

pleased with the results;-)….

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…

first thing I did on Thursday was put the heart wreath on the front door…

a little later, I brought down the rest of the love items and set them around the house…

that was fun;-)…

February is Heart and Stroke month and a time when I make a donation to the Heart and Stroke Foundation in memory of my beloved and those who have been touched by heart disease…

lots to think about…

been doing a bit more window covering with bubble wrap…

it has worked great on the front and back doors…

yesterday, I put some up on the bedroom window, after I took off the screen… I covered one completely and did half of the second one so I could still see out…

I was thrilled to discover that the bubbles for these two panels were heart-shaped;-)…

how cool is that…

had some fun this morning changing out the decoration on the front door…

last night I found the hearts that I wanted to use and brought them to the dining room…

got a last photo of the swag before I removed it…

then I combined two hearts together and hung them up… I have finally figured out how to get them to hang at the right level before tying them off…

I think they look good from both the outside and the inside…

a few days ago I put the L O V E letters on the stairway;-)… had some fun with the lighting…

also ordered a few treats to celebrate Valentine’s weekend on my own;-)…

spent time today putting away all the hearts and refreshing the living room table…

often at this time of year I would be filling it with rocks and shells, but that seems a little early…

I gathered up all the silver and purple ornaments and took them downstairs…

then I put some Chihuly calendar pictures in the four squares and added a few other items… one square has my gardening books as I’ve been looking through them to work on the garden design for the summer…

another has a few of my favourite children’s books in it, and some cards with fun pictures of time on Maui…

the third one holds my new pouch and postcards…

the last one has items to read… magazines, my tablet and kobo… and some butterfly things…

looks good and makes me happy…

had a bit of fun today decorating the house with hearts…

put them in the dining room, living room, bathroom, den and on the stairway…

I miss my beloved… he always made Valentine’s Day special, with flowers, treats and a delicious dinner…

I’ve been looking at meals from restaurants in an effort to support local, but they are all more food than I want, so I am planning on lobster ravioli with lobster sauce for my dinner with a salad…

should be fun;-)…
