hard day today… Valentine’s Day and a full moon, lol…

woke up early thinking of my beloved… he was quite the romantic… one of the things he always did was make sure both of the girls got a rose… sometimes they would be delivered but most often he would deliver them himself…

for the last two years I have sent them a rose in remembrance of their dad, who loved them so much… this year I sent them the day before so they would have them for the whole of Valentine’s Day…

Crystal’s rose…

did well at work except for the email that a friend sent which brought a tear to my eye… sometimes I forget that I am still loved…

Cyndi’s rose…

had a little meltdown at the end of the day when there was conversation about partners and their level of romanticism… had to leave, and as I drove home tears were streaming down my face as I remembered my beloved and how special he would make me feel…

in 2012, our last Valentine’s Day together, he gave me a jacket I had been eyeing for quite a while, along with a beautiful red rose, heart chocolates and candies… I considered wearing that jacket this morning but decided I should wear red, rather than purple…

the only red thing in my closet that wasn’t too warm was a red Canada Day shirt which also seemed like a good plan today as the Olympics continue…

how lucky I have been to have such a romantic in my life…
