Happy Valentine Day everyone :)

Welcome to Dawn, Donna, Sarah, Tracie and anyone else I may have
missed who are new. We're all friendly here and supportive and pull
up a cup of tea or a shot of Jack if that's your bev of choice and
jump into the fray. You won't be sorry or subjected to drama. Well
probably not anyhow since I wouldn't be here for as long as I have if
we were naughty here. Its great for as many members as there are here
that we are all kind, friendly and respect one anothers thoughts.

On my side of the world today we had some sun which was lovely and we
are warming up some and not feeling wintery frigid as much-praise be.
Anyhow, I've just been doing some deep cleaning today. I am trying to
purge out things I don't use, want or need. Some say I already live
pretty sparsly minus my books and music but I don't like to have
clutter and such about. I like cleaning and being organized. I
believe being sanitary, eating right and exercising has kept me from
being ill for 2 years now.

This morning Aidan was leaving for work and he's a naughty fellow
because he woke me up. I didn't mind really cause he doesn't jar me
awake :) Anyhow he is my opposite so he's into holidays. (I am more
into taking holiday just not holidays I always tell him. He just
gives me the oddest looks.) So he gives me a letter to read sometime
during the day and some really nice wild flowers and a small box that
looked to be the size for a necklace or a bracelet. So I opened it
and it was a ruby and diamond bracelet to match my engagment ring.
(He knows I like my jewelry to match very well) I thought to myself
now thats an observant man. He is and I let him know that I loved the
fitted bracelet (Of which he noticed again. I don't like bracelets
that slide up and down your arm.) and the flowers and letter that I
didn't even read yet.

So he left and I went back to sleep. I had just gone to sleep around
4am or so and needed a while longer. So let me just say that letter
was extrodinary and brought tears to my eyes. I didn't cry though:)
So basically last night I gave him a book of poetry that he hasn't
been able to find and wanted that took me forever to find I might add
and his favourite French wine that his mom had sent to me. I also had
written him a letter since he digs reading my letters. I am learning
to open up and not be so private. I had been intrested lately in
astrology because I am a cancer on the cusp of Leo and the SO is a
Leo so he is a fire and I am a water/fire sign.

I have never put much faith into astrology but it was intresting to
learn how to deal with certain traits I see within him. He said to me
once that I don't like to steal his limelight so we're a perfect
match. I don't like his type of limelight so yeah I won't steal his
lol. He is a very open, demonstrative, physical loving type. I am a
little more reserved about things but he's brought out a little more
of my wild side. He likes his ego stroked a bit I noticed which I
don't mind. We all like to hear how much our SO loves us right?

I took this week off of work a few months back because I knew I had a
lot to accomplish during this week and didn't want to deal with
working on top of it plus I had scheduled a few other appointments
into this week so I didn't have to try and figure out time
constraints while I was working into other weeks. Plus I decided to
run some few errands for the SO to take some pressure off of him. I
actually enjoyed getting a great deal accomplished. I am happy to be
such a goal oriented person. Plus I had the grocery delivery, walking
and taking the dog to the vet for her normal check up, going to the
cleaners, putting the grocery order in its proper places and all that
normal everyday stuff.

Its getting late and I need to shove off!
