Greetings Friends, I hope you had a great weekend and have started out this new week on a good note. Our weekend was good; when you are retired it seems most days are good! We watched a little of the Grammy's last night but honestly just fast-forwarded through most of it. Tomorrow we are planning to go see the movie "The Vow", for our Valentine's Day activity. When we were young, I always made such a big deal out of this holiday but as we've aged, not so much anymore. We do exchange cards and I guess this year our big treat would be going to Ca. for a week. Hubby's mom is very frail so we want to make sure we visit her; we never know when it will be our last time. Aside from that, we will be having a great time with family and friends, spending time in beautiful Carmel and also the wine country where we used to live. I am excited about girl time with my closest friends and the sister of my heart.
Today I've already walked and plan to meet another good friend for lunch at a salad bar. She heads out on a family trip this next weekend so I won't see her for a couple of weeks; we best get caught up before she leaves. I hope you have a joy filled day!

Amazing Grace...

DH and I honeymooned in Carmel/San Francisco/Napa Valley. We would love to be able to return (not sure if that will happen as we hate to fly, and it's such a LONG trip by car). I hope you'll have pictures of your trip to Carmel ... so I can revisit it vicariously through you. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHope you're having a marvelous Monday ... our snow has just started falling, but it's such teeny, tiny flakes that it's not going to accumulate at this rate.
I fast forwarded thru the Grammy's because I can't take all the hippity hoppity noise (music????) where you can't understand the words.
ReplyDeleteI loved Jennifer Hudson's song. I cried.
Valentine's Day for me is about being grateful the people I love are still around me. So many are gone now that the ones I still have mean more than ever.
Love to you~

We saw the vow on Sat. It was good...perfect Valentine's movie. ENJOY!
ReplyDeleteRetired...now what is that? Oh I am kidding, that is wonderful and you having a great time with retirement.
ReplyDeleteHave fun! Happy Valentine's Day
We have 2 things in one week...
ReplyDeletevalentines day and our Anniversary ...
that was not good planning (o:
We tried to go out to eat a few years ago on the 14th... way to crowded and long waits... so I will cook something. Oh Joy!
CA will be great. Sounds fun.
We go see Rich's mom in a few weeks for her 90th. She is not doing all that great ... frail would be a good word.
Good morning, thanks for stopping by my blog. My girlz are a great source of entertainment and bring me great joy. Yes, Gracie is one of the yellow labs!!
ReplyDeleteI started crying when your music began playing, one of my favorite praise and worship songs. It was just what I needed to hear this a.m. Thanks!!
