Happy Valentine's to all.
My husband and I celebrated with a meal at home. He cooked filet mignon and I made a salad to go with it. Homemade ice cream for dessert.
My man can cook a great steak.
In my Facebook memories for this day a photo of us from one of our first Valentine's Day dinners popped up.
I know we went to a supper club that is well-known for it's prime rib.
My mother-in-law took the photo and told us to have a good time.
We were such wee babes.
Here we are, 27 years later.
We first met when I was working at Wendy's. I'd say it was love at first sight. Though it probably didn't seem like it, at first. We exchanged phone numbers and talked on the phone for hours almost every night before we went out on first date. Our first date was memorable. The engine on the old Monte Carlo caught on fire and we had to pull over, by Pattison Park, and pop the hood and throw sand on the block to extinguish the fire. Yes, we did continue with the date and went to a pizza joint in a town I don't remember.
He said when he drove me back home I jumped out of the car so fast he thought he'd never see me again. I remember being so excited that I couldn't wait to get on the phone and call one of my girlfriends to tell her how the date went.
Happy Valentine's to my soulmate, and that we have many, many more.
I can say soulmate because we've been together *forever.*
In other news ... I've been feeling a bit low the last several days so I haven't been writing or posting the #fiberuarychallenge posts over on Instagram. The recent weather kinda blows and I think the barometric pressure is sapping my energy. Then last night I didn't get a good nights rest.
And since I can't sit still unless I'm sick in bed, I've been working on my quilt blocks.

I also started my Emotional Support Chicken.
Started: Feb. 13, 2024
I also finished my Harvest Cardigan. I'm saving it for the next podcast I record. You will just have to wait to see it.
Spinning fiber also happened. Not as much as I would have liked. I'm falling behind!
Oh! I did have some fun mail today. I ordered a floor lamp for my spot in the living room. I think it's going to work out. It's nice and bright and it is positioned such that it's not blinding anyone else in the room. The price is also very reasonable. Less than $40.
Earlier today I went to town, to pick up mail at the office and take care of one thing. I swung up to Harbor Freight and picked up a generator.
Guess you could say it's a Valentine's Day gift for the man of the house.

I'm beginning to think I need one of those emotional support chickens, too. That steak looks delicious, by the way.
Thanks! :-)
