Happy Valentine's Day. This is my favorite holiday of the entire year and I am so sick I could not care less. How sad is that? Come on, I want to hear you sigh with me. At any rate, my sweet Mister treated me to flowers and a couple of wonderful cards. Dinner/fun is out the window as getting out of bed would be cause for celebration. Perhaps next year. Enjoy the cards, I sure did.
The red card and roses were in the kitchen when I made my way out for a glass of water. Ah, tears came to my eyes but I had to shut them down quick. Tears and being sick DO NOT go together.

The Singers are HERE!
Oooh, oooh oooh. Guilt works sometimes. A couple of weeks ago I was talking with my grandson and telling them to ask mom and dad for a visit. Dad was listening and before the conversation ended, I left a not too subtle hint with him too. Don't he and Bekah need a Las Vegas weekend? Wouldn't that break up the winter for them? That's it. Enough said.
Two days later, Matt calls and says when I can take the kids? I tell him that I get back from Amanda's on the 26th, flying into DFW. We work it out so that they fly in that same evening so that I can get the kids and the two of them will continue onto Vegas for a couple of days before joining us. Happy Dance!!!! Now, today is the day. I have said my good-byes in Telluride and am on my way to DFW. I only have about an hour to wait before four smiling faces arrive and I give two hugs and send them on their way while scooping up the other two and heading for a waiting Grandpa. First up is dinner as we are all starved and these two want cheeseburgers. Hello In N Out. He doesn't look like it, but Grandpa is happy to see them too. Really? How about a smile?

Off To Telluride to Help Amanda Move
18th - Amanda is arriving back into the country today and I am meeting her at the airport where we are travelling back to Colorado together. We meet up and have about 1/2 an hour before our flight in which she shares with me all of her adventures in Ecuador the past 10 days. It's crazy but she has been stung by a stingray one day, a jellyfish another day, and experienced an earthquake on still another day. She has been blessed by a Shaman and arrived safely in Dallas. WOW. I don't have much to regale her with after that tale.
It's time to fly and when we land, it is in Durango and we have to drive to Telluride. Ugh. Late night for sure and when we get there, it's straight to bed and crash.

Just a Night Out
It's Wednesday, which makes this date night a little different, but hey, I'll take it anyway. Down at the Lakewood Growler there is the little Hispanic lady that comes along on Wednesday and Fridays and quietly asks each person if they want any Tamales. We have purchased them before and decide that it makes an easy dinner for tonight. Yes, of course we would like some. Beer and tamales. And time with my sweetheart. Priceless.
Now, getting Mister to take a selfie -- just a wee bit harder. Such is life.

Winter has Arrived
SNOW!!!! It's crazy but when the first flake fell, DFW Facebook friends knew it and spread the good news. Just a skiff resulted, but oh I love it so.
There a some things I miss about living up north. When I was sick, I couldn't handle the cold at all --- now, it's much easier and I do miss the snow -- to look at. I don't miss driving or shoveling it at all.
Several time throughout the afternoon, Mister and I just stood and looked out the door. Doesn't it make you want to snuggle?
