Yes today is overrated, and pretty much a fabricated Hallmark/FTD Florist holiday, but it still makes me happy when I see a bouquet of flowers on someones desk, or watch a bunch of city folk going to work in red sweaters, dresses, scarves and ties. I just love when people celebrate any holiday I guess. I want to see green on St.Patty's day for instance. Thank God Chicago makes their river green on March 17th!
Back to V-Day, it's overrated but somehow is so much better when you have someone there to share it with...not even the flowers or the dinner, but just to be there, and knowing that that love is 24/7 365 days a year. I am so excited I have Noel to share the day, or atleast the night with. I love him dearly and I can't wait to do nothing with him tonight...just being there.
>>> Sidenote: when I worked in Vallarta at Viva Joyeria, and did the window displays I always tried to bring a little holiday spirit to the mannequins, to the store. Halloween, I replaced their heads with Jack O'Lanterns, Christmas with santa hats, and on Valentine's Day...CANDY HEART HATS>>> The owner, Mary Sue, loved it so much she had me make more candy heart hats for our live models to tour the local resturants. Mary Sue passed away last March, so this blog passage goes out to her and her spirit! Love you Mary Sue.
