It's Valentine's Day?
I completely forgot about Valentine's this morning. And mostly forgot about it this previous weekend and week. Mom suggested I get S a mini coffeepot for his work, but I realized he probably didn't need/want one and that's as far as I got for thinking about Valentine's. S did much better than me - he was here this weekend and before leaving he hid a gift in my bedroom and told me about it on the phone this morning. How absolutely marvelous is he? I've been with him for 8 months now and (know I want to marry him) and I've never ceased to be amazed by his marvelousness. And here I barely remembered to say Happy Valentine's Day. really. I don't know how well I'm holding up my end of the romance, although I do send him letters of love.

I gave my kids at school little 20-cent plastic finger puppets that I used to have when I was young. They were all amused by them at least. I thought it was a pretty succesful "gift" if it could "please" both genders and ranges in ages from 9 to 18. What fun.

So, these ideas that have been stewing have a lot more stewing to do, but they're exciting ideas about what I want to do with my life and what I'll need to do to make that happen. It's going to be a lot of work, but I'm excited.

Now time to go work on them I guess.

One of these days I'll write more. As said before, I do enjoy it.
