Wishful Slacker

My Valentine

Didn't everyone snuggle with their cat while watching the Westminster dog show this Valentine's Day?

Hint hint!

In case the man in your life is still looking for your very romantic Valentine's Day gift. But be careful, a gift like this could easily lead to vampire babies, and I don't know if you're ready to take that step right now. Think long and hard.

Happy Valentine's Day, Baby!

Last year Jim took me to Art Smith's Table 52, where we ate some unbelievable southern fare amid soft romantic candlelight and amazing service.  When we couldn't decide between the pecan pie or hummingbird cake for dessert, we ordered both.

This year we did our best, ordering take out from Wishbone down the street- shrimp and grits, pulled pork, coleslaw, collard greens, potatoes, and cornbread.  Added to that was our own candlelight, diningroom table, some quiet Disney lullabies, and a baby. 

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Fifteen years ago today, the day before Valentine's Day, my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer.  Words cannot express how fortunate my family has been during these years to now all be healthy and happy.  This goes to show the immense importance of health awareness and surveillance.  Be aware of your health and what feels off, practice healthy habits at home, such as performing self-breast exams, eat fruits and vegetables, exercise, floss, howl at the moon, etc, and see your doctor for annual exams!  You owe it to yourself and your loved ones.

Happy Valentine's Day!
