The best project you'll ever work on is "YOU"


 It's "Happy Hearts Day"--I hope that all your hearts are full of love!---Do you remember having Valentines  Parties when yu were in Public School?--And remember buying a book of Valentine Cards and yu had to cut them out?---Then came the wee boxes of tiny cards---  no cutting involved--All yu had too do was sign the back --and say who it was to----It used to take me ages to figure out who got what card.

And the party at school was fun---lotza candy---- and exchanging cards . I remember one girl always told me that her Gramma had sent her fancy handkerchiefs  for Valentine's Day. I was impressed! My Gramma never did that!--And looking back now, probably she was just telling me that----probably it never happened! 

It is cold again to-day--minus 36C when I took Lopez, the Chihuahua,  outside--and low and behold, he did his business---BOTH!----It really is a chore to get him out in that sort of temperature . First , his parka has to be zipped up on him, then my parka with face mask and boots --then the leash--- Lord love a Duck! I will appreciate Springtime! 

I called the vet to book his (Lopez) --neutering ---  and to get that undescended testicle--- and it is booked for April 26th --  She said the whole thing will be about $800 -- One must be rich I think, these days, to own pets.


-And--These special people Are "YOU"---Make it a great day---Think Happy thoughts--   Hug your dog--and your cat--and remember-----

  2. "Happy Valentines Day" to you & Fred. I hope you have something special planned, maybe a meal, back massage - you name it!

    My wee Chihuahuas never went out doors in the winter time. They are so tiny, they near freeze. We had an enclosed patio attached to our house & I'd put pee pads on there, so they used those. My last Chi never, ever, was fully housebroken, sad to say. If in a room alone, she'd do her business. It was like 'well they aren't in the room, they won't know!' lol

    Enjoy this special day. You're fortunate to have a mate that you can celebrate with together.

    Lots of Hugs & Love to both you, Fred & the pets. xoxo

  3. Happy Valentine’s Day to you! I sure do remember those cards, and the showbox we all had to decorate to receive the cards. Everyone got a card. Sweet times. Fun party, too.

    Yes, these little dogs do need to be bundled up to go out in such bitter cold temperatures. And you’re busy dressing yourself as well! Glad Lopez did his biz outside. Good boy.

    For sure, vet visits and procedures are pricey. But no choice. We are committed to keeping our fur babies happy and well.

    HUGS and happy Valentine’s Day to you and Himself.

    Hugs

  7. Happy Valentines Day to you and Fred. Still really cold up there. It's still cold here too but not as bad as you. Lopez is being a good boy. Guess son #3 is on his way to Ottawa - hope it goes well for him.

  11. Oh, yes, I remember those days... you had to bring a valentine for everyone in the class so that no one would feel left out! And I remember the ones that had to be cut out, or punched out, then the ones that came pre-cut, etc.

    I never much liked this popularity contest aspect to the day.

    Hope you have a warm and cozy Valentine's Day!

  13. I agree with you - one must be rich to own a dog these days. Hope it warms up for you soon.

  20. Another one I missed due to preparation for my trip. Gosh, I must have recently been as busy as you are!

    We had a small luncheon party for a friend who has a Valentine birthday. He gave us bitty boxes of candy in heart shaped boxes.

    I do remember those school parties!

    I leave for my daughter's house in a few hours. She will take me to the airport in the morning to go to Hawaii...with a layover in Denver. Wish your son was the pilot.

    Hope I will get time to do this there. Who knows, though with 6 of my darling grandchildren running around...and the pool...and the beaches...and Volcano National Park...and the macadamia nuts...and palm trees...(I have never seen one in person)...and our dolphin encounter...{{{HUGS}}}
