Still, it's a day to celebrate love, and I have plenty of reasons to smile today. I have a wonderful, funny, devoted husband. I have an incredible family. My sweet little cousin is getting married on Friday and I can't wait to celebrate with her this weekend. Another cousin is getting married in a month or so and we're excited to plan our trip to Austin, to toast a super fun couple (they biked from the top of Alaska to South America together before deciding to get married. Super fun people!).
My life is full of love and I think it's a great day to stop and recognize that. There are so many things to love in the world. Even if the list seems a little ridiculous, here are some of the things I love today.
- my cats
- my clutch wallet
- J. Crew t-shirts
- my mom
- ballet flats
- Florence and the Machine
- my happy pills
- afternoon naps
- tacos
- pretty lingerie
- piles of bracelets
Obviously in no particular order, and not exhaustive.
Someone pointed out that my outfit today is kind of festive. I actually forgot it was V-day until my husband told me after I was already dressed. So I guess this is my subconscious coming out.
Aww, you can see the huge ass pimple on my face. How nice. I'm approaching Kelly Kapowski territory here. I should have painted my whole face red and pretended it was festive.
Don't worry I don't actually have jaundice!
I hope everyone is having a great V-day! I'll leave you with this, the card I gave my hubs, who has been there for me every step of the way. Even when it wasn't easy.
It will be framed above my desk pretty soon. A good reminder of all the love I get to experience every day.
