- Valentine's Day
- My birthday on Feb 23
- Birthdays of several friends and relatives in February
- President's Day holiday/long weekend
- Mardi Gras (sometimes it's in March, but usually Feb)
- My work anniversary (this week I've been with my department for 22 years!)
- Finally…everything is RED RED RED which is my fave color
- Oh, and let's not forget…I only eat red candy, and February is the month of red candy!
card, bouquet, and some Swedish fish (red of course). I gave him a card and a box of Chinese fortune cookies (one of his favorite things...you can eat 5 for 100 calories). Then he cooked a nice breakfast for us, and we spent most of the afternoon watching movies on TCM. For dinner we had a Papa Murphy's chicken-bacon-artichoke thin crust pizza.Today has been a quiet Presidents' Day holiday. Hub had to work, so I took B for a long walk and then cleaned out all the drawers and cupboards in the bathroom. Question...Why do "people" (meaning hub and me) keep almost empty bottles, boxes and tubes? For example, we had several cough medicine bottles with literally 1 tablespoon left. Crazy! I packed up a full garbage bag full of that kind of shit. I also realized that every time we go to Costco, we buy another 2-pack of various pain meds (like Tylenol, Aleve, and Advil) and if I had just checked, we already have all that stuff stored in the back of one cupboard (the 2nd bottle of the 2-packs we bought LAST TIME we went to Costco)! So we currently have 3 HUGE Costco-MEGA-SIZE bottles each of those 3 medications, enough to last us for probably 10 years...if we have a headache every day.
Tomorrow is Mardi Gras (aka Fat Tuesday) so I'll be going to Seattle's Pioneer Square with a girlfriend for the evening. Yay! Then we'll stay overnight at a hotel so we don't have to drive after having adult beverages. And then I'll go to work a bit late on Wednesday.
That's it for now…I'll try to take some pictures of my Girls' Night Out!
P.S. I just realized this is my 200th post!
