I think you're sweet (Happy V-D!)

It seems like it's been a week since my last post, not just yesterday. I never did sit around and watch TV or have a leisurely morning. Like I really thought I would? I made my way to my parent's house. I cut my sister's hair. We visited my mom. We had another family meeting with the four of us siblings and my SIL. We really are lucky to be together. We talked a lot and made a lot of plans.

I stayed up late watching the Grammys. I just love that show. I watched it again tonight with Emily and her boyfriend Phil.

Up and out at the crack of dawn today. I did my grocery shopping on my way to my parent's (my new home-away-from-home). My sister and I signed my mom out of the rehab center and took her to lunch. She said, I hope it's Chinese. I said, yup. It was a good outing. I spent the rest of the day at my parent's house. Here's a picture of me and my sisters. None of us are looking our best, though we tried :)


Notice the matching clothes. This is the second time this week that Ilene and I have worn almost the exact thing. Great minds think alike? I love the next picture of Ilene and Lisa.


Here's one of our sweet Amanda. She's so important to us!


I came home to a great surprise Valentine's card from Emily and Phil. They both wrote notes, thanking me for all that I do. That was the best gift! I know they appreciate me, but it sure is nice to hear the words. They gave me a sunshiny yellow mini rose plant too. Rob and I spent the day apart, because of distance and work. I've never been big on celebrating this holiday, so it was OK. He's my Valentine from afar. I sure did see a lot of men leaving grocery stores today carrying out flowers! I don't mind not getting them. I always have fresh flowers on my station that I buy for myself, and that suits me just fine.

I'm ready to say good-night to Monday. I need a vacation from my weekend "off".

I love the Grammy Awards, too. And I thought the show on Sunday was one of the best ones!

Ahhh your sisters are great!! I didn't know much about your extended family. I wonder what it's like having siblings?

We survived V Day... and Lady Gaga's egg suit.

I NEVER would have recognized Ilene - I think I was 5 years old the last time I saw her. Everyone looks great! I'm so glad your mom appears to be recovering well.
