TWENTY DAYS Of LOVE....Day Two


January 26th....‘TWENTY DAYS of LOVE’
       Day Two


This is Day Two of the ‘Twenty Days of Love’.  
Today I received a red plastic wine glass with a heart design. It was a well received item from my husband as the one I received last year broke. After all it is just plastic and a bit fragile.  I did use it for at least five months, so I guess that wasn’t too bad.  I found a heavier study plastic wine glass last year after the Valentine holiday was over.  It had been stored away until today when I gave it to my husband.  He questioned on where I got the glass as he liked it better than the one he gave me. I explained where I purchased it and that I had it hidden since the previous year.  He explained he thought it made more of a mixed drink glass (bourbon and cola) than one he uses for wine.  Like his coffee cup, he is quite particular on the glass he uses at home for wine.  Now this gets me into how people have certain type glasses or cups they use.  When we visit one of our veterans clubs, my husband requests a beer mug for his bourbon drink.  Myself, I bring my own wine glass from home as I don’t care for the ones they give me.  I knew of individuals who had a certain glass they kept at a place they frequent for drinks.  Of course these were regular customers not just the occasional visitors; but they insisted they wanted their own special glass. Now getting back on track to Valentine’s surprise, it’s fun to use the holiday themed glasses at home during the days leading up to the holiday. I’ve even used my glass from last year until it cracked.  In the past I have used the holiday themed glasses and mugs, I received over the years, as a candy dish.  Possibilities on repurposing are up to your imagination.  
It’s is fun each day to just take a few moments to give a small surprise to someone.  Generally I go to bed after my husband so I leave his surprises on the desk next to the computer.  On a chuckling note today, he appreciated the wine glass but asked why I did not give him a bottle of wine also.  Unfortunately that was not part of my program, but maybe someone else would up this day two surprise. 
Until tomorrow....enjoy your Sunday. 

Day Three Gift Idea...Bag of cinnamon candy hearts or jelly hearts.
