Today is my birthday. Yesterday I celebrated my Birthday Eve. I went to my AMVETS post for hops and barley water (beer). My favorite male bartender worked who I’ve nicknamed Mr. Hot & Spicy (it’s cause I hooked the guy on Middleswarth Jalapeño potato chips). Anyhow it was fun Birthday Eve event.
Today’s Valentine’s Day word was ROMANCE and/or ROMANTIC. I did one of my lake pieces on this word. I think I really enjoy using Harveys Lake as my inspiration for these pieces. The second piece focuses on a romance and the guy in the in the woman’s life.
Terry’s daily word was ANIMOSITY. I used it in a piece titled HER DECISION. This is a sequel piece to HER SECRET from yesterday’s blog. In this the woman made her choice on the two guys but I’m still not revealing which as I have envisioned more about her choice in future writings.
The wacky holiday piece was a little tricky but I think I pulled it off.
What do I plan for my birthday? Going out for lunch where as veterans both hubby and I get a food discount; as birthday girl I get free pitcher of beer. Yeah to me.
As I type this I’m wearing my tiara as I’m the QUEEN today.
This is a short read as I prepare to do nothing particular but get ready for the day. It’s Mardi Gras (Fat Tuesday) as tomorrow the season of Lent begins. So today let’s eat, drink and be merry for we must give up something for Lent; I’m giving up drinking for February 29, 30 and 31. The remaining days of Lent giving up negative people.
Until tomorrow....enjoy the day. Today is DO a GOUCH a FAVOR DAY so hope you comply; and as always Stay Safe.

SNOWY NIGHT
A sweet romantic evening
Sipping champagne....listening to Frank
Sinatra crooning love songs
Snacking on chocolate covered
strawberries....crackers
and cheese
Together side by side on the couch
Outside the snowflakes fall
Carpeting the ground in white
Another Valentine’s Day together
at the lake cottage
This marked their sixth year as lovers
💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
IRISH LUCK
Fifteen year difference in age
But to her it was just a number
Their romance flourished with each
new year
Five years as a couple....soon to celebrate
six
His smile still melted her heart
his piercing blue eyes staring at her
still gave her butterflies inside
his caress still made her tingle
He treated her like a queen....gave her the
respect she deserved
Listened intently always to her hopes,
schemes and dreams
Encouraged her to achieve her goals
They all thought he too old....she could do
better
Never caring what others did
consider....she marched to her own beat of
the drum....this was her life
She could not believe they met when they
did.....but then again it was her Irish luck
St. Patrick’s Day....when she spilled her
green beer on his white work shirt
🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
HER DECISION
He revealed no animosity towards the other
guy
They were acquaintances after all....not
best buds....but he did respected him
After all she made her choice between the
two....did she choose wisely....he
thought NO
He did not plan to see her for a few days
how could possible ask if she his
secret admirer
But the other had an advantage he did
not....her phone number....he sent
her a text
Perhaps he should have sent a message via
social media
He just politely thanked her for the Valentine
and the gift....with hope she’d eventually
change her mind

WACKY HOLIDAYS FEBRUARY 15th
(National Gumdrop Day; Susan B. Anthony
Birthday; Remember the Maine Day and
President’s Day)
A Susan B. Anthony coin I find in the sock
drawer as I prepare to ready myself for the
day
Going out to President’s Day sales and
half price chocolates and a bag of
gumdrops
Remembering that today the Naval ship
The Maine sunk contributing to the
Spanish-American War
I’ll give a moment of silence for those lost
lives as I have a mug of hops and barley
water
