HAPPY PALENTINE'S DAY

Here is an e-mail message that I received today from a girlfriend I met when we were all stationed at Ramey Air Force Base in Puerto Rico in the 60's. Her friend wrote it, and she liked it so much that she sent it on to her friends. Perhaps you will want to send it on to your girl friends too. Maybe next year we can find "Palentine" cards in the shops.

This morning as I was putting on my red turtleneck and heart jewelry, I was thinking less of romance (please don’t tell the salamander!) and more of all the women friends I have that mean so much to me, and where would I be without them? You, my friend, are one of those women. You have been there for me, have added richness and joy to my life, and have accepted me just as I am, and have allowed me to be a part of your life. These are the relationships that are most lasting and influential in my life, and I am who I am today because of all of you! THAT”S what Valentine’s Day should be all about and we could call it Pal-entine’s Day! So happy Palentine’s my dear friends!! You rock. And you are all on my mind today.
Much love and gratitude,

XOXO

SO HAPPY PALENTINE'S DAY TO ALL OF MY WONDERFUL GIRLFRIENDS TOO!

Today is Bill's birthday. I bought myself a nice plant Saturday for him to give me because otherwise he will stand in line somewhere (probably with all the other guys at See's Candy), and I don't think that's right on his birthday. We can't even go out to dinner for his birthday because the restaurants are too crowded. (Peter always hopefully suggests "I bet we can get into Hooters.")
