Waiting Patiently...

Mike told me not to leave the house today, not only because of the frigid temperatures, but because he has ordered something to be delivered. I'm going to take a wild guess and say that it's flowers, but maybe it's a Ford Explorer.

Update: Alas, there was no Ford Explorer delivered here today. But a large bouquet from Safeway arrived here around 4:00. I phoned Mike as I was opening up the package. Mike asked if I liked the balloon. My response was, "What balloon?". Then, when I finished unwrapping the flowers, much to my dismay, I saw the leaves were all frozen and turning that dark, mushy green like rotten spinach and the roses were all smooshed! After a quick phone call to the floral department, I am set to pick up my brand new, fresh bouquet of yellow roses and my balloon at 8:30 tonight! I think I will pick up some mini sponge cakes, whip cream and strawberries and, once Joel is in bed, I will put on my PJs, make a pot of tea and curl up with one of the books my mother-in-law dropped off yesterday. Happy Valentine's Day to me!
