LOVE

HAPPY VALENTINE 's DAY to all our loved ones. Isn't it wonderful to be loved. The most important love of all is GOD'S love and if we love God then we know how to love others. We are so blessed and have so many people that loves us. Just think Dad and I have loved each other for 60 some years.

It's time for your history lesson.
In the middle ages, people believed that the first unmarried person of the opposite sex you met on the morning of St Valentines Day would become your spouse.
About 1 billion Valentine cards are exchanged each year. That's the largest card sending occasion next to Christmas.
In 1866, candy manufacturer Necco made the first "Conversation Hearts"-then called "Motto Hearts".
In Greek history Cupid was known as Eros. the son of Aphrodite. the goddess of love and beauty.
The Italian city of Verona. where Shakespeare's lovers Romeo and Juliet lived, receives about 1,000 letters every year sent to Juliet on Valentine's Day.
The Celtic love knot symbolizes a love that has no beginning and no end.
The next time you play Trivia this may help.

We have a carry in dinner tonight at the clubhouse so we are postponing our dinner till another day.
Dad is feeling good and so am I, maybe it is because the sun is shining and the thermometer is going up.
Didn't do anything this week so I cooked and played cards. Cory you sure missed your favorite meal, Grandpa said if Cory was here we wouldn't have any leftovers.
We received a care package of Valentine Cookies they are delicious, thanks Ersta and Mark.
Miss all of our loved ones - take care in all that snow.

Thought for the day "Don't argue with an idiot; people may not be able to tell the difference".
