How'd you spend your day, sara?

Actually, I asked the kids if they wanted me to send treats in for Valentine's day. They both said yes. I asked what they wanted and Noah said, "Cookies. The kind with icing."

I asked him if he meant the sugar cookies that we got at the grocery store for his lunch. He said yes. Grace agreed.

Ohhh. They don't want me to make handmaid treats anymore. Ouch.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I think it's your boss who should call in dick, msbelle, since he acts like one.

Yes, I know. We all have ours. Yours are crafty and baking.

Non-greasy bengay, my ass.

Only my arms and shoulders. As much as my glutes hurt last monday, I didn't go there.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Ha ha msbelle! I like my boss and I like my job, but calling in dick for work? Almost worth it just to do it.

So the SO just sent me a singing telegram for Valentine's while he was away on tour! Awww.

That is incredibly sweet and romantic. You are a lucky lucky woman.

When will I learn to just buy a box of valentines instead?

I'm with sarameg on that one, but I'm also with you, Kat. We never buy store-bought valentines either. But unlike Kat I'm lazy. Usually we just make them out of construction paper. This year the kids are going to draw a picture and we'll make color copies.

I was taking the "calling in dick" idea the same way Scrappy was, but now that you mention it... hmmmmm.

the sugar cookies that we got at the grocery store for his lunch.

What is it with those cookies? My kids love them, their cousins love them. I think they are vile.
