Quotes of Note

You're born a male but you have to CHOOSE to be a man" - Herm Edwards

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" - Unknown

"They err who think Santa Clause comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." - Mrs. Paul M. Ell

"Thankfully, our true roots are in heritage and not things. I just need to keep reminding myself that things are only reminders of heritage." - Keetha Broyles, June 21, 2010

"Tears lubricate the soul." - from "Finding Buck McHenry"

"Somehow you must come to understand that God is love, that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness is the proof of love." - The Priest in "Levi's Will" by W. Dale Cramer

"The truth about a man is in what he does, not what he says." - W. Dale Cramer in "Levi's Will"

"Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." - G. K. Chesterton

Do We Know How to Celebrate or WHAT!?!

It's Valentine's Day

So Fisherhubby and I celebrated!!

We went ALL OUT!!

First we went to the library and checked out books.

Next we went to El Mezcal for dinner - - - at 4:30 PM.

After dinner we strolled through Wal-Mart
And bought rubber bands.
(What did you THINK I was gonna say we bought???)

Now we're home watching TV.

'Cause that's just the kind of
"Wild and Crazy" couple we are!!!

Hope you had an equally enjoyable day

With YOUR Valentine.

From the Kitchen said...: I'm just back from Paris where my husband flew us for a special dinner. I'm pooped but have to put the dozens of roses that he sent me in water before I can go to bed. I think next year I'll insist on a hamburger at Culver's since I think they are some of the best I've had.

Best,

nancygrayce said...: I'm pretty sure we can beat you on the romance scale! We ate cheese and pnuts at home and hubby is sound asleep. He's such a hopeless romantic! :); February 14, 2011 at 9:06 PM
Doris Sturm said...: Man, you guys sure know how to live life on the edge - LOL - sounds like my kind of a day IF I had a guy!

Being together is all that matters, even if you only buy rubber bands LOL
But that dinner sounds good - I LOVE Mexican food!; February 14, 2011 at 9:55 PM
Kristin - The Goat said...: SOunds like the day my husband and I had! We went to the airport to drop off a rental car and then went to a pizza place for dinner. Then we came home and watched TV and I edited photos :)

I"m so glad you enjoyed my Valentines post today - that cowboy hat wearing sculpture was quite a find!

Martin LaBar said...: Rubber bands? That's a stretch.; February 15, 2011 at 4:55 AM
Ann in the UP said...: Oh, that Martin! What a card!

We celebrated the day by being apart, for once. I shopped for bargains at Shopko---a semi-annual event, then went to knitting at the library.

Doesn't absence make the heart grow fonder? I was rewarded with crab cakes at home for supper. Lucky me.; February 15, 2011 at 7:02 AM
Janet, said...: That sounds about like what we did. Except we didn't go out to eat. I made homemade lasagna that looked awful, my son came in with a heart shaped box of candy for me and my husband told him that after he saw what I cooked he might want to take the candy back! We also strolled through Wal-Mart, he had to get a card for me and flowers. (He always waits till the last minute); February 15, 2011 at 7:28 AM
Unknown said...: Sounds like you guys had a good time together. We never try to go out to eat on Valentines since it's so crowded anyway. Have a great week!; February 15, 2011 at 8:13 AM
Anonymous said...: Very cute post and we are about as wild and crazy as you two: we had hot dogs and listened to old Barry White music and laughed histerically!!!; February 15, 2011 at 12:28 PM
Cass @ That Old House said...: "Went to Wal-Mart," eh? Is that what you kids are calling it these days? I know a euphemism when I see one ....
