A monkey's uncle
Here I was expecting absolutely nothing and ended up with more bling, yum, cuddly things and pretties than I've had in this lifetime if you add all the Valentine's Days together.
Wow! How'd that happen?
It all started when Jason, a media friend, slipped me the late birthday gift (shiny 'C' key chain) and Valentine's gift (chocolate hearts) over coffee this morning.
Then my kids came home with a cake that Dana won at school and we went shopping. They picked me out the monkey and I went to cover a school board meeting. The chair, Wanda, slipped me the rose on our way out and Mario, the director, passed me a little box of Laura Secord chocolates.
There were also cards and cookies from my kids (courtesy of my ex and his girlfriend believe it or not) and a card from an old friend. (Damn skeletons keep getting out of the closet).
As I said, wow, what a day!
I got a beer. At least it was Heineken.
