Blue is the sky this beautiful morning, gray is the way I feel on certain holidays such as Valentine’s Day. Perhaps a day that was invented by Hallmark or some card company to turn a profit but it can be a tough day for many.
Blue And Gray
I agree with everyone else. I agree it’s a Hallmark holiday but it still makes some people feel bad. That’s why we have each other on here!
Awww that’s wonderful, thanks! I very rarely visit an actuall Hallmark store even though I know where one is!
Thse celebratory days can be the worst for many
I think the worst times for some people is the Christmas season. Fortunately, I can fly home to Michigan to be with family at that time.
Happy Valentine’s Day, John. Think of it as a day to remember that you have a lot of blogging friends and enjoy the day with those good thoughts.
Hi Anneli, thank you! And to you as well. I was just chatting with my dad and sister in Florida, happy valentines day! Maybe next year will be different.
It’s good knowing they’re there, and how nice it is that you can talk to them.
It’s so good to talk with my family, the choice to stay in Las Vegas after the D was well thought out, a solid choice. Moving home to Michigan would be better for seeing the family more often of course, but I wouldn’t be happy there because of the climate. It’s tough being far from my son and daughter, but they are adults and have their own lives. Even my dad said I wouldn’t be happy in Michigan because of the weather, and I’m only 61! ☺️
You’re so right about kids having their own lives when they’re grown up. They love you but they’re busy with their own day to day things. You just have to make yourself happy, and keep in touch by phone or email or however you prefer. A visit now and then is good too, but you’re smart to live where you want to live.
Wow, thanks so much, Anneli! I do love it here.
Terrific photos John!
Thank you! ❤️
Catsandcoffee said it best, John. Consider this one of those penny Valentines that we used to give out in grade school: Be my Valentine? We understand this is not a fun day for you…
Thanks! I feel a bit grumpy today but this will pass. Counting my blessings! 🙏🏻❤️
I LOVE that road winding between the palm trees. 😉
Thanks, that’s the main entrance to the Marriott hotel on Rampart Boulevard. I was on the bike, wanted to get these photos for a while now.
Nice pictures. Luckily, this day only comes once a year. Your friends and family still love and care about you, so, you aren’t missing out.
Wow, thank you sooo much my friend! You are so kind. 🙏🏻
