Greetings, Milo and I had a good walk. It's been cold and dry. Milo "bounced"down the driveway and chased imaginary bunny rabbits. We raised the flag. Bob passed Milo TWO treats from the school bus window as all the kids watched.
As we walked to the fork, I told Milo a story about the first year Janice and I were married. Jan's birthday was approaching and I wanted to do something special for her. Money was more than a little tight. I pondered for a while and then came up with an idea. I went to the drug store and purchased a bunch of candles and some bubble bath. I made a stop at the liquor store and purchased a bottle of Matrini & Ross, Asti, and two flute glasses. Now, I have never professed to be much of a cook, but I can fix a few things. I fixed her dinner. It was ready when she arrived home from work. It was a very good evening.

Such a romantic you are, David, but those are the very best gifts...gifts from the heart...so much love attached to them. Chris
you always leave out the best parts !!!! Sounds very romantic

I could learn from your writing style. I've been accused of lack of brevity when I write. Maybe when I retire? You are the romantic. and talking to your dog, that's sweet... reminds me of the book, Conversations with My Dog by Zig Ziglar. Bea
BTW, David, may I add your journal link to my Other Journals column? Bea
How cute and sweet David! I talk to my dog too! lol All the time! I think it's because we can say whatever we want and that won't laugh, ridicule, talk back or look at us funny. We can just talk about anything and everything and they will just patiently listen!
You were so sweet to make dinner for Janice! :) I'm sure she thought so too!

How very endearing--the way you describe it. A gem for future grandkids and great grandkids to read to know what their Great grandparents were really like. :-) E. Schawo
What a special way to celebrate Janice's birthday. To me something my boyfriend thought and planned, or made on his own is so much more personal. Of course I would never turn away jewelry!!!!!! Ha Ha!!
