It is beautiful. I haven't been in it, so I'm excited.

I'm happy because it's Valentines Day and I splurged this time and bought my wife a piece of jewelry just so we could momentarily forget that I'm in school and that we have no money.

That is very sweet. My husband never buys stuff for Valentine's. Too close to our anniversary. He gets romance overload and can't deal.

haha. I think a lot of guys feel that way around this time, even without an anniversary of some sort.

Well, I'm happier because I'm still feeling crummy w/ the flu but my mom sent me a Valentine's Day e-card. Such a nice little surprise, you know. Makes me feel less lonely. :)

Edit: Wow, my dad just emailed me to say hello. He just rarely does that. Like, never.  Hey, and my bro just texted me, too. Funny kid. Gee, I'm feelin' the love! :D Now all I need is a BIG box of chocolates to eat after my class tonite...

I'm so happy to be home with my family!  :-* :)

We just had a Valentine's lunch--it was the only time we could all be together, between our work schedules. So Dad came home from work for lunch and Mom had Valentine's gifts for all of us and we had a good time. My family is really cool. I'm lucky to have a prolonged amount of time with them right now, for a little while.

I'm so excited it's Friday and I'm so excited that Monday is a holiday for which I will be paid. Getting paid to stay at home and do whatever you want is so wonderful. Sure, I don't get paid vacation as of yet, but at least I get holidays! Yea!

The soothing sound of rain makes me happy. And sleepy. Off to bed!

I fixed my car today. All I needed was a hairdryer, a jump and some starter fluid. It still has a little bit of a rough idle (probably from a weak fuil injector or a dirty fuel system) but I just hope it keeps running for a while.

It's my birthday and I'm very happy today. You can read the novel-length version on my livejournal if you'd like.

Love and kisses to all!  ;D

Holy Toledo, gas is down to $2.09 a gallon! That makes me happy.

I just made my appointment for sinus surgery today. March 16. This makes me happy because I anticipate that after fixing my deviated septum (which currently blocks my right nostril) and opening up some sinus passageways, I will hopefully not get so sick anymore. Here's hoping.

Yes, drop us a reminder when the day comes. It sounds like the surgery will be just what you need. :)
