This is a Valentine that I made for Alana.  I made David one too.  There wasn’t much to his though.  I found a quote and I wrote it in calligraphy on a card with some hearts.  I thought it was a beautiful quote and being that it was straight forward and not as dramatic as most cards seem to be, I thought he’d get it and appreciate the fact that it wasn’t mushy.  I think he liked it.  (I still don’t think he got it though) and Alana loved hers.

      I had planned some time back to do some candy ACEO’s for Valentine’s Day.  But my two Valentine’s Day cards were about it.   I was sick for about a week and I thought I may have gotten a stomach virus, but there were two obvious symptoms that I won’t name that you could probably guess that I didn’t have.  I was just weak and nauseous and I couldn’t eat.  But it left as mysterious as it came.  I don’t know what it was.  I thought when you quit smoking this new healthy and energetic person would emerge, but heck, I have been sick ever since with something and I am pretty sick and tired of feeling sick and tired.  I told David if it kept on I was going to start back. 

      Last week I switched gears and did a lot  of beading that I will probably post tomorrow.  It’s a nice change from drawing.  I think it’s good to have more that one hobby even though it isn’t too good for your pocketbook.  

      Well, the dryer is buzzing.  So that’s a little clue of what is in store for me today.  Oh, Joy!
