Happy Valentine's Day

Well, tomorrow is Valentine's Day, not really an issue in my life. LOL. For those of you who do have a partner, take the time to let them know you still care. I know Valentine's Day was just a chance to sell cards and flowers; but, as holidays go, at least it celebrates something nice. It celebrates love and I think that deserves a day of it's own.

On a side note, I saw my ex-wife's sister's ex-husband. He was in town near my office and wondered if I might like to get a cup of coffee with him and we did. Well, actually, I got green tea and lemonade. After 40 years or so of drinking coffee, I just sort of stopped about a year ago. I have no idea why, it just sort of happened. He didn't have a lot of time; but, he did show me a picture of his wedding. After his wife left him, he found a new lady in his life. She was very pretty and sounds like a terrific person. I was glad for him.

We didn't really talk much about our ex-wives, it was the first chance we have had to see other since it all began. While I have known him for 28 years or so, we haven't seen each other in probably 5 years or so. It was nice to know that he was doing better and to see pictures of my niece and nephew, they grow so very quickly. While I am on good terms with my ex-wife's family (I just saw her brother two weeks ago and will always love my mother in law), I am not on good terms with her sister. We don't communicate; but, I really have less to say to her than I do to my ex-wife. Heck, I have talked to my ex more than her sister in the last 5 years and I would define my relationship with my ex as cordial.

Not all love works out; but, there is always hope. I post a song of hope and wish you all a Happy Valentine's Day.
