Burn out, bad attitude etc. Having the last few days off has done wonders for me. Gotta love a long weekend! D and I are planning a few days in Vegas in May and I'm planning a long weekend in San Francisco in August. I'm going to invite a few girl friends but if nobody wants in, I'm going anyway.

I just can't imagine not celebrating the love you have in at least a small way.

Why not treat yourself on V-Day. I think I'll take myself out to lunch! You've definitely got the right idea. As for readership, mine's never been very big so it might be easier for me to say this, but I really don't care about the numbers anymore. With that said, there are about a dozen or so people I hear from pretty regularly, and if they went away, I'd be pretty sad. Outside of myself they're what keep me going. On that note, thank you so much for your comments here. They mean so much.<br />Brass Honeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05633964614383447886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293751994881931803.post-9383859375318066232014-02-12T17:36:40.787-08:002014-02-12T17:36:40.787-08:00Amazing results for sure!

I went for a year straight for a tare in my knee, like you, two docs wanted to operate. He'll no! I stopped going for a long time after my knee started feeling better. Oh how I've missed it. No joke, I slept like a baby last night. Soo glad it worked for you too, and this linkup is pretty much the holy grail of lineups for me so consider me all in :)Brass Honeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05633964614383447886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293751994881931803.post-58009959786129979692014-02-12T16:52:07.264-08:002014-02-12T16:52:07.264-08:00There really are a lot of V day haters; my husband...There really are a lot of V day haters; my husband included and after last year-I'm over it!! But I see nothing wrong with enjoying a little extra sweetness on that day. And I totally love chocolate for breakfast.

I totally get the ...Ahh Shannon, I have missed you! I totally get the feeling of needing to regroup and had a little stint offline last week. It done me the world of good! I don't know how you do it! This blog and working your ass off in your day job - you totally deserve some of those Nordstrom goodies! I don't think it's in your nature to be average. Ever. <br /><br />Chocolate is my weakness too - I really need to get on the wagon again (after valentines). Glenn baked me an ice-cream cake for my birthday on Sunday and I've been eating pretty much a slice every day since! Sooo bad. How's cooking going?<br /><br />I like Valentines too - as you say you totally don't give your other half your devoted love and attention all year round - it's impossible! Being with someone is more than that it's helping each other with the daily struggles, the stressful times in work etc and knowing when the other needs space/time to do their own thing. Valentines, though heavily commercialised these days, is the perfect reminder. Though it falls 4 days after my birthday so I often get the "this is for your birthday and valentines" tried on me - eh no! lol<br /><br />I hope you and D have a lovely Valentines and enjoy the peace of being offline for a few days :) <br /><br />XO<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293751994881931803.post-53490532227367086912014-02-12T13:11:17.779-08:002014-02-12T13:11:17.779-08:00I've been wanting to try acupuncture for my mi...I've been wanting to try acupuncture for my migraines but kind of nervous!<br /><br />And I would totally gag about a mole- in fact, I just did.
