How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Valentines Day is Not for Sissy’s

in Uncategorized on 02/14/10

chocolate I for one adore Valentine’s Day.

An excuse to sleep in. If I get really lucky, if he wants to get lucky, breakfast in bed.

The joy I get from buying my babies some chocolate and silly stuffed chihuahua puppies.

Countertops covered in home made chocolate cup cakes, pink icing of course.

Little gifts of flowers and candy from Romantic Hubby.

A reminder to slow down and take some time for those you hold dearest.

The problem with Valentine’s Day, what about those St.Valentine forgot this year?

Granny likes my phone call, but misses her husband, gone more then 14 years now.

The holiday shines a bright pink spotlight on my girlfriend struggling with a new separation.

A friend, who is struggling with her health, doesn’t really feel much like embracing the spirit of Cupid this year.

To all of my dear friends not feeling the pink this year.

I wish you chocolate, and warm fuzzy feelings the whole year through…not just on this Hallmark Holiday.

      That was really nice, thank you! I like how you don’t live in a tunnel, but remember those who have different situations in life. It’s a balance not everyone can see. I think it’s pretty great you are like that, and shows you have great character.

      I bet the little girls loved their gifts, they sound very cute!

      Great post – I just called my mom and wished her Happy Valentine’s Day – thanks for reminding me – she lost her Valentine (my dad) almost 2 years ago..

      Love to you

      So does my wife. She expects all the usual romantic gestures that the day denotes. And knowing what’s good for me, she gets them too.

      Hope you got your breakfast in bed…..if he knows what’s good for him too.

And then there’s @loviamykonos. 🤍

Looking for a hotel in Mykonos? This one has stunning views, the warmest staff, dreamy boutique-style surrounding and an unmatched location.

There were so many moments sitting on our terrace, looking out over the Aegean, we’d look at each other and say, “Can you believe we’re here! That this is real!” 💕
Lovia, you were pure magic. ✨
We left a little piece of our hearts there. 🇬🇷🤍

    Squee! It’s that time again — planning another #HomeExchange getaway!
Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!

Do you have a favourite town or lake in cottage country? Tell me!!

One annual membership fee + listing our home = unlimited swaps all year long. Affordable luxury travel for the win.

If you want to travel more often and live like a local, you need to check out @homeexchangecom.
