The old Valentines are the best. I don’t like the modern ones that assault people with awful humor and awkward situations. There’s no grace to them. Thank you for sharing these.
Perfect…your 1000 and Valentines…sincere congratulations on your blogennium…don’t think I will live long enough to match this achievement but will try…hearts to you Carl..may your life be blessed with love…
Stoop? I thought that was top shelf. I tried shacking up but she expected sheets on the bed, curtains instead of aluminum foil on windows and tossed all my “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter” tub food containers. She also expected me to get a vacuum cleaner. Sheesh.
