flowers n such

So today while I was at work, one of the loan officers got flowers delivered to her. I like to call them “just because” flowers. For you lucky girls who get these “just because” flowers, I hope you know just how lucky you are! I haven’t gotten flowers since the day Jeff and I moved into our condo… This was, I have to admit, one of the sweetest, most unexpected things he has ever done for me! They were the most beautiful red roses with a note attached “Looking forward to our eternity together. Love Jeff” Even now when I remember, it makes me teary-eyed. ( He can be so sweet sometimes)

I dried them and still keep them in a vase on the shelf of our entertainment center.

But still, I long to get some “just because” flowers one day. Who will join me in saying “guys, just because we said ‘yes’ doesn’t mean you don’t have to try anymore! We still try to do things to make you happy, give it a little more effort.”

I sometimes find that when I’m feeling this way; however, that rather than harping on my hubby to be sweet again… I can just go through old pictures and memories of the times when he was. WARNING: This can also have the negative side effect of reminding you of MANY other things he used to, but doesn’t do any longer PROCEED WITH CAUTION.
