this year for valentine's day...

... i worked all day.  we ate dinner at home together, then steve had class,  so i did 4 loads of laundry in 1 1/2 hours... apparently everyone else had better things to do than use the laundry room on v day.
           
      ... but, we did get a fish tank together (last friday-you're supposed to let the water/filter/plants sit for a few days before you start adding fish- so we bought it early, so we could have the fish by valentine's day).  Now we have molly-goldfish, her late husband arthur didn't make it... she was quite aggressive toward him during feeding times... =(  charlie-our aquatic african dwarf frog- is quite cute, then there's bob the plecostomus (sucker fish... he cleans), and last but not least moose and squirrel our snails... we haven't seen them in a few days... not sure what they're up to.  there is a coliseum in there that i think they've been hiding inside of... i'll post a pic sometime.  it's so soothing to watch the fish and plants swim/sway and to listen to the water pour out of the filter.
      ... and we dressed up and went out to dinner last night to celebrate and spent the rest of the evening at home... it was so nice.  i love steve so deeply.  it's funny that we've got this holiday set aside to show you loved one you love them...  it's nice to have an extra reason to celebrate him though and have time set aside for just us.  
                    happy valentine's day
