I bought some Valentines stuff for the kiddies and was shocked at how much it cost. It was fucking ridiculous. A stuffed bear at Hallmark cost eighty dollars, and Build a Bear Workshop was even worse. What the hell is that shit? I bought them stuff anyway, but boy was I not happy about how much I had to pay. I could have bought them so much more, if stuff wasn’t so astronomical. I just have to shake my head and keep on truckin though.

The kids were happy and I was about broke, but we had a great time. We brought out the Fondue pot and melted cheese and then chocolate and had a special dinner with just the three of us. It was really fun to do and to watch their faces when I told them what we were doing for Valentines dinner. I wish you could have seen them, it was so comical. I hadn’t used that pot since their father and I split up. I am glad I made new memories with it. I am even happier that I made my kids my Valentines this year. You can never go wrong  when you spend quality time with your kids.

We have begun the dog days of summer. Every day is hot with a chance of thunderstorms. Thankfully, we have not heard much about hurricanes. Maybe this year will just be hot and not so much other bad weather. The heat I can bear, as I work inside all day. The worst part is getting into a steamy hot car and a steering wheel too hot to hold.
