St. Valentine's Day

It has been a long time since I have had an opportunity to write and update my blog. Not that anyone is reading this regularly except my wife and she has been since banned from reading this blog at work. The frozen food packaging company, for which my wife works, has set up the internet in such a way that many sites are blocked, each employee has only a certain amount of quota time each day, and if you visit any one site too often, then it becomes restricted. But, I send out a God bless you, to my wife who is a great supporter of the things that her husband loves.
It is St. Valentine's Day and I have to say, so what, and who cares? Well, my wife, for one cares a good deal. A few years ago a friend of mine and I decided to not get anything for our wives for Valentine's Day. He bailed on me and I followed through. (He must fear his wife more than I.) Anyway, was I ever in the doghouse? I have learned my lesson. I do not go over-the-top, but my lady is not one who needs someone to go over-the-top. She just wants to be remembered. I do not always say it, but she is daily remembered. Regardless of whatever conflict we might be going through, I always remember that God brought her to me and that I love her and she loves me. This might sound like gooey dribble, but we all need a little of that now and then.
My main problem with St. Valentine's Day is that so many couples only celebrate each other on February 14th. Shame on you men out there who do not do the little things throughout the year to remind her that she is a gift from God.
