February the month of love, dovely things and some being remined about their single love life.
Yes, I know I am a bit late with post but it's not Valentines yet so this would be a combination of this valentines and the usual monthly post.
So lets pretend it's February first, shhh! I am listening to a new song that I have been playing on repeat ever since it came on this morning during my shower. It's something about the words that made me stop and listen while getting lost for a bit under the cascading hot water. The song is under my skin by Nate Smith I recommend you listen it for a moment something about his tone that I started to write a story about it in my head since then. Just finished my second cup of coffee on today and I thought it was time to get this blog post up before it was too late.
But saying that, sometimes being late is better then never showing up in the first place. I think that kind of complies to love as well. Here me out, saying that I think about the stories of a lost love ; the ones we hear about over history , lost love letters that people send to their loves of their lives but they never heard from them again or the person never received the letter at all. They searched for them for weeks, years but they lost hope and went on with their lives then later in life they found each other again, the lost loves as fate would have it. They still showed up for each other just took a while to find each other again five years later or twenty- five years later. I think that's a beautiful way of a love story.
I learned some other important days in this this February love month. Rose day is on the seventh. Propose day is the eighth, Chocolate day is the ninth. Teddy day is on the tenth , Promise day is the eleventh. Hug day on the twelfth , kiss day is the same day as galantines day. Isn't that interesting , I honestly Knew that each day of that week leading up to Valentines day. I think promise day is my favorite day out of all of them, what a cute day for everyone. A day of promise sounds like a beautiful day to spend with someone, to treat someone more than Valentines day. Knowing those days now , I can already plan out a story just with those days in mind and funny enough I already have a little title in mind as well.
As for Galantines day which is the day I am posting this on, is my favorite day because a bunch of ladies would get together for a cup of coffee/tea just be with each other nothing fancy. Or over the years it turned into mini cheesecakes for each one of sweet ladies from the local German bakery. I can literally taste my favorite one on my tongue, the chocolate chip cheesecake. Seating out on the desk in the heart of the town where we all grew up in. Looking at us now imagining the stories, the laughs we had and now some us have families, got the dream jobs we wished for. I think how lucky we are know to know each other through thick and thin , through sadness and in our happiest moments , we held each other up regardless in hand and hand. Happy Galantines day lovelies!
I wanted to share a few more things with you all. If you have been search of the perfect love story novel to read this month. I have my top five I can think of and I have reviewed some of them on book review page on here. Two of my favorite Nicholas Sparks books of all time made it to my list not only in the top two places. One Every Breath is by far my favorite story and it's a true story which I love the most . Two The Notebook , I think its just a classic love story but its a story about an enduring love story through it all . Virgin River by Robyn Carr was my one of favorite novels from last years reading list. I love it because the level of pain each person had in their past made them beautiful people to find love in the end but with trials still together. Next one is Me before You by Jojo Moyes another story started with a tragic beginning but through out the novel the tender love between two that shouldn't fallen in love with each other is beyond beautiful. And lastly It would be of course one for the Money by Janet Evanvoich. Because she knows how to make a girl laugh when we shouldn't be laughing and so much wit in a love story that suspense and mystery that makes a perfect romance novel.
About the kitchen sink part of this blog post... I have been a single woman for most of life when it comes this holiday , I think how special it to single during valentines week. By saying that you are thinking , yeah right. Well I treat it like every other week but I date myself for the week. Buying myself a coffee out and with the restrictions now days, what changed is I couldn't seat in the coffee shop and see all the couples treating each other with just knowing simply someone's coffee order. And side note if you haven't tried the pistachio Latte with Oat milk , I would highly recommend you do ; It tastes like Ice cream ! During Valentines week or on the day of I would sneaky buy roses for people that I know just to bright their day leaving them on their front Porsches wrapped with tissue paper and a little note attached. I believe that everyone needs a bit a love if you are coupled or not, a little bit love goes a long way regardless of the holiday to make it special. Loved buying the roses for my next-door neighbor's wife because he couldn't get to town all the time so I thoroughly enjoyed picking up her's the most because she never knew how he did it each year.
One last thing I wanted to share a thing I do for myself each year, I pick out a romantic card or two. I don't know why I even do it sometimes but when it comes to it I am an old romantic at heart. If I find one that makes me happy , again sometimes it's two; I bring them home. Last year if you remember I wrote a love story based on a particular I found in a store. One my favorite stories I have written , If I find the link I will add it. So in the end , I guess if I ever find the one , he would have lots of greeting cards from me. So I confessed my little secret , does anyone else do that ? Or am I just weird in that way? Let me know in the comments!
I must get myself going, I must make some yummy sugar cookies!
