Valentine’s Day

And what a Valentine’s Day it has been. Sandy surprised me today with a trip to a local spa for both of us — we both had massages and facials. It was incredibly relaxing and just what we needed after the past week. It was my first massage ever and of course my first facial (Sandy’s first facial too), so all you guys out there who think facials are just for women, take it from me — they feel really good - just try it. Because women know how to live - we can learn from them, believe me. And now I truly understand why Sandy loves getting massages too.

Luckily Sandy’s chemo symptoms started to lessen yesterday and she felt good enough to go to the spa today — which she had reserved a month ago, not knowing she would be feeling so bad during the next chemo round. So after the 3-hour spa treatment, we drove the 25 miles to one of our favorite restaurants for a wonderful meal, the first real food Sandy has had in days.

So today has been pure joy for me… to see Sandy feeling good and relaxed, looking beautiful… and eating dessert!

Happy Valentine’s Day…

Good night,
