Ted and I don't do a lot for St. Valentine's day, but on Saturday we went to a Valentine's dance, and took Debbie, our friend who hauled Gussie home for us. We had a wonderful meal featuring stuffed pork tenderloin- I got the recipe :o) - and there was a good band. Three elderly ladies came to sit with us, we discovered that they were all celebrating their 86th birthday, and they came to dance- and they had a string of gentlemen who kept them on the dance floor- they were still dancing when we left at 10:30! They were all good dancers, and we really enjoyed their company. Inspiring!
We spent the weekend hauling wood, Debbie took a load home, and we hauled two more loads yesterday. I'm a little sore today, but I bet Ted is really sore as he worked really hard and is still not 100% from his hernia operation in January.
Debbie went for a little ride on Beamer, it's always nice for me to see someone else enjoying my special boy. She commented on how powerful he feels; and I think it sure is nice that someone can feel that power and feel how easy he is to ride.
We have had a lot of rain over the last 24 hours, and the snow is rapidly disappearing, to be replaced by mud as we wait for the ground to thaw.
Today is the day that Velvet gets a visit from her prospective new owner, so I'm really looking forward to that- hopefully I won't have to groom too much mud off her to make her look respectable!

Sounds like fun on Sat. I love to see elderly people having a good time. Good luck with Velvet.
Good luck with the perspective buyers. We don't do too much fussin' for clients. We let them do the brushing to show them how quiet they'll be for grooming.
Sounds like fun, we don't do much either, the hubby did buy me a dozen roses and some candy! I sure know how it feels to do wood and I feel for your soreness!
Glad you had a fun Valentines day! Debbie looks god on Beamer too. good luck with the buyers.
It's been dry here, and windy. I mean howling for days on end. When it stops for a while, it seems it's only to gain more strength. At least it's not cold and the snow's about gone.
Sounds like a good time. All the best with your prospective buyers.

I love how you say "respectable" lol
Hope things work out with the prospective buyer.
As you know we worked, but that's the restaurant life.
