I came home right as a florist was delivering a bouquet that looks much like this one:

Aren't they gorgeous? Will had flowers sent to me since he's gone & felt bad about not being here for Valentine's Day. I love them! All pink - does he know me well or what?!
And the mail man brought me the newest issue of my favorite ever magazine:

Oh, and I totally splurged and bought my favorite ever snack today while I was out - Petticoat Tails.

I freakin love shortbread but I never buy it so it's a real treat when I break down & splurge. I even bought two boxes of shortbread today. I was feeling very deprived after being stuck at home for 10 days & felt like I deserved it.
I am so exhausted. I didn't sleep well at all last night. Stupid sciatic nerve had my whole leg tingling and numb. I woke up at 4:00 and tossed and turned while trying to get comfortable but nothing was working. As a last resort, I ended up folding my electric blanket in half and cranking that sucker up as high as it would go and used it as a makeshift heating pad. That plus the 2 Aleve I popped finally eased the pain a bit & I went back to sleep sometime around 6:30. I was up again at 8:00. Ugh.
It's definitely going to be an early night for me. I'm heading to bed now to curl up with the doggies, my new magazine & maybe a petticoat tail or two and I'm going to try to get comfortable & relax. Will is working tonight so I'm sure I'll have to make some late night phone calls to chat with him for a bit, too.
I am so excited that the snow has receded enough that I can get out of the house. Tomorrow, I'm hitting up one of my favorite thrift stores & then doing some clothes shopping. Yay! Of course, it's supposed to snow again on Monday and Tuesday so my excitement is going to be very short-lived!! Ha!

I have family in your situation... though one is still stuck over a week now. I too have received a subscription to Country Living, however, the funny part is I have no idea who gave it to me, and living in Lower Manhattan, in NYC, I cannot imagine why anyone would think this was a good gift for me. While I can appreciate it, it's certainly not my style, and I fear a mixup is involved!! Enjoy your week and Happy Saint Valentine's Day!
