How Sweet!

Ok so I know that Valentine's Day isn't until Saturday but I wanted to share with you some 'sweet' things that have happened the last few days.

The ABS brake light on my car has been flashing on and off for the last month or so. When it first started happening I took it to one place to have it checked out. They told me it was a problem that had just been fixed not to long ago. A very expensive problem at that. I made the choice not to have them 'fix' it at that time. It wasn't a safety problem so I figured it would be fine to have it fixed at a later date. Then all of a sudden again the light started coming on and off once again. I'm leaving for a mini vacation to Youngstown later this week, so I thought I had better have it checked out to make sure everything was still safe, especially since I will be making the trip alone! This time I thought I had better take my car to a different shop to have it looked at. So on Friday morning I took my car in and guess what...no problems to be found!!! They looked at everything and said that the problem that the other place told me needed to be fixed didn't need to be fixed at all. There were also no problems with the brakes or any part of the brakes. Thank God!!! A car with no 'problems'...how sweet.

While I waited for my car to get looked at I waited in the waiting area. There was this cute little old couple waiting for their car. I would say they were both in their late 60's or early 70's. Anyways they were sitting next to each other holding hands and talking about what they were going to do with the rest of their day. The wife was telling her husband that she wanted to go to the store on the way home to pick up a few things. Her husband told her that it was fine if she wanted to stop but wasn't sure why because they had lots of food at home. The wife then told her husband that she wanted to stop at the store so she could pick up a few things that she needed for dinner that she didn't' have. She proceeded to tell her husband that she wanted to make him his favorite meal that night for dinner. At that moment the little old man reached over and kissed his wife on the cheek. I had never seen the couple before in my life, but at that moment I felt so happy that they had each other to love and you could tell they really were in love with each other and probably had been in love with each other for many many many years. And yes, the sappy part of me almost shed a happy little tear for them. They were so dang cute. When their car was ready the mechanic called their name and the husband stood up first and reached for his wife's hand and helped her out of the chair. As they were walking out of the shop still holding hands they both looked at me and smiled and told me to have a wonderful day. How sweet!

After I left the mechanic I found myself at the mall. Shocking I know! I wanted to get Valentines cards and gifts for my friends and for all their boys for when I go to Youngstown. While I was shopping my date (from now on I'm going to refer to him as "T") called me on his lunch break to tell me "hi" and to see what I had found out about my car. I told him the good news about my car and told him that maybe just maybe my luck might be starting to swing in the other direction. T kind of chuckled and told me that he hopes that I'm right. T then told me that he had to get going back to work but that he just wanted to check and see what was wrong with my car and to tell me to have a good rest of the afternoon and he would call me after work. How sweet!!

While I was at the mall I saw this cute bathing suit. I just bought a bathing suit last summer, but it is HUGE on me because of all the weight I have lost. I haven't been able to wear a bikini in years. However I saw this tried it on and thought it looked pretty good on me and it was on sale for $30.00 so I figured I would get it. How sweet!
Now answer me this question...do you think this is an appropriate bathing suite for a 31 year old to wear or do you think it is too young looking. I came home and took a picture of me in it and now I'm thinking it should go back, the bottoms are a little low. Ahh, I just don't know. The last piece of sweetness I have for all of you are a few new pictures of Bo. He is getting really really big and doesn't look much like a puppy any more.

"What do you want from me?"

How can you not love that little face. So sweet!

"Can I please have my treat? I'm sitting like a good boy!"

There you have it sweet little Bo.

I hope you all have a day with some 'sweetness' in it.
