My golden is a sock thief - loves to grab the socks, run with them, make you chase her, and she makes sure she puts a hole in the sock. We love her and don't care - we buy more socks. It's actually my husband's socks she goes after. Oh well!
I so enjoyed this. I am married for 27 years and always was mushy about Valentine's Day but realize that after all these years together, I don't need this holiday - my life is a Valentine and a card, gifts, and flowers are not required. For us, the comfort of our relationship and friendship is what matters - the rest is a bonus but doesn't define us. Our anniversary falls on Feb. 17 and we celebrate that as a combination Valentine's Day and Anniversary - and I did get flowers but they were not expected or needed. It's the fun together that makes it.
