Happy Valentine's Day

Let me be the first to wish all the clan HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

It's hard to believe it's already mid-February, 2008! Why, we're already 1/6th of the way through the year.
We had a good time Superbowl Sunday. Got to meet the fellow Katie has been dating - Tracy. He's a really nice guy. We were all disappointed in the result...how could the Patriots lose!? Oh, well, as I kept insisting all season, it's only a game!
Nevertheless, I was very sorry to have missed the family get-together on Sunday. Thanks for organizing the Christmas gift exchange (Mary Fowler was instrumental I hear - lol).
We feel lucky not to have been affected by the severe winds of yesterday. Friends and co-workers have experienced damage to houses, and power outages. No one affected by the brush/electrical fires, but one of the gals at the office could see the fire at Hollins "too close for comfort" from her back deck. Hope none of you had any damage or problems.
Finally, here's a little toast to share with your Valentine:
May we never forget what is worth remembering or remember what is best forgotten.
