Just because, my wife often gives me cards with personal notes on the inside. I do sometimes as well get her special cards. But I am more likely when out and about to stop and pick up flowers. The orange fall color flowers caught my eye in the store the other day, so just because. The Vase was a wedding gift for Barb and me from a dear friend and has moved with us (Carefully) for many years. There is something about having flowers on the table, although we probably eat at the table roughly four times a week. Well, eat at the table as a family. When the kids were little, we ate at the table more often than we do now. Now we often watch the news and catch up in the living room as we eat dinner.
Funny how things change over time!
Anyone can join the photo challenge. Take a picture of a lovely flower and share today!
How thoughtful of you and you used a special vase. Those are great ideas Doc.
I know your wife loved the special blooms. They are gorgeous.
She is very funny – she loves flowers. But when it comes to gifts she always prefers practical.
I am the same way. That is a good thing for you.
Sometimes I have to go the romantic gift route. It comes from my dad who was a hopeless romantic.
Just thinking; because there are some flowers, your family still occasionally eats at the dining table even though more often in the living room. If there is no flower, maybe your family will always eat in the living room, and likewise, if the whole dining table is filled with flowers. lol
I suppose that is possible. My wife is the one that loves flowers so she eats at the table until the flowers wilt!
She is a true flower lover
flowers she loves, me she tolerates!
Hahahahaha…
I am analyzing whether this is the way you share your feelings or… hopefully just jokes.
It is a joke. After 27 years she is my best friend and the one person that always tells me when I am wrong!
Hopefully she doesn’t collect it all in special memory albums
I would say no, but I have to be honest. The special memory albums come out to play when she is really angry!
That’s Zen about black and white as a twin.
It is the yin and yang of a relationship. There are hot spots that exist between people. Sometimes all you can do is stand and accept the anger.
Beautiful photo! Nice flowers! I like it.
Thanks – they caught my eye in the store!
