I love getting flowers for no reason. Even if they do die too quickly.

Well, there was a reason actually. I got to choose between "Congratulations on getting a job offer you didn't accept" or "Sorry I forgot to put windshield wiper fluid in the car".
I am home today. Awaiting a new piece for our furnace, trying to accomplish a few work deadlines. And listening to Neko Case. It's foggy and way too warm for January today. But it's Friday. So who cares!?

    Thank you Jeanne!

    Well, Pat, then be inspired by Mr.C and go buy your sweetheart some roses :)

    You too, Angel, Jr.

    Chloe;
    You would love Neko Case. Google her and listen to "Hold on, hold on" I dedicate it to you.

    The best time for getting flowers IS for no reason at all.

    I love getting flowers too but as you said, they just don't last long enough, especially with the cost of them! Isn't this weather unbelievable?? I've never seen a winter like this...usually in January we have 2 feet of snow on the ground and the snowblowers are being overworked!! It rained here today and whatever sprinkling of snow we had last weekend is all gone again. Have a wonderful relaxing weekend dear Cathy!! xox

    I used to think you have to wait to receive flowers...no way...I go and buy them for myself. As I am puting them in the vase I declare the day, "happy".

    Hugs,
    Connie

    Beautiful :)

    Have a great " soggy " weekend.

    Cathy is this weather unreal? Plus 10 /rain. No snow.

    I like so few female singers (voices to precious and baby-doll like with so many of them these days) but I LOVE Neko Case. She's got that creepy thing I dig going on & is going on my next podcast if the song ends up fitting :)

    Do you have any of her older stuff? I think Blacklisted might be my favorite older one.

    ...oops, meant "too" precious. I hate it when I make grammar-type typos.

    You deserve flowers every day :)

    Happy weekend, Cathy!

    It's 58 F here in New York as I type this. Everyone outside has lauded how great and warm it's been the past few days, but it's odd how no one realizes it's January.

    I think deep down, many people want to have global warming.

    You are also a Canadian I wouldn't mind owning ; And I mean that in the nicest "no reason at all"-sort of way. Actually, I seem to have a thing about Canadians, but I won't go into that here...

    Flowers don't tend to move me very much, but having a slow day to listen to Neko Case sounds like a good Friday.
    Happy weekend.
