Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day to all of you.

I came down this morning to find this cute little Valentine on my desk.  Thank you, Gene!

It is always fun to see what animal will greet me on special days.  It started, as I recall, with Gene seeing some really pitiful little animal  that no one else would buy.  It was so ugly that it was cute and he bought it for me.  This morning, I was especially surprised to see a cup!  This one has a cup that might fit on a cup warmer that connects to the computer.  I will check it out as soon as I finish this.  Otherwise, Gene would not add to my mug collection.  I have so many that some are just put away in a box.  I have to rotate the cups in the cupboard so I can use about 30 or so of my favorites.  Well, you get the idea, I haver a few mugs.

A sock monkey! Very cute! Who knew Gene was so romantic?

Joanna, he is cute and the cup fits on the warmer that hooks to the computer. Seems to at least keep the cup warm. :)

Bag Blog, I had never seen a sock monkey with all stripes. Fun!

Regina, your remark gave Gene a chuckle. :-)
