2013 Valentines Day was better than I expected. I am sure you are dying to know why. Well here’s the story………
2013 Valentines Day began with Sun Salutations Yoga. I have been performing all the bendy and twisty moves, well as much as my inflexible overweight body can stand for about 2 weeks now. I have been really enjoying it and actually feeling stronger.
Awesome Yoga App
I have been really getting into my workouts lately and I’m so proud of myself. In my opinion doing yoga is like loving myself. As a matter of fact at the end of each session when I am lying in corpse pose I am repeating in my mind mantras of love. Honestly…
This is Yoga.
This handsome gentleman was my driver the whole time I was in Bali. He became my friend as well. His nickname is Yoga. I asked him why his friends called him that. He said simply because he loved to meditate.
I asked him how he meditated. He said he mostly thought about love. Not as in relationships, but basically a way of life. So now when I perform my yoga meditation I focus on love as well. Isn’t that a beautiful way to meditate. So doing yoga is a way for me to surround myself with love.
My flowers & I.
During our boring morning meeting my boss calls all the ladies to the front of the room. He presented each of us with a huge bouquet of flowers. I was surprised although I should not of been. You know I am the one that gave them the money to purchase the flowers, with company funds of course. Sometimes I am such a chicken head.
That was a great way to start 2013 Valentines Day Off. I really was not expecting anything. I’m not seeing or interested in anyone at this time. That’s right gentlemen.
This lady is super single. 
I found this at my desk.
OK, I was really surprised when I found this. OH Whee…. Is it what I think? Hell Yeah!
-
- This little box is heavy.
-
- I almost didn’t want to open. It’s so pretty.
-
- Oh Yeah! I’m not sharing with nobody.
Ok, I’m trying to drop some pounds, but I don’t want to pass up any sweets. Miguel was the person that left them. If you have been following my blog, you know he is my Bestie right now. I gave him a big ole hug. He has such a kind heart.
Not my cake.
Not my cake, but it sure was pretty. One of the guys received this from his honey. So 2013 Valentines day was not a bust after all. It actually was not bad.
I was going to post something different, but was sort of inspired by a The Daily Post. The challenge…..Daily Prompt: Cupid’s Arrow. Here are some other readers who took on the challenge as well. Check them out:

2013 Valentines Day Question:
What do you think about Valentines Day?
Did something unexpected happen for you on this day of love?
Hi Liz, I am not really a fan of the commercialisation of Valentine’s Day. That said I got a little something for the kids and theCyclist and need up sharing his sweet treat with him although it is Feb and we are trying to be good:) Glad you had a good Valentines, I would not have said no to those choccies either.
I’m with you on the commercialism. Seems like all the holidays are like that now days. It is hard to dumb them down so to speak because people really fall for what they believe society tells them they need to do. OH well, sometimes you just have to go with flow. Thanks for commenting Robyn.

Yay, glad you had a good Valentine’s Day. Mine was pretty good – complete with a wonderful lunchtime yoga class
I thought I was going to be crabby today seeing everyone get flowers and whatnot, but it didn’t bother me. Baby steps 
I usually have a crabby Valentines Day also, but this one was ok. I really like yoga. It’s so relaxing.

Aw! Happy Valentines Day
The chocolates are so cute. Go Miguel. I love that you thought about love when you did yoga. It’s way too easy to forget to love ourselves and others just for being who they are.

Ain’t that the truth sister.
I hope your day was as good or better than mine. I have to swing by your blog.
