Heads Or Tails #77 - A Love Story


You can play this at Heads Or Tails!

*************

This week we are to talk about a time when love played a part in our lives.

With someone as old as seasoned as I am, you can imagine there has been more than once that love has touched my life. I was going to try to be all profound and maybe talk about my struggle with loving food too much. Or how I'm still working on loving myself. I decided instead to go with these people whose love has touched my life again and again.

My husband...


-----

My family...



-----

There have been friends.. Music and books.. Just to name a few.

But, with a new puppy in the house?


I would LOVE to have a good night's sleep.


I don't think a dozen talking watches will keep me
awake once I hit the bed tonight! (Smile.)

What a beautiful family you have Barb! Your puppy is adorable also! I hope you get some sleep, puppies can be so naughty at times can't they. They love waking us up in the middle of the night to play.

What a wonderful blog today Barb!!! But, I must say, you have to work hard at loving yourself...take each day -- look in the mirror -- say to yourself, I'm me, and I love me!!!

My H o T is quite different, but you let us have free reign and stretch the subject...I stretched and stretched this one.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Very nice. Sorry to have been so long away -- I explain why, sort of, today. And therein lies the one point which our posts today have in common.

Congrats on the new puppy! I'm so glad that you are surrounded by so much love - we should never underestimate it's power or take it for granted. Thanks as always for keeping up with this meme, I've sincerely enjoyed participating! Even when I don't feel well (:-))

You have a beautiful family. And not only does God have a sense of humor, so do you, and I love it! Don't forget, the puppy will soon be an old, lazy best friend and all it will want to do is sleep! There will be restful sleep in the near future. lol Your pup is adorable.
