Randomness on a Tuesday

 Good Morning All! Hope everyone is having a wonderful Tuesday. This will be a very random post so my apologies but sometimes these posts are the most fun to write.

First we had some visitors stop by our pool the other day. A female and male duck appear every spring to take a dip, splash around and say hi to the dogs. You can only see the male in this picture but soon after I took this another male duck swooped in and there was a bit of a love triangle going on and the female flew away with male duck #2 to leave this little guy all alone. I know how you feel bro!

A friend of my Roomies dropped by a couple of weeks ago as he was in town for business and brought over this AMAZING rum called Kraken. It's spiced and sweet so if you don't like that type rum you will probably not enjoy this; I however LOVED it. I actually drank it straight over ice which I never do; it was that good.

For those of you wondering what a Kraken is, it's basically a huge mythical Octopus.

Very cool display of the Kraken Rum.

Valentine's Day for couples only????

I was having a conversation today with a co-worker (who is married) and I asked if she was having a good Valentine's Day so far. I expected her to say that she received some roses, chocolate or that she was being taken out for dinner. But what she said is that this is a day that isn't just for couples to appreciate their love for each other, that it should be a day where we appreciate everyone who we love in our lives. And I totally AGREE! Plus that makes this dreadful day all the less ostracizing for us single people of the world. So if you are single and feeling lonely today or you can't be with the one you love, turn your attitude around and think of today as a day to appreciate anyone that you love. Whether it be your Mom, your child, your friend or your pet; tell someone today that you love them....It's better than crying into a tub of Ben & Jerry's!!!!

Hope this has made someone smile today and if you really do NEED a Valentine, I can be your Virtual Valentine!
