This is looking so good, keep up with it!

Never mind about having Valentine's Day tomorrow - I am not having it at all :lol: - not only because I am all alone, but it is not something we celebrate too much here. Anyway, love and care should be there every day, ad not only on one special day - this is my view.

As for not feeling really happy - you can come here and let the steam off if you like, as you see we are all a big family and help each other in everything, not only cross stitch. I would have never got over my divorce and all the related problems if not this forum! :hug:

I'm with Agi. I fail to see the point of Valentines day. Peeople should show they care all year through and not just because hallmark tells them they have to. And I think it's kinda silly how people fall over themselves trying to proove they care. They should already have shown you, you should already know. If not...why are you even together?

I refuse to celebrate, for that reason. That and they use Cupid who...well...before they romantisized mythology did not represent romantic love...He was the Roman version of Eros...the clue is in the name. But then, I'm the irritating one correcting the spelling of Herakles or informing you that Hercules was not the son of Zeus but of Jupiter. Hercules being the Roman version, Herakles being the greek.

You've done amazing work on your project by the way!

I am sorry your guy had to work for valentines day. It is nice of him to offer to celebrate on a different day instead of using his working as an excuse to get out of it compeletly. When my hubby and I were dating we had a few holidays that we had to "postpone" until the next day to celebrate...to me they always seemed a bit better..b/c there wasn't so much pressure on making it "perfect"

I hope you enjoy your celebration with him!! great progress on your work and congrats on the cranium game when I am very competitive at times and know how great a good win can make you feel!

I've sort of been slowly going along on this... Just kinda been sick constantly. Here's the latest update.

Never really used the gallery img code before, so I guess you have to click on it to see it full size.
