David’s Valentine’s Day present. Toto toilet with a walnut seat.
David is really the only person who uses the downstairs half bath. I decided it was time for him to get an upgrade!
Happy Valentine’s Day
Roses are red, violets are blue
I woke up happy today. Things might not always go my way but I am always grateful for my husband, family, friends and our little Los Angeles bungalow.
I wish you a heartfelt Happy Valentine’s Day.

Schoolhouse Electric Co. is generously giving a light fixture and shade to the winner. Second prize is a $75 Home Depot gift card and third prize is a $50 Home Depot gift card.
