~A LOVE AFFAIR~

The trees sway as the cold wind blows...January's bleakness remains...the day brings snow and sleet... 
Ladies... if I were to have an actual  affair...being that Mr. Dog Trot was not in the picture...Robert Redford would be the man of my dreams...In fact, call me crazy, I recently  created a board of Mr. Redford on Pinterest...yes he has aged, but haven't we all...I look beyond wrinkles...Now, I blame my love affair with Russell, Russell Stover that is, to the never ending inclement weather...those happy endorphins which one acquires from a brisk  walk  can also be found in a Russell Stover candy box... chewy dark chocolate... such a satisfying delight...and if you have self control, unlike me, no harm is done...but... if  this love affair continues much longer, I will morph into the shape of a pickle barrel...Speaking of a pickle barrel I recently watched a television program called "My 600 Pound Life"...Let me tell you I  yanked my hand out of that candy box, threw it's cover on, and have not looked back...

A weekly flower bouquet is to be my indulgence...
and if my home should begin to resemble a florist shop you'll understand why...

Love this post! Agree completely on all of it. I love the flower idea instead of chocolate. I will be doing that myself. Thanks! Blessings.

My comment was this. You are so funny Julie. I needed that to brighten my gloomy day.
Enjoy your chocolate. and I'm adding:
It's January..... eat the rest of that chocolate and celebrate that January is almost gone.
Hugs,
JB
