I know it’s not actually Valentine’s yet, but the husband has a big test coming up and we can’t celebrate tomorrow.  Plus we saw the namesake movie today!  I’m not 100% yet but I am feeling better.  I skipped Friday’s post because the day pretty much consisted of clear sodas and my Chemistry test.

Adam was at his preceptor’s office all morning and I was curled up on the couch in all my unshowered glory so imagine my surprise when he walked in the door with this –

Seriously, how handsome is my husband??

I will NOT be posting a picture to explain why loving me makes him a saint but let’s just say it’s a good thing I showered finally before we left the house!

We are not big Valentine’s people but the husband did bring me home flowers and Sour Patch Kids.

After giving the husband plenty of air kisses (my germs and his upcoming test cannot mix!) I managed to do a bit of cleaning and make a grocery list AND take that shower.  I powered through my chores with a protein-packed smoothie for breakfast/lunch.

2 frozen bananas + 1.5T pb +1/2cup skim milk.

Then around 2:30 we were off to the mall for our date!  I’m pretty sick but I did the best with what I had.

The amazing necklace my mommy made me at least got me on theme. 

Sadly, the movie theatre was beyond packed and things kept getting pushed back.  We ended up going to Jack Astor’s for a bit.  I had a Blue Lemonade.

And we split a plate of buffalo chicken fingers.

Then we played some arcade games!

In the movie I ate my Sour Patch Kids and we split a large Coke Zero and some pretzel bites.

Mmmn.  Our movie was less cheesy than our snack, Valentine’s Day was actually really funny and awesome.  It’s like an American Love Actually but a whole lot funnier.

Now I’ve got an easy dinner planned (homemade for a change!) and I’m planning on heading to bed earlyish.  See you in a bit!

What you do think about Valentine’s Day?  Love it or hate it?  I’ve never minded <3’s day, even when single, because I find all the theme candy pretty exciting.  However, Adam and I never make too big of a deal of it.  We just aren’t that gushy, we often don’t even do Christmas or birthday gifts.
