So, for Valentine's day, I got:
2 cards from DS2, one he made at the childminder's with heart stickers and scribble, one at playgroup with a paper plate cut into the shape of a heart with more scribble;
A very peculiar rose, randomly, from the kids we met up with today (they didn't get their mum anything, the little buggers)- it's from Tesco, and every petal is a different colour (how do they do that???). It was the last one in the shop, apparently, and looks like it's been sat on. I'm hoping it was reduced;
A rather squishy text from Mr Anarchist, about which I was inordinately pleased, because when we first met he was giving it all the "tough, cynical and arrogant" (as was I, TBH), and I am starting to realise that this is, in fact, all a facade, and that we are both squishy, insecure little bunnies with more baggage than Terminal 5 between us.
There's a lot more to write about this, but my fingers would probably fall off. Suffice it to say that it's largely going well, I'm pretty smittened, as I think he is but in a different way, I'm feeling fairly optimistic, but it is in no way in the bag yet.
I would insert some kind of heart emoticon here for you all, but it appears MN has been remiss.
for you all instead xxx
