HAPPY JOYOUS VALENTINE'S DAY TO EACH AND TO ALL!!
BUT ESPECIALLY TO MY VALENTINE .. PATTI ..
Patti Poo from Obladoo .. Roses are red and I love you!
The above photos were taken in my studio apartment here in the Sheung Wan District of Hong Kong by my visitor Jason ..
While Jason was shooting photos of me .. Eryn was sitting on the foot of the bed chit-chatting with her beloved Aunt Patti!
This is what I look like writing to YOU when I originate a letter or a post card from my apartment .. propped up against pillows on my bed.
NOW FOR THE REST OF THE STORY!!
I am at the Hong Kong Library Central Branch uploading photographs!
I am amazed and I am almost speechless that this is possible. All I did was to say to the library computer monitor ..
"I cannot upload photographs can I?"
"Sure you can!" he replied.
And (thank you so much for you life Mister Paul Harvey!) there you have ..
THE REST OF THE STORY ..
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!
Love from Cap ..
I have written this before and I will now repeat myself .. I feel like the luckiest man in the world. To YOU I give all the Thanks and all the Praise Oh God Of Abraham!

WOW!!! What a surprise this post is!!! A Valentine's Day message (THANK YOU), the message all in Valentine Red printing, pictures of YOU in your cozy apartment (THANK YOU JASON) and a picture of my beloved Eryn on the phone talking to me (she looks very happy...I was certainly very happy on the other end of this conversation). And, thank you again Cap for the Valentine flowers that arrived at my door this afternoon. Lots and lots of love and hugs. Patti
ReplyDeleteYou are so welcome My Dear One .. YOU ARE SO WELCOME! Chris McN sure played a vital part in making the flowers happen! KUDOS to Chris for sure!
DeleteIt was wonderful having Jason snapping away for me. It was too nice .. Jason was shooting me and I was shooting Eryn. What a gift the two of them were.
THANK YOU for your lovely Valentine's card .. Much Love ..
How thoughtful. Good on ya, Cap!
ReplyDeletePatti has TWO special dates in February. Valentine's and her Recovery Anniversary. Way back in January I wrote to Patti a card expressing congratulations on her recovery (15 years) anniversary. Then I read the card to her over the phone even though it was a full month before her anniversary date. Then I mailed the card. The card arrived early and in time and in good shape. All was well and all was swell.
DeleteAll was well and all was swell UNTIL Eryn and Jason arrived bringing a Valentine's card from Patti to me! I had 100% spaced out Valentine's Day. Not only could I NOT find a Valentine's card here in Hong Kong .. and I looked .. but it was far too late to get it to Patti on time.
Then my favorite saying erupted in my brain: I am only one .. but still I AM one .. I cannot do everything .. but still I CAN do something .. and because I cannot do everything I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.
What CAN I DO? I mused .. and the idea of flowers hit me with a thud up alongside of my head.
With the assistance of Chris McN a close ally of Patti .. we made the flowers happen. We and Bagoy's that is ..
I called Patti and asked her .. Which date is more important .. Valentine's or your Recovery Anniversary date .. you can ONLY pick one. With no hesitation she said my anniversary date. I said I have that covered in spades and NO Valentine's card is coming.
Much Joy ..
Way to go, Cap! There is nothing like flowers to express love. Thanks to Jason for capturing you at work.
ReplyDeleteThanks Shaddy .. see the above mini dissertation .. Yes thanks be to Jason .. Smiles ..
