Unexpected, positive, change in plans!

So, it is Valentines Day.

I'll be honest...it is one of my least favorite holidays on the calendar.  I, personally, think it is a halmark holiday.  I honestly feel like "you shouldn't need a holiday to express your feelings to me...you should be showing this to me throughout the year."  And I was not planning on writing any sort of a blog today...I'm single. I don't have any fun, lovey-dovey story to share with you today.

With that being said, I had every expectation to spend the evening alone.  I was going to pick up food from a local diner, come home, relax, and enjoy my evening to myself.

That changed when I missed a phone call from my best friend during the middle of the day.  She was going to be coming to town today, and wanted to know if I wanted to get together for dinner.  OF COURSE, YES!!!!

My parents had dinner plans out tonight, so I had the house to myself (yup...I still live at home.)  We decided that I would pick up food from the little diner in town, and then we would meet back at my house for dinner!

Can I just say, that this was one of the best Valentines Days I have had?!?  It was so amazing to get together with my best friend, Rae, (and her little boy) and just have uninterrupted time together!  It was exactly what we needed!  (Our lives are so hectic, and we work opposite shifts...so time together is precious!)

This is one of the best ways I could have possibly spent my "holiday" evening!  I am so very happy for that phone call that changed my evening plans!!
