Today has been one of the more interesting Valentines days.
I had taken a few days off this week so that I can help my wife with her dissertation. On Monday, I still went into work to catch up with paperwork anyway, but my wife did not need me then. My next day off was Thursday and while I did not help that much initially, I did have to proof read later in the day.
Our children were expecting us to have been arguing by the time they got back from school, but we were fine. The arguments did not start till later. And they continued until we finished, which was about 0230, Friday morning. We had to wake at 0630 to put the bins out, and while my wife made some final amendments I went back to bed.
I woke again after the kids had gone to bed for I was to have a haircut and my wife and I met at GreyFriars in Colchester for our Valentines lunch. It was great to spend the time together and the food was amazing, back to the standards that it was when it had opened.
Sadly, I went back to sleep again when we got home for I was to be a taxi service later. My daughter had a party to go to and I was to drive her the thirty minutes to Groton in Suffolk for the party that she has been invited to. On the way, we noted that we were driving in a convoy as several cars were making the same journey, though one took a wrong turn at the last moment. We all went with her there, but I am to collect her in a moment.
