Are you feeling better? Sending you a hug!

Hi, Gloria,
sniff, sniff. What a beautiful post. Love the wedding pic of you and Wally. I lost my husband in 2005, and I miss him every day.

Thanks for your comment and trying to follow my blog. The follow list is sure visible to me on my computer so I'm sorry you aren't seeing it. Not sure what to think. Love this post of yours, and really enjoyed the hat post!
Oh what a sweet post of you and your love. Your collection is so pretty. What a wonderful man Wally must have been - you made quite a handsome pair.
A beautiful post. Enjoyed it tremendously. Have a blessed day and weekend.
Aw Gloria... this was so very sweet, but so bittersweet. The pictures of you and Wally were fantastic. I especially love the Mickey ears!
Justine :o )
Oh, this is just my favorite post of all. I love the petty tablescape and your wedding picture is just the best. You are so beautiful and such a handsome couple. Love it. Hugs, Marty
How sweet your post is. I can see the love you two have found. Have a great day!
What a sweet and wonderful tribute to your Wally! I can tell that you two shared a special love.
On another note, that was a funny poem about the candy! Funny, but true!
Mornin' Sis...
My sweet friend, you sure know how to make a girl cry! Your Valentine's vignette and poem to Wally is so endearing!!! I could feel your love in each and every word! Shoot...I'm just sitting here staring at the screen...speechless! You know that I love you, Sis!!! I'm so thankful that the Lord gave you Wally and that the two of you had that "once in a lifetime" kind of love! You know...some go through this life and never experience that! Okay...I'm moving on before I start crying again!
Well Darlin', your vignette is gorgeous...so soft and romantic! I love, love, LOVE that beautiful fringed table covering!!! You know, ever since I seen yours and Lynne's...I've been looking for one on ebay and haven't found one! Boohoo! I just love it!!! I love your pretty dove figurines too...sooo beautiful! Okay...on a lighter note! I just giggled when I read what you wrote about the chocolate adding inches to your hips!!! Girl, you crack me up!!! And...if anyone's hips could stand a few inches...it would be yours! Hehe!!! You thin and trim thing..you!!! WHATEVER!!!
Well Sis...sending all my love and prayers your way! Feel better, Darlin'!!!
Love you,
Chari
PS...just lil' ol' me again! I was just reading Phyllis' comment and totally agree! Please don't say your antiques and antique posts are boring!!! You have so much to be proud of, Sis!!! You've worked hard for all your fabulous pieces!!! They are NOT boring!!! Love you, Sweetie!!!
Chari

Happy hearts day!
Sweet post and tribute! Love lives beyond life itself. Take care, Sally
This was so lovely and I could feel how it came straight from your heart. Love that 70's hair...I just missed the "teased" style and the goal was to have it perfectly straight!
This was a wonderful post, full of love.
Sue
You have such a way of melting hearts, Gloria! What a lovely tribute to Wally and your love. I love seeing your home on your blog header, it's so lovely...

Hi Sweet Gloria!
You have created such beautiful romance with this wonderful post! Thank you for sharing such a sweet part of your heart with us.
I love the miniature hats & boxes on your previous post. I had no idea that the practice ever existed with hats. And what a great collection you have.
Happy Valentine's Day!
Hugs, Sherry
What a beautiful post to Wally who is sitting on your shoulder and thinking the same sweet thing. I enjoyed seeing your wedding photo. Happy Valentine's day to you and your family and friends.

Mornin' Sis...
Just coming by to say good morning and see how you're doing today? This cold crud really has me feeling bad...but I'll survive as long as it doesn't get any worse. Not getting a thing done but sitting here with my blogs! Hehe! Anyway...just thinking about you, Sweetie!!!
Love ya,
Chari
Hello Dear Gloria,
What a beautiful and sentimental post... I can feel the love pouring out in every word and photo. I Love all your wonderful Victorian displays, and antiques too, never boring!
Thanks sooo much for stopping by for a visit I always LOVE hearing from you!
Take care dear friend,
Sherri:)
What a beautiful tribute to your everlasting love. I love your wedding picture, the joy on your face is priceless. Thanks for sharing such a beautiful post. Hugs, Kat
He sounds like he was a great guy. Such a sweet post and gorgeous pictures!
Manuela
What a handsome man Wally was. We certainly married good looking men, didn't we? Neither of us will ever be completely over them...and that's alright.
It doesn't mean we don' love our precious mates of today..or appreciate them..
Our days of Wally and Patrick are just burned into our memories and in our hearts. I see Patrick everywhere and think of him every single day. I talk to him often. think I hear his voice or laughter. Especially his laugh.
However, we were brave enough to go on and live.
Happy Valentines Day to you, Gloria. I love you, my friend.
If you ever decide to come this way, please do come and visit. I have a nice little guest room. Nothing fancy but it is comfortable and has a new mattress. :)
I hope you are alright.
I will write. Soon.
Hugs,
Mona
Loved the photos of you and Wally, Gloria. It was an amazing love story you told me about that day we talked on the phone.
Happy Valentine's Day,
Dawn
Thanks so much for coming by and I hope you have a sweet sweet Valentine's Day. ~ Lynn @ thevintagenest

Love you...
