<a href="http://www.diaryofalatebloomer.com/2013/01/21/can-you-come-out-and-play/" target="_blank"><strong>In my last post,</strong></a> I mentioned that I was on a blogcation.  It's been swell.  Really.  You wouldn't believe what's happened.

&nbsp;

I will give you a hint:

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

<span style="font-size: xx-large; color: #ff0000;">♥</span>

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Sigh . . . .

&nbsp;

And that's all I can say.

&nbsp;

Because it's taken him 25 years to get here (if we think back to . . . say . . . when I was legal at 18), and I wouldn't want to scare him off with my meanderings in a blog.  There are some things in life that are sacred, you know.  Thank you for your understanding.

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

<span style="font-size: medium; color: #800000;"><strong>Now let's all hold hands, jump up and down and scream like schoolgirls because this recent ♥ development is SO EXCITING!!!!  ☺</strong></span>

&nbsp;

&nbsp;

In other news, ch-ch-changes are still brewing behind the scenes at Diary of a Late Bloomer.  In the midst of my blog remodeling, I've decided to send you postcards from my blogcation.  Because who doesn't love receiving postcards?  And you're going to melt at this first postcard.  Tell me if this isn't the cutest thing you've ever seen???

&nbsp;

That's right.  Bella uses the couch as a springboard to leap up onto the massage table when Melody aka World's Greatest Massage Therapist^ isn't looking.  What can I say?  The canine apple doesn't fall far from the tree.  Who can blame her?

&nbsp;

More postcards to come in future days. . . .
