Here we are in February and my motto is – “embrace the love”! Whether you have a significant other or not, you can still spread love and appreciation along with the other thing I consider vital – chocolate! Why not wear red, sport some pink, hang up some hearts and hand out some Valentines? It beats sitting around surrounded by winter’s drab days waiting for brighter ones. Brighten them up yourself!
I’m doing my part. Let’s take a look at February’s First Friday Freebie.
We do life with so many others – our close-knit immediate family, our extended family, those coming in and out of our home and those we meet out and about. This weathered wood sign with its riveted metal plate declares, “I love doing life with you!” It measures 7” wide and 10” high. It’s a little bit of modern on a little bit of shabby and neutral to go with any décor. You certainly won’t have to take it down after Valentine’s Day. Its twine rope allows you to hang just about anywhere. I hope you enjoy this great Hobby Lobby find.
To enter to win the “love doing life” décor, all you need to do is “Leave a Comment” on this post, saying, “I love doing life with _______” (and fill in the blank with someone special). It could be your sweetie, your grandchild or your pet – just drop in that special name. Of course, I love doing life with Smuffy. You’ll need to leave your comment before midnight TONIGHT, February 3rd, 2023.
NOTE: An occasional problem occurs with subscribers not receiving confirmation emails. Should this happen, email me at barb@midweststoryteller.com so that I can report it and have the issue resolved.
If you are new to Midwest Storyteller and haven’t subscribed, you’ll need to do that before entering to win. Head to the right sidebar or use the menu to navigate to the “Contact” page where you can fill in your email address and then watch for your confirmation email.
No one will get to enjoy all the great things here on the blog unless you share it with your friends and family through all your social media, so if you like an idea, recipe or story you see here, be sure to share and if you save things on Pinterest like I do, hover over the photo and “pin it”. Help me get the word out!
On the “Freebies” page, you can see what readers have been winning every month.
A winner will be chosen at random from those subscribers who enter before midnight tonight, February 3rd, by leaving a comment which says, “I love doing life with _______” and insert that special name or nickname.

Spread a few hearts and flowers over the next couple of weeks and make the ones you love or appreciate feel special. It serves to heal the soul when people know they’re not forgotten. Soon we’ll be moving on into spring and have fresh reasons to rejoice. For now, let’s melt the winter blahs by warming as many hearts as we can.
I’m tweaking a great recipe to share and will hopefully have it posted here soon to help you make 2023 trim, healthy and simple.
Speaking of love, my “Life With Smuffy” and my “Laugh” pages are all about people I love and sharing those with someone will fill their lives with joy and laughter.
