February 13 Playlist!

After 34 years of marriage, my folks are still together and still love each other. They also know each other well. My dad texted me before 6:00 to request a song to send out to my mom, his "main squeeze." She knew exactly what song it was - Bob Dylan's "Maggie's Farm" (my mom's name is Margaret). It made me smile and a little sentimental. Very inspiring. Here is today's kind of V-day playlist with a playlist at the bottom:
