of course i guess you could put the code inside the makeHeart() function
straight in the myTimerTrigger() function.
you could write it without the second argument in new Timer() and just restart
the timer every time it completes and use a variable to increment and check if
it has reached the desired count. this situation might be better if you need to
change "on the fly" how many it will make once the timer has started. i'm not
that up on timers, i tend not to use them much.
hope that solves it for you.
