About Valentine's Day...

[GeorgiaXplant]

Did you or do you attach importance to giving/receiving a gift of some kind, even just a token, for Valentine's Day?

DH and I were married on Valentine's Day...he chose the date...and he was a romantic and sentimental kinda guy, so he always gave me a Valentine and an anniversary gift. He loved "occasions"!

The first year we were married, he gave me two diamond rings. We had an enclosed carport so I gave him a garage door, et voila! we had the garage that he wished for. That was his anniversary gift. His Valentine gift was a band saw...something else he wanted.

He was a computer geek so after that first year I almost always gave him some sort of accessory for his desktop/laptop/cell phone, whatever was the newest thing. I miss not being able to surprise him with the latest new electronic toy because he got such a kick out of them

You forgot jewelers. DH spent a lot of perfectly good money on perfectly good diamonds for me

It's just another day for us, maybe I'll make a heart shaped meatloaf, nothing says I love you like a meatloaf!

Another day for us too, I told hubby a long time ago that he didn't have to give me anything....just another hyped up holiday in my eyes, money makers for the stores. Georgia, cool that it's your anniversary though!

I'm buying my girlfriend a big box of candy and a jug of Clearasil. She breaks out in zits if she devours too many sweets.

She's only 16. Hope she grows out of it.

Falcon, do they still use Clearasil?

 

[Vivjen]

Course they do, Ina.
