Valentine's Day guys..............

Went to the local flower shop for a dozen of them red smelly things cause nothing says I love you like roses right?

These nust have said it in several different languages........... 5 euro (about $8) each. Didn't take me long to adjust fire....... She ain't deaf yet so I figured 2 would say it loud enough. So I got 'em then ran home and cleaned the house and'll take her to dinner this evening. Still be cheaper than all them roses...............
 
I herd that! Valentine's Day is way big business. The local grocery store here puts up a big tent and stocks it with gifts and flowers. It's usually sold out by about 6 or 7 in the evening. Local restaurant ran out of steaks this weekend and all the B&Bs (30 or more)are all full up! I'm gonna cook tonight for my sweaty!
 
good move! any wife that would get up and go out in the cold to help you when you were stuck , cook all those good meals for you,make apple butter for you, you better get roses for her!

Your just as bad as she is when it comes to reminding me of them things............ But I ain't kissing you or sending you flowers............... :shock:
 
One way to economize is to place a single rose in among other inexpensive flowers along with the message similar to this:

You are like the rose, special, and you stand out from all of the others.

Ladies eat it up.

That only works if you can all of their friends' husbands and boyfriends (or girlfriends :shock: ) to do the same thing........
Could be pretty dangerous otherwise.............

Hey Louis, I think you may gain a couple points just calliing her sweetie instead of sweaty.

I usually look past spelling because mine's bad too, but I couldn't let this one go.

My wife is happy if I just tell her Happy Valentines day. We usually don't do anything special. We [i:f69e94f682]did[/i:f69e94f682] pick out cards at the grocery store after church yesterday. We each read the one chosen, then put it back in the rack..... makes us laugh every year. She says as long as I remember her birthday and Christmas, there will be no problems. She set those rules before we were married and I can live with them.

She's been known to get a handful of wildflowers, out of the blue, because I stopped and picked them though. (When it's warmer.)

No, Louis, the "sweaty" is supposed to happen later in the evening. . .

Good thoughts, though. My wife and I declared Valentines Day to be a Hallmark holiday many years ago, so we don't observe it. Also, we try to do something nice for our anniversary on the 12th, so combine the two. This year was our 40th, so we went to Hawaii. Nice duty.
 
I don't believe in that valentine BS.
One is supposed to apriciate their spouse every day,not just once a year.
My wife works in town,she can get the bloody roses herself if she wants them.
I pick her wild flowers in summer,that's as good as it gets and it relay's the same message
 
Downloaded some BB King and settin it right.

Here alone and relaxed.

Lets start a new holiday.

got any ideas
 
A few years ago on Valentine's Day, before I retired, I stopped at a little WalMart in Anna, Illinois to pick up the obligatory VD card. It was drizzling rain, and dark already, and when I got to the card rack, there were about six forlorn looking guys staring at ONE lonely card on the rack. I looked them over - they all seemed afraid to make the move, so I grabbed the card. When I looked at it, it had a big boot print right across the face of it. With a mirror image of the Red Wing logo. I said, "OH $hit!" In unison they exclaimed, "Yeah, Oh $hit!" I put the card back and headed for the door. I was 40 miles from home and there were at least two more chances on the way. I met my boss coming in as I was going out and asked him if he was after a card. He said, "Yep, I can't go home without one. . ."

Next morning he informed me that it had been a cold lonely night.

Another good one is to number lines of a paper and write out a poem, yours or other.

Cut the lines into strips and insert each into individual balloons. Using your TRACTOR air compressor air them up. Shop compressor is fine too, but I figured we should work tractor into this thread somewhere.

Once you have the balloons inflated with the message inside put them into the shower or tub that the missus uses. Make a note to pop the balloons for a message. She will need to use the numbers to sequence into the proper order. Cheaper than a purchased card or flowers and a whole lot better because it required effort.

Another is---if the bathroom mirror steams up clean the mirror well and then gently write a message on it, draw a heart with initials, or whatever. Then use a towel and gently, gently wipe it off just enough so that isn't visible.

Enough soap residue remains to prevent fogging that area so the message shows up when the rest of the mirror fogs over.
So many women, so little time.
 
I should have built a greenhouse and grown my own!!!$50 for half dozen here,I about fainted..but since she told me yesterday it was today, and said to not come home without something, i figure its cheaper in the long run!LOL.I have to admit though ,she probably deserves more for putting up with me for 40 yrs..
 
My wife thinks buying fresh cut flowers is throwing your money away. So all it cost me is a card, box of candy, and taking her out to eat.
 
My honey and I saw a movie once where the man bought his woman flowers and the card read -"Just because it's Wednesday". My husband has bought me flowers on other days than Valentine's Day with the card reading something "Just because it's ________". When I would get them at work, the girls were so jealous. And they didn't have to be roses. Roses are so expensive and you can buy a big, big bouquet with maybe a few roses (or not), but then a mix of other flowers or a spray of balloons or a bouquet of candy...
