Hallmark Day

[OhioWhiteTails]

Alright fellas, what are you doing for that significant other today? Flowers? Cooking Dinner? D in a box? Absolutely nothing?
I hate hallmark holidays, but I do try to show some appreciation to the wife for putting up with my shit. She claims it doesn't matter to her, but I know better. She likes to be spoiled from time to time. I sent flowers, chocolates, and a balloon to her office. I know the ladies she works with all gaggle over that dumb shit. I'm making venison fajita's for dinner, per request from my daughters and wife. Hopefully get the kids to bed early tonight.....

Just got back to work, stepped out for a few, ran to the florist, got her a single rose and hand delivered it to her office. She likes getting flowers, but also thinks its pointless b/c they die. So she would rather just get 1. So thats what I did. I dont know why but I was nervous as a teen asking a girl to prom while I was walking into her office. LOL. Its worth it. She puts up with a lot of shit. Other than that, Ill be out drinking beer tonight. Her and her friend Kara made reservations at White Castle. LOL

Doing nothing. Wife birthday on 2/11. She already got her birthday dinner and birthentines day flowers. Hallmark can keep their cards.

Joy is a fan of Daiseys. Got her 2 dozen and a package of tripple chocolate muffins.

We both try and stay out of the Hallmark scam as much as possible. It’s literally outrageous what cards go for these days. Originality is used up as well and they add more and more days in which to guilt people to use their products to send or give others. We show each other ho much we love and care for each other everyday, that says more, IMO

Nothing as usual. I did wish her a Happy Vday before I left for work at 6. I'll see my kids tonight when I get home and they'll get the same. We try to be a simple family.

I think we have skipped this holiday for several years. We always agree to not participate, and its been that way since we got married. We always do a little something for the kids though. This year for some reason, I decided to surprise her.

Card and candy and some swear words driving to the store to buy them. I hate Hallmark Days (VD) and Sweetest Day to boot!!!

 

[Riverdude]

Well the South, West and East have it figured out regarding Sweetest Day.

My wife dressed the girls as angels and sent me a pic...also found a note with some cookies in my lunchbox from “the girls”. On the way home I’ll get a card, a box of chocolate covered pretzels, a bouquet of wildflowers and a couple balloons. I’m sure the wife went to Applebee’s or someplace like that and will have dinner waiting. My wife makes a big deal about holidays and birthdays...so I do what makes her happy and hunting season she’ll let me do what makes me happy.

This is the day we started dating, so it means a lot to me. Happens to be 30 years this year so far got a print of the night sky on the day we started dating 30 years ago.

My wife's birthday is 2/1, so we don't make a big deal of it. The only reason she started getting cards and candy again was because I became a father to 2 daughters and I hook them up for Valentine's Day. I brought home a really nice orchid last night to go with the card and sweet treat. That'll suffice this year!

Congrats Clay!

The gf hates these holidays, so we don't do shit! There is a bottle of wine chilling in the fridge, but that's a regular thing anyway.

We didn’t do anything special as it should be done everyday right? Wife is cooking ribeye and lobster tails this evening. Will submit a pic in the dinner thread later

Threw a bag of chips and dip on the counter when I walked through the door. Going outside to pick up from the ice storm......that'll be enough

30 years is a long time to be dating....are you going to propose anytime soon? “Why buy the cow...when you get the milk for free.”

I’m giving her a night Away from me. Couldn’t imagine it being any better then that! I also sent her a pic of tripledueces balls. I’m sure she feels extra special.

This weekend is my youngest birthday, so we will just skip this year. I made her a deal a couple of weeks ago to bring flowers home every week I’m away, so that should do.
