Valentines Day is coming up.

Call the florist or whatever. Or you're going to be in trouble. Ask me how I know.

I'm covered this year. I already bought my sweetie a Tiffany bracelet. That should keep her quiet.

It better. It cost enough.

Re: Valentines Day is coming up.

Your so romantic.

My birthday is the 14th, so you can buy me something too.

Jewelry, flowers, and purses. Are the only 4 play that really works.

Re: Valentines Day is coming up.

I take a double whammy on Valentines Day! We have been married 30 years this one. I got her some candy but she told me the money we have spent this winter remodeling the Kitchen and Bath plus the new floor tile in the house is enough of a Anniversary Gift.

Re: Valentines Day is coming up.

Candy is a no go with my wife.

Probably because I'll eat it all.

And I'm not all that romantic. I'm just trying not to get divorced again. That's a lot more expensive.

I think it would be a good investment for you to hire FleetsidePaul for marriage counseling.

Re: Valentines Day is coming up.

I'll be buying some new parts for my truck when I get paid on Friday. I guess there's one nice thing about being single

Re: Valentines Day is coming up.

I built and put up 1.7 gates. Both are built, but not completely installed- I was working on that today. Our 39th anniversary is Friday. My wife got home from work today and told me that I bought her some tulips for our anniversary. I actually did buy them last year.

Re: Valentines Day is coming up.

My wife and I have been married 40 years this coming June and both believe that Valentines day is too commercialized. We do things for our Grandkids now.

I'm the last person in the world to give marital advice. But I do know a good lawyer. I paid for his swimming pool. A couple of times.

Then it turned into an artist commissioned necklace...and now I'm getting her a membership at a golf course. What do I get? I get to pay the bill after taking her out to dinner and drinks Happy wife...hap. Oh, never mind!

Re: Valentines Day is coming up.

I asked my wife what she wanted for valentines day and she said a new pair of breathable waders for spring fishing. Who am I to deny her such a want?

She's getting some new waders tomorrow and we will start planning some fishing trips soon as well. It's the gift that keeps on giving you know?

Re: Valentines Day is coming up.

We've been together for 17 years, we're down to flowers, card, and dinner and she's happy. We're not even going out friday night. All the good restaurants are booked and they throw everything together to get you out as fast as possible. We're going to go to dinner Saturday night instead.

Re: Valentines Day is coming up.

I've been with Mrs Grumpy going on 16 years and she's on vacation all next week ( Oh yeah she gets 8 weeks a year lucky me ) So it looks like I'll have plenty of time (to hide) in the shop , No dinner date for valentines day No flowers , No box of candy , I might wash her truck if the weathers nice. Yep She's 63 and still would rather drive a short bed truck . I guess that's why she sticks around . Free mechanic services

Re: Valentines Day is coming up.

Wifey and I have been together since 1988. Probably gonna go out to her favorite restaurant tomorrow night for steaks or shrimp n grits. I've already bought a big rich chocolate cake with lots of coffee icing from a lady I work with who's raising money for her church. She's delivering it to me tomorrow afternoon. That'll go over well!!!!!!

Here's me and Mama this past Christmas Eve. She's a pretty good old gal......I think I'll keep her.
