Valentine's Day
Before I begin my rant on Valentine's day I would like to shout a big THANK you to A, K & B for the cutest card .. it made me laugh .. thank you thank you thank you~!
HATE IT .. yep you read it right .. HATE HATE HATE Valentines Day .. it's such a silly day .. I think that if someone loves you and wants to show you ...they just should .. on any old day ..WHY do they need a "special" day to do so??
People often ask WHY I hate this day ... well here are a few reasons ...
It's not because I'm single (cause I'm married) and it's not because my husband forgets V-day every year or that he doesn't get me a card or some kind of gift (cause he always remembers the day and always gets me something) It's because ...
I can't stand to go out for dinner on V-day .. all you see is those lovey dovey couples .. you know the ones .. they have been together for like 2 days and they are SOOOOO in love ...they sit there holding hands, looking deep into each others eyes ... ! PUKE!
The roses cost 18 times more on V-day then they do on Feb 13th or 15th or on any other day for that matter!
Chocolates .. love them .. but does my fat a** need more chocolate?
Can't stand the questions "what are you doing for "lovers" day?" OR "What are you getting your husband (boyfriend) for V-day?" My reply NOTHING .. it's a plain silly silly day .. I would say the word "stupid" day but that's a time-out word in our house and I'm trying really hard not to use it!
Now don't get me wrong I LOVE to be treated like a queen, cooked for, catered to, showered with gift, dripping in new jewels etc..etc.. but please NOT on this day! Again if someone were to buy me all this and treat me this way I wouldn't turn it down .. it just wouldn't be appreciated as much since it's on heart day!
I also think of all the little kids handing out the cute little valentine's cards .. BUT what about the poor little left out kid that doesn't get one?? No, I wasn't THAT kid in elementary school but I'm sure I was one of the kids that didn't give everyone in my class a card. Kids are cruel!
I feel that V-day is a day that makes people that don't have a "special" someone in there lives feel sad and that is the REAL reason I hate V-day. It's kinda a mean day in that sense .. my one friend says "it's like a big ol' spotlight on her with a blinking sign that says "I'M SINGLE"
Sooooo because inquiring minds want to know .. Ry, Linden and I are having a dinner of steak and prawns in the comfort of our own home .. and we will say we love each other like we say everyday .. we will hug we will kiss just like any other night .....basically the only difference on this V-day compared to last years V-day .. well it's 2007!!!!
For all of you that LOVE the LOVE DAY .. Please don't let this blog get you down .. that's not what it was wrote for .. it's just one little bloggers opinion on this red and pink day ... I hope you have a great Valentine's Day and you get all those flowers, chocolates and other gifts you wished for... I hope that you're husbands/boyfriends/girlfriends/wives treat you really special as you all deserve it!

Here here! My sentiments exactly!
Yeah, I'm not big on the day either. I feel sorry for the boys because there's so much pressure on them and it freaks them out.
Steve and I plan on eating a plate of nachos while watching the Canucks game.
That's romantic enough for me!
sorry guys but V-Day is the one and ONLY day that I truly LOVE! love it, love it, love it. So you will just have to listen to me gush about how much I LOVE IT!
I bought my hubby an O Henry Bar, and we're having macaroni and sausages!!! Talk about romance...he won't even be home til late cuz the truck in front of him lost the load of logs and I'm working til 9pm.
Okay Country Mouse totally time for a blog update. oh yeah you're vancouver aren't you...time for a report when you get home...
