Happy Valentine's Day to you too and everybody!!!! nm

valentine's . . .
Thanks for your help, I appreciate it!!
Men & Valentine's Day....
Valentine's Day is next week, as we all know. Everyone knows women love flowers, jewelry, etc.
Guys don't. Guys don't even always like to make a big deal about the day.
My question is what they really like to get or do for valentines day?
Any ideas?
Did you get a Valentine?
DH was extremely good to me this year, like no other.
First, I got my tires. Not romantic but at the top of my list!
Then, on top of that he got me a Brita water pitcher and a Coldplay CD, "Viva LA Vida". I'd been wanting both for months but didn't buy them while we still had the house in WI for sale. 
Actually my Valentine's Day is most every day
Hubs did the weekend before buy me a new TV for my workroom and it is so great, Panasonic, 32 inch and looks like HD with just cable. I am surprised because the picture is so clear. This was an early birthday present for March but he is just a real, loving person and he makes me laugh every day of the year. Treats me with much respect and I just could not see me without him. Except for Christmas and birthdays we mostly do not celebrate but every day is a blessing with him.
Valentine deserts
Hi!
I too love to cook and bake!
I know this sounds plain and simple, but with 100 people, you can save some headaches, and emphasize on decorating cupcakes. Cupcakes are so in right now. Maybe you can make some chocolate, some white, or other flavor, and decorate with a nice icing, and some decorations.
Another easy way to go for a large crowd is fill chocolate cups with a strawberry mousse and a strawberry on top, fresh blueberries, etc. You can get these things at Smart N Final. Valentine cookies are always popular too. Make sugar cookies in the shape of various size hearts, and then have some friends over to decorate them, and put each in a clear plastic bag with a pretty ribbon.
Valentine's plans?
Well, I just got my son a few things off e bay for webkinz (secret codes intact), got my husband a coupon book to put in a card (the ones that say the "special" things to do that he can redeem, you know those). So, I'm done for valentine day. Otherwise, can't stand the idea of the day. Here I am crabbing again, like around Christmas. Valentine's day and New Year's Eve, waste of time to me. The only thing I like about Valentine's day are the sales on candy the day after to stock up for Easter LOL (not the obvious hearts, but you know). Anybody doing anything good or have plans for that day, or do you all feel like me "greeting card holiday."
valentine's chocolate
buy it. melt it. think of some new & interesting ways to, uh, serve it.
I did this once. Went over very well.
2nd grade valentine party.... sm
does anyone out there have some game ideas for a 2nd grade valentine's day party? i've tried looking some stuff up on the internet, but not having much luck. wondered if anyone out there has some good ideas.
TIA
Valentine's bingo.....you could make your own
Good luck!
I'm valentine-free by CHOICE! That's because it .....
:P
Valentine's Day always makes me sooooo glad
Here we are, just recovering from Christmas/Hannukah/Kwanzaa, etc., and here comes another holiday that pressures us to go out and buy, buy, buy. I like holidays that don't require you do do anything.
Doesn't offend me to hear Happy Holidays, Happy Hannuka...sm
or any way someone wants to greet me. As a basic rule, people use the greeting most comfortable to the speaker. What does burn my butt is when someone tries to tell me that my comfortable greeting of "Merry Christmas" is not appropriate. To those who are not concerned with my comfort, I have no concern for theirs.
Merry Christmas to all.
Valentine Party games for sixth graders . . .
Does anyone have appropriate valentine games for sixth graders?? This is a tough age to impress; any help would be greately appreciated!!!
If yhour past bf's didn't like Valentine or birthday cards SM
seems they had a real problem.
I don't like wording of "serving", but if you like cooking, there is nothing wrong with that. Chores should be shared and there is no such thing as "man chores or woman chores". It is whatever you enjoy doing. Men do like to cook (mine does) and I do clean, but if you enjoyed mowing the lawn, there is nothing wrong with that. If you start to get taken advantage of, you will know it fast. Then you can discuss it.
I would most certainly give husband Valentine and birthday cards. Most men love that sort of thing. Nothing wrong with showing your love.
Birthday wish to justme2....Happy B-day to you, happy B-day to you. now make your wish...
I wanted to wish you a very Happy B-Day...I am aging so tomorrw I may forget or at least remember at midnight...LOL...to all you celebrating B-Days this month, Congrats
Need meaningful ideas for Valentine Present for husband, everything is geared up for the ladies!! nm

Happy Bikrthday to me, happy birthday
Unbelievable, I have reached the age of 65- where did the years go?? I would retire but gosh, darn just love this work so much, want to keep on working. Hubs had me a delicious huge chocolate cake this morning and daughter coming over for pizza tonight, oh forgot working today also but like I said, hard to give this terrific life up, that is a life in between my working!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU. Hope it is a good one. nm

Happy Birthday to you, then you can wish me a happy birthday on Friday! sm
Aquarians Rule!!!!! LOL
Most men would be happy for a new toy.
My sister got me a toy many moons ago, I named it gumby. My son was 2 at the time and found it DURING a dinner party I was having. He ran into the room waving "gumby" over his head yelling that everyone should look at this sword. My mouth hit the floor and my friends just about peed in their pants laughing. :-)
Happy 4th everyone!!! (sm)
If you're off, have a wonderful day and enjoy it for all of us. If you're working (like me), I hope we can keep productive and make it through another day with little or no downtime. Again, Happy 4th of July!!!!
happy for you!
congratulations! I hope to be debt free myself one of these days, and once I get out of debt, to be smart enough to stay out!
Enjoy the good feeling that you are getting out of all your hard work! 
***** LOL, that should say I think you CAN be happy... ****
Sorry, didn't get enough sleep lastnight and it has been a long day already. My 2 month old is not feeling well.
Happy 62 B-Day to you! nm

Happy. nm

I'm so happy
What great news. I hope she stays on the right track. I'll continuing sending prayers.
They look so happy!
Are they all from the same litter? Brothers and sisters? Come on....tell us a little more about them! They must be quite the handful!
Looks like a happy pup to me!
You know your dog better than anyone, and you know if he's happy. My mom had a dog that would bark over every little thing and it made me not want to visit her. It hurt my ears so bad I almost couldn't stand it. She would put a bark collar on her when guests came over to spare them the assault on their ears, and we all appreciated it, let me tell you! She tried several other methods, but they just didn't work on her dog. Dogs are all different, just like kids.
I used to live in a duplex and the people next door had the most horrible barking dogs. It really made my time in that place miserable. I was pregnant and tired all the time but could not get a nap to save my life because of those darn dogs! The owners have a responsibilty to the neighbors to keep their dogs fairly quiet in my opinion. I am an animal lover (also a long-time vegetarian), but those dogs grated on my last animal-loving nerve! Keep taking good care of your dog - he looks quite content and loved to me!
I think you should be happy
because there is a clinical reason for your troubles and those can be managed with meds and behavioral strategies. Best of luck to you. Please don't let it get you down. Better days are ahead. BELIEVE ME!
Wow! I'd be happy with
half of that!
We did get one snow here in NC that was close to 20 inches, and it was lots of fun, but also challenging because it happened all at once, just like you got, and regular cars can't drive until it's been cleared. Now up in WI, the plows would be on top of it immediately, but here in NC, homeowners were having to use shovels. It was like caveman days for about 4 days here! LOL.
You will be happy to know.....SM
That I called another Kohl's about a half hour away from me yesterday. They had the exact number of plates I needed, as well as other pieces............at 80% off, so I went ahead and got them.
Happy B-Day to me...Happy B-Day to me
Well, I just wanted to share that with all of you wonderful people.
Happy B-Day to you x66, and many, many more..
Wow,
Happy Birthday..and enjoy it to the fullest. Hope it is a very pleasant one...
No, actually I am not happy - sm
I did not ask you to stop "gaming," I simply said there may be a solution to allow 2 Gab Boards so everyone is happy.

How do we know you are really happy? lol

Happy M-day to me
Okay, I'm not a mom but I wish I was. Now I'm just too old to be one (I've lost every bit of patience for small children and getting ready for menopause (and no adoption is out). However, every time I see a small child my heart aches for the child I never had. So many mother's days gone by. No cards, no flowers. No child to wrap their little arms around my neck and say I love you. Spent most of my years going out to brunches to celebrate my mom, my grandma, my DH's grandma and mom, my sister-in-law with her 2 small children. My heart aches for what I never had and never will have. Now my DH kisses me and says happy mother's day from the Cat. Well I'm not as sad as I used to be. Took my sisters son to realize that I no longer want children (that and the Menendez brothers HA HA). So it's happy mother's day to me from the cat, who wakes me up in the morning by jumping on my pillow and rubbing her head against mine saying "wake up mommie, I'm hungry", then runs in front of me watching me to make sure I follow her to the kitchen. While working she will sit on my desk reaching out to touch me fingers while I type away on the keyboard. So happy m-day to me.
Happy B-day to you !
Be grateful you made it this far when so many others have not. Appreciate each day and live life to the fullest!
no, happy mt, they all come HERE and do that. (nm)
Is this not the dump board to them??
Thanks Happy MT...sm
The economy excuse would not be far from the truth either. Just was not sure if it would sound too cliche these days. It really is a good time to bring it up to her. You are so right about Christmas being much more relaxing without gift exchange. My friend is the only person I buy for; everyone else in my life is an adult, so they get stiffed! But at least Christmas is mostly stress-free. Thanks for replying.
happy for you
So glad to hear you got the good news. I have spent much of today worrying about the same as we have a sister who is with one of the chrysler dealers that is closing, and a son-in-law, and 2 very good friends who could be out of luck with GM closures. So far no word from any of them. I am very happy to hear that someone was on the side that had the good fortune to remain open. Good luck to you and your husband.
Happy B-day!
You are not expecting too much to expect your parents and your long term boyfriend to remember this special day in your life. I would probably give my boyfriend the silent treatment and when he says what is wrong say did you forget what day it was. My b-day. He will probably feel an inch tall then. Go to Dairy Queen and splurge on calories. You deserve it!
Happy Children
You don't know me or my children so you can't have any idea if they are happy or not.
And they are, very happy. They don't complain, they do what is needed and they have their activities, work, school, etc. They have great social lives and live life very fully, but with the expectation that things are done a certain way and if they aren't,there are reperucussions.
See my post above in a new thread, if you expect little, you get litte. It's that simple.
Yes, happy birthday.

Happy Birthday sm
We bought a birthday cake with Happy Birthday Jesus on it and sang happy birthday. Our 7-year-old loved it!
That goes for me 2 !! Well done, and happy birthday. NM

That is great, happy for you.
If I had the choice to keep my ovaries, I too would do it in a heartbeat.
Happy Valentines Day

Happy birthday to me, happy birthday
Yes today is my hmmmmmm, 39 and holding at this time but my wonderful hubby had dozen red roses sitting on my desk this morning when I first opened the door. How sweet was that! I adore this man and could not ask for more!
