Flowers & Candy & Dinner with Dan...

OK Guy's... We have arrived!!!  Down to the wire... 24 hours...

Another "Hallmark Holiday" is here!

Is there anything new after all these years..?  

First we have the ABC's... Anniversary, Birthday & Christmas, those are the big three. Going into March it would be nice to call Valentine's Day the final of four, but many of us know Mother's Day is around the corner at the beginning of May.  Arrggg!!!!.. we need some ideas...

It seems the early years and the later years are the tough ones...  In the middle we learn from our past mistakes and find the time & energy to be creative and undertake the Shopping Mission...

Call the florist for a delivery,  stop in the local jewelry store and drop a few bucks, maybe a bottle of her favorite fragrance or a daring nighttime outfit she'll never wear....  It all sounds familiar year after year...

So Ladies here is a chance...Any Ideas...???      Thanks in Advance 

 

I'm always running around the Connecticut Shoreline so if you need assistance Buying or Selling a home in my territory just remember to google Dan Cummings, The Running Realtor or email  Dan@CummingsTeam.com

Dan--Whatever you give it should come from the heart. :)

Personally...We took the pressure off each other years ago and shop together for gifts. Less romantic after a quarter of a century together it is just easier.  

Good luck picking that perfect gift...Sandra deserves it!

Dan, Looks like Sandra is spying so how are you going to surprise her?

My tip is.... first make every day a valentine day. The most favorite gift for me is a handmade card. Roger is not artistic at all, but his sweet sayings and childlike drawings on a plain piece of copy paper folded into a card is the BEST!!!!!~You can do it my friend!

Sandra... At least I put thought into it.

Teri...No pressure... if I don't see anything that strikes my interest she will be satisified with me.  :-)

George... Get out and drop a few Franklins, Lord knows Obama ain't doing much to stimulate things.

Ginger... That's kind of my logic... We typically buy what we want so it doesn't make much sense to go crazy on all these media marketed holidays.

Cripes it certainly is a Hallmark holiday! It is commercialism at it's best. Oh well off to buy a card and some other goodies:)
