Valentines Shmalentines...

OK. So that sounds so romantic for most of you ladies (sarcasim). I just can't
get into it anymore. Maybe that's why I haven't been accused of being a Knight in Shining armor (lately) or to go "Throwback" on you it would be called "A Mac Daddy". Yeah ok I used that term in the 90's but it was cool then. Trust me I don't use it now. It's really hard because it seems like we just get over Christmas and then there are like 3 major birthdays in Feb at our house on the 1st, 5th, and 11th. Not to mention a bunch of our kids friends have them in that span too! Between all the cake, presents, and running around who needs a box of chocolate? I haven't finished off all the cake and treat bags from the other parties so then I need to wash it down with Valentines stuff? My wife and I discussed not getting anything or doing anything special for eachother since we got to do something fun on our birthdays. Being an experienced man of marriage for almost 12 years now I quickly saw through that proposal and if I translate it actually means = I am not getting you anything but you better make darn sure I get something! Yeah. I sold out got the box of chocolates and a funny signing card. In the morning I had the kids help me make valentines pancakes with strawberries and stuff. So I don't totally wimp out. Yeah I know. I can do better on the next blog.
