Valentines' Day

Well folks, Valentines' Day is almost on us. That's the time when guys spend tons of money on flowers, candy, perfume, cards, and.............oh yes, almost forgot................jewelry!!!! I wish that I had a small percent of the money spent on jewelry, at this time of year. Then maybe I could afford to buy some, myself. As commercial as it's been made out to be, the actual day gets clouded by the thought that we try to convey to that certain someone. Us guys have historically put our better half through a lot and this is OUR day to tell her thanks. It's not a day to "one up" anyone but a day to express our love, trust, friendship, honor, and devotion to that pardner in life that means a lot to us, without having to get too mushy. My life would be extremely boring without my wife. Funny thing, she's knows this. Maybe she says the same thing on her side. Anyways, give that loved one something a bit more meaningful this year. TELL her what is in your heart..............that you love her and appreciate her more than words can say. Of course, you still have to get the flowers, candy, perfume, cards, and...............yep, the jewelry, but at least you told her verbally, what was on your heart. Yeah, right. Give her a quarter carat ear ring and watch out. I'm gonna shut up and sit back and wait. I'll eat the candy, smell the perfume, read the card, and yes,................look at the jewelry and keep saying over and over............."Honey, I love you." If I play my cards right, maybe I can have hot cakes and sausage for breakfast. We'll see.Happy Valentines' Day!
