The big V day around our house is just another day. It is way to close to my birthday to justify going all out a week later. I haven't gotten a flower or a chocolate for Valentine's day in years. And you know what? I just don't care.
I do enjoy getting gifts or candy, and I love flowers. I was a florist for a brief stint. I like the little secret smile I get inside when I see a lovely bouquet. I know that it is silly to spend good money on something that is going to die, so I don't get flowers very often. But you can rest assured that if you see flowers in my house, it is because I purchased them for me. Not because of any romantic gesture on my husbands part!
I did get taken out to lunch on Valentine's day this year, but it was purely coincidental. My husband and I like to go out for lunch on Mondays for a little us time. When we were out and about this Monday, he suggested stopping for a bite to eat. Neither he, nor I remembered it was a "holiday" until the hostess mentioned it to us.
Yep, guess we are big ol' schmoopy romantics.
