Valentine's plans?

Posted By: HolidayMT on 2008-02-02
In Reply to:

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 . . .
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.
Happy Valentine's Day! sm

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.
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.
Need meaningful ideas for Valentine Present for husband, everything is geared up for the ladies!! nm

I always just say I already have plans (sm)

he had plans but is willing to help.

4th of July plans?
What is everyone planning on doing for the 4th?  We will do the typical: cookout with family but this year we are trying some new receipes like turkey burgers and ostrich burgers, and then we will either set of a few fireworks or go to the park to see the professional fireworks.  Either way just really going to enjoy my family even if it rains.
Plans for the weekend?
Anyone have any fun plans for the weekend?  We have no big plans...may do some clothes shopping for the kids if I feel like it. 
Weekend Plans
It's my husband's birthday Saturday so we're going out to dinner with friends. It's supposed to be a hot weekend so we'll spend much of the time in the pool with our daughters. We also usually have bonfires on the weekends with the neighbors/friends and/or a cookout since the weather is so beautiful.
Weekend Plans
Saturday we're going to the Zoo. One of the elephants is having a 40th birthday party celebration there. And Sunday the family's driving about an hour away to go visit my parents.
Weekend plans
We're going to finish school shopping and then on Sunday we're going back to the NYS Fair to see the American Idol concert and Monday probably a cookout with our friends.
Ask her how she plans to pay for his tickets
Some ego she's got to think her kid's graduation is so important that other families need to inconvenience themselves for it.  I suppose she expects a gift on top of the 2 grand?  Tell her to pay for the tickets and I bet her tune will change quickly!
Do you have plans for Valentines Day?
Do you do anything special for Valentines Day? If so, what sort of things do you do for your spouse/SO? Do you buy gifts? cards? Cook for him/her? What sort of things does your honey do for you?

I usually make something, sometimes a meal, and sometimes just some kind of special dessert, and I always get him a card. He's soooo hard to buy gifts for so I don't usually get a gift for him.

Most times DH takes me out to dinner. He always gives me a card, and sometimes a gift. In the past it has been anything from a box of candy and stuffed bear, to a diamond necklace. He's a very romantic person, much more than I am!
Plans for the Summer
One of the weeks in July my daughter's friend is coming up from Florida to spend the week. We plan on going on day trips to a water park, the beach, ect. Hopefully in late July or August our family and our best friends' family are going to go to the Jersey Shore or Maine (we haven't decided yet). We had planned on a bigger vacation to Florida, Mexico or a cruise, but the money held us back this year.
Easter Plans
Going to my parents an hour away as usual. We're having pork roast and all the trimmings. Unfortunately, a sad time too. My aunt passed away this past week and my cousins are bringing her back for burial the day after Easter.
Plans vary according to where you live...sm
check your local paper for ads. You need to figure out how much you'd use a phone and use that for shopping the networks. You can also check with your phone company and cable company as sometimes they have special pricing available with a cell phone carrier that can save you $5-10 a month. Be sure to read the small print. For example, Verizon advertises you can get up to 4 free phones with an account; however, the "mice print" states that there's a 2 year commitment for each phone that is purchased. Therefore you might end up paying for the additional service that you wouldn't use if you have kids close to moving out on their own.

Good luck!
do not make plans with her again; if she asks why,

Does any one know of any prescription assistance plans? sm

I need help with paying for medication that my husband needs that costs $150 a month and of course insurance isn't covering it.  I know that Walmart has the $4 prescription plan for generic medications, but his medicine doesn't come in the generic form.  Are there any other programs out there to help us?


Thanks


Because he is making vacation plans
with a guy, not his wife. That sounds like a guy who has no interest in vacationing with his wife. A man's wife should always be who he thinks of when he thinks of vacation. Not that he can never take a trip or vacation without her, but he should take his thoughts to her, not just announce it as if she is just the help.

Something is very wrong here.

Well they do get rated up if they buy individual plans (nm)

Vacation plans finalized...sm
Friend and I finalized plans to go to Maine for vacation in the summer and Disney World near Christmas.  Have never been to Maine, so I am very excited about that.  Disney is more for my friend, but since I usually only get to see her once a year, I am really excited about that trip, too. 
Not make definite plans ....
Third grandbaby is due any day.
It makes it hard to have other plans, but drama is

She's only a teenager once, and there's only one spring drama performance?  How many weeks could this last?  I wouldn't sweat it too much.  We love to go "up-to-bat" for our children, but we need to pick our battles.  If she is a teenager, you do not want to give the impression that you are not supportive.  We found the same thing happening with baseball practice for our son last year, so we just planned on the "not knowing".  He'll only play baseball for a few months, and then it's over :(  Hang in there, she'll be driving herself soon...  YIKES!  I don't even want to think about that.  Be glad she's involved in drama and not "other things".....  if you know what I mean...   Good luck on the performance. I'm sure she'll make you proud! 


keep suggestions, ideas, plans out of her ear range.

Even tho it is 6 weeks in advance you had already made your plans sm
and your parents need to honor them.  Either they go with you, stay at your place alone for a few hours or they stay at their own house and come another time.  Holidays are all about traditions - if they change the rules they need to be able to ride out the wave.

My Boyfriend and I made our vacation plans last night
My Boyfriend and I made our vacation plans last night, we decided to go to a local beach (well, its 4hrs away) but have decided to make it a romantic one (close your eyes sis) So instead of spending money on gas and cheap hotels on our first vacation plan (minnesota) we decided to spend the money by going somewhere local on nice hotel rooms. One room offers a Romantic package which includes Bubble bath, Champaine (we don't drink, but one day wont hurt us) and a few other stuff to pamper yourself's with. My family and I used to go to this beach/town every summer and I haven't been there in a few years so I am really looking foward to going, plus he has never been there before so it will be really fun showing him where to go and where to eat.

Ok, here is the hard part. We are going to the beach..which we try to go at least once a month (our usual spot is 2hrs away) but this time it's different, we will be spending 2 weeks there and I want to be able to wear a bathing suit (or at least shorts and a tanktop).....so I need to get my butt into shape....This is where all of you come in (if you are willing to help) I need advice, inspiration, tips, reciepes, workout tips, prayers anything that will help me lose weight! Our trip is in August and I want to lose 50lbs I realize that's a short amount of time and a lot of weight so I am making a mini goal of 30lbs.

Any exciting plans for the upcoming holiday weekend? nm

ask how long she plans to stay as you need help cleaning out the attic or some
yuck job...

maybe?
"selfish jerk", as you call him, AGREED to help, DESPITE his plans.

After talking about summer plans down below, I was wondering what some do with their pets
when they go on vacation?  I have thought about the kennel for my dog, but she's so spoiled and loves people.  I just worry she'll be so upset at being at the kennel.  My mom will take her, but they put there dogs outdoors in little fenced in kennels for each dog with a dog house, food, and water and then they let them out twice a day to run.  I just don't think my baby can handle that either.  She needs to be indoors at night close to people.
Went to see one in Mt. Juliet, TN. She was fantastic, told me I was moving (no plans at that time),
marriage would last--missed that 1 by 2 years, but pretty close. She hit my girlfriend exactly - initials of BF, etc.
simply make up an excuse of having other plans and override her boldness
