We don't "do" Valentine's day, but
I made some shelves to get junk out of my wifes way today. Does that make me a sell out?

1. No
I wish my husband would make me some shelves. I'd give up the box of chocolates for it! :)

5. Oh man, you rock!!!
I've never been big on the commercial aspect of V'Day. I've always thought that it's corny to celebrate the strength of a relationship on one day.

I would be stoked to get home-built shelves. That is so thoughtful!!!

6. Hell my hubby wouldn't even get me a card today....
Our 6th Anniversary was Saturday, and he warned me Sat night NOT to get him a Valentine's day card cause he didn't want to go back to Wal-Mart and get me another card. He didn't want to "deal" with reading all those cards.

The romance is over...lol.

8. That's WAY better than flowers.
One year I wrote an ee cummings poem out with calligraphy and framed it for my husband.

Again, way better than flowers, in our opinion.

Shelves! Cool!
