VALENTINE'S: Love it? Hate it? Celebrate it!

firegal · 02-01-2013, 02:50 AM

I believe in celebration for any reason. Life is too short and the commercialism doesnt play into my celebration or the smiles on my loved ones faces.

Its another day and i will gladly...cook a nice dinner for someone and put a card in their handbag and notes in their coat pocket.

ANY reason to make a day a lil special.....IM ALWAYS GAME!

SO... what i,m trying to say is i like holidays.... like valentines day too!

I do love Valentine's day but then I love any holiday. People make more effort to share time together during a holiday or traditional celebration and that coming together is what is the best part of it for me. You don't have to spend much money or any money at all. A quick phone call to someone you love is enough. If money is tight (we've all been there) bake some sweets or cut hearts from magazines and stick them on the back of a cereal box. Holidays are not about who gives the most impressive gifts. If you believe that then you're not doing it right! If there isn't that special someone in your life (or even if there is) take some heart sweets into work for everyone to share...

It's the little things that make the biggest impression on me.

I like Valentine's Day even if I don't have someone to celebrate it with. When I am alone it's just another day but I do something for my daughter. My birthday is 2 days later.

I LOVE Single Awareness Day!!!! We'd go to Union and have pretty martinis and steak!!

Valentine's Day is not something I do or care for I like February 10th MUCH BETTER!

I have candy and prezzies for my granddaughter, her sister and mama. I'm taking them out to dinner. Still waiting for my valentine.

TimilDeeps · 02-01-2013, 07:16 PM

The last time I purchased anything for Valentine's day was when I bought my mom some roses. I'm still uncertain as to why I did . . . I was on my way home from work and instead of driving past the florist, I stopped. She loved roses, yellow being her favorite.

She died last November. A yellow rose travels with me, in my car . . .

Valentine's Day is special, however, it shouldn't be more special than any other day.

Do you mean SINGLE AWARENESS Day??

Novelafemme · 02-01-2013, 07:54 AM

After Thanksgiving, Valentine's Day is my favorite holiday. I give the people I care about a special little something, usually baked goods and cards. This year I made everyone something to remind them they are always loved and cared for.

JAGG · 02-01-2013, 08:23 AM

I like Valentines day if I have someone special in my life. Otherwise I don't pay attention to it. I love when my neices make me home made cards. The worst Valentines would probably be ,to be purposely being forgotten.

cinnamongrrl · 02-01-2013, 08:28 AM

I love it now that I'm with someone who makes it a celebration!

Sorry I lost service and could not finish. The worst is being purposely forgotten. The best would be if your gf cooked a great dinner with wine etc and gave you a wonderful handwritten letter with her perfume on it, telling you all the ways she loves you and why. Then off to the bedroom to make sweet love.

thedivahrrrself · 02-01-2013, 11:16 AM

I have a heart-shaped cookie cutter this year. Watch out, single friends!

I'm thinking a repeat of last year will be a fun project.

I like this ... sometimes it's the simplest things that mean the most - especially when prepared by hand with you on their mind.
