What are you doing on Valentine's Day?

[OceanPrincess]

Mods: can't seem to find the holiday and special occasion area, sorry if I'm just blind...

What are you up to on Monday??

Are you a hopeless romantic, with a massive day and/or night planned?

Or are you a bit over it, not doing anything special?

Do you indulge your loved one with a card, some choccies, flowers, anything? What about your partner, what do they do for you?

What about those with kids? What are you planning? We're not going to have baby sitting options so I'm thinking just a nice dinner maybe... Once kids are asleep. What else could we do?

Nothing here, DP is in plaster and can't do anything and were not big on V day around ehre.. although i would love if he secretly ordered flowers but no work = no pay.. will be the same for my b'day next week.. but right now i have him and my girls and that's enough LOVE for V Day

[briggsy's girl]

DH and I celebrate the day we first "got together" on V-Day - i'm working all day (blurgh) and made him promise NO gifts or anything - we'll do something spesh together for dinner, but the over priced gimmicks just drive me nuts. i will probably go pick a rose from the garden before i go to work and give it to him though lol

[Mum2Romone]

Well DH will be at work and I will be alone as DS goes to daycare.... oh well.... I bout DH some hot stones for massage....in a little bag, cute..and a card and some massage oil.... In a big red box. I will probably get him a chocolate rose, saw them in bigw cheap

I will get a card nothing special expected..... Three years ago we made DS on valentines day so maybe a little celebration

[Phteven]

Sending the boys to school, gym, cleaning the house....
I don't really get valentine's day and I don't think DH does either.

[Arimeh]

Nah we're not big on Hallmark celebrations

Nothing here, just another day!

[turtleschell]

I might make DH watch a soppy movie with me. Dear John or whatever that one is

[ubba82]

We dont celebrate v day either. We know we love each other, dont need a particular day to show it on.
We are however going to get the babys morph scan though!!

[OceanPrincess]

Mel - as much as I agree with you on not being big on Hallmark celebrations, I am a bit of a sucker for a big bunch of roses... But I'm always aghast at how expensive they are!!

BG - we celebrate our engagement so we have another reason as well!

Ubba - awwwwww that's a great V day!

ZF - hug Hun! You're right, that is a lotta lurve

Turtle - I think we've got Dear John around here somewhere ... DH would loooove that

Might chill some bubbles, that'll be nice and special, we don't drink much since we had kids!!

[grub17]

having my 20 week scan (i'll be 21w5d tho) and possibly finding out if it's a girl baby or a blue baby... and maybe having another magnum just to celebrate ;P

otherwise probably just have a nice meal together and some nooky :P

what are you doing??

[feeb]

Diddly squat!!

I start uni and DH will be away in Sydney for work!!!

Generally we would have a nice dinner rarely buy gifts.

[Muffy]

nothing as usual. lol

[GabberQueeN]

Nothing DH hates VD

[RhiChiChi]

Nadda here too.

I actually have a training course in the CBD and will be probably coming home to pasta for dinner!

[Laranna]

The usual daily grind

Pre kids DH used to go all out, sending flowers to me at work, fancy dinners, etc. One year we went to a fancy restaurant and it all just seemed so fake and set up, everyone there for the exact same reason, eating the same thing.

Since we've had kids, I told him no presents so the last couple of years he has cooked me dinner which is spesh for me as I get a night off cooking and he really puts the effort in and looks for a new recipe to learn. I'd prefer him to make a big deal on my birthday

[indie24]

We usually just have a nice meal. Since havinng DD that usually involves take out of some sort.

[Party-of-five]

Mil is babysitting so we can go out for a nice meal we dont do presents

[Mak]

Normal day here too - but may try and do something nice for DH. He has hard a rough few weeks and deserves to feel spesh. Not sure how tho.....perhaps a roast??
