So what did you give/receieved for Valentine's Day?

[sakabatou]

I sent a large stuffed leopard toy and some sour candy to my SO.

[Lavender Brown]

1. I have chocolates to give later.

I haven't received anything yet, but then I slept late and haven't ventured out yet. :P

[JackBeck]

2. Umm...if I answered you honestly, it might get your thread locked.

:P

[sakabatou]

3. Just say:

"I got something good."

[seemunkee]

4. Making a special dinner for my wife, sent a cake to my daughter

I have to head out to go shopping for dinner
oysters, steak frites w/ sauted spinach, chocolate lava cakes

But the sexiest thing is I'm going to clean the house and do the laundry while she is out doing some shopping therapy.

[Shell Beau]

5. My husband bought me two books, a picture frame, and

a Starbucks gift card (I am addicted).

One book is The Reader. Can't remember the other right now.

Nothing too fancy. It is all about Bella this day! She is our new love.

[SarahB]

6. My gift to my husband was

A toasted bagel with cream cheese, smoked salmon, capers, and tomatoes. He loves these and getting them fresh in the morning requires a bit of a trek to the next town over.

I have a mystery gift that "might not arrive today", BUT my birthday's in four days and we're going out tonight with some friends and after I drop the boys off at my ex's, the rest of the weekend alone, so it's all good! :woohoo:

Real Emerald and Ruby beads, a friend made the pieces for me.
She promised me chocolate but I haven't seen it yet.

[WinkyDink]

10. Oooo, jewelry! Verra nice!

[MorningGlow]

11. Mr. MG and I agreed on no gifts

We're going out for Indian food for dinner while grandma watches MG Jr. I did give Mr. MG some chocolate, though. We gave MG Jr. some Legos, some Star Wars action figures, the second Indiana Jones movie, a video game, a video game guide, and some candy. He's playing the driving game right now, all blissed out.

[no name no slogan]

12. oral sex/nothing

[sakabatou]

[Lady Effingbroke]

13. I'm giving hearts to DUers, but I can't tell who - it's a secret!

:D

[sakabatou]

14. Lulz

[Lyric]

16. Received:

A box of chocolate, two cards, and a new swimsuit because apparently my better half thinks I'm too fat, and need to get more exercise at the pool. Brat. :P

Gave: A card, and I'm getting her an engraved bracelet at the mall today.

:hi:

[redwitch]

17. We can't afford Valentine's Day this year.

But it's ok, we love each other anyway. I'll make a nice dinner tonight.

[kedrys]

18. It's our 13th anniversary

I gave the s.o. a coffee press to replace the one that committed suicide in our kitchen sink three weeks ago. The gift was well-received. ;)

[sakabatou]

19. Aww, how sweet

In 1 month 3 days, my SO and I will be together for 2 years.

[kedrys]

20. Just as sweet!

Remember, it's not the years, it's the mileage. :D :hi:

[bigwillq]

21. Nothing...yet.

Me and the man probably won't see each other until Monday. He told me today though that he got me something so I will probably run out tomorrow and get him something.

[mitchum]

22. I gave irises and received a chocolate cake

[sakabatou]

23. Yummy

[AwakeAtLast]

24. I gave a birthday party for my daughter

She was born on the 13th!

[RushIsRot]

25. I got a small stuffed Snoopy holding a small heart box of candy.

I gave a large heart box full of Turtles. She was pleased.

[Arugula Latte]

26. We celebrated early. A great night out at a nearby hotel with nice spa facilities.

Also, a nice dinner at a tapas restaurant.

We gave the kids chocolate. They were thrilled.

[amitten]

27. I gave myselt a huge red heart full of chocolates and sat on the

couch all alone watching "Waiting to Exhale" on the Oxygen channel and cried and cried and cried.

Now somebody give me another Wow heart!

















(Not really.) :P

[sakabatou]

28. :P

[Lucian]

29. I got myself a tattoo.

I figured I might as well feel pain on the outside of my body for once, instead of on the inside.

[sohndrsmith]

30. Well, I guess my heart was bored, because it gave me a trip to the ER and a night in the CCU.

Well, technically this was pre-Valentine's day, but the coincidence was not lost on me.

When I got home, I realized I was in the middle of a new post - my anger, frustration and indecision about going to the ER (without insurance). Obviously the pain won out over the expense/inconvenience. It was rather eerie, though to read my "rant", interrupted mid-sentence and never posted. I think I may still post it as a before/after sort of thing. What a scary couple of days.

I would have preferred chocolate, actually.... : )

[Cabcere]

32. Wow, that is scary!

:scared: Glad you're OK. :hug:

[abq e streeter]

35. Also glad you're ( apparently ) OK--

I spent a night in the ER of the Heart Hospital last April, and did a heart catheterization the next day. I'll be paying that off till 2019( not making that up unfortunately). But I needed to get some things checked out and dealt with and so did you, it sounds like. Again, glad you're home and alive and at least reasonably well.

[susanna]

31. DH was out of town on business, got back today.

He brought me some chocolates from the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Company (Denver) and a surfboard refrigerator magnet from Newport Beach CA. I think he got the chocolates at the Denver airport during his plane transfer LOL.

I got him a bag of popcorn/chocolate/peanut mix and a really cute candy iPod (a box of candies, roughly iPod shaped, wrapped up and and a song list pasted to the front with a couple strings w/ candy kisses attached as ear buds). It was cute, what can I say?

[lightningandsnow]

33. My mom gave me a cookie in a pretty tin, and a cupcake.

It made me happy. I wish I'd got something for her.

[Inchworm]

34. Hugs to a few

and in my heart, hope to one.

That is all.

:hug:
