RN: Maybe you are right, but I know that if it were the other way around, she would throw a hissy fit. I could be going over board, though, I know.

Right now my hubby just went to bed a wee bit miffed (mad as hell is more like it!) He ordered me something for Valentine's Day and it didn't come today. I have no idea what it is or where he ordered it from. He told me the other day he'd spent some money but didn't say on what or where and I didn't ask. He called home earlier this afternoon, but I didn't think too much about it, when he's been working 12 hour days he calls home to say "hi" and let me know for sure when he's getting off work. When he got home he took a look around the house and then finally told me I was supposed to get a delivery today. Was I home all day? Other than taking the kids to school, my niece to school and a quick run to the grocery store (I was home by 9:15) yes I was. I feel bad for him, he kept getting up and peeking outside and wondering what the heck happened and telling me that whatever it was was guarunteed to be here today. I told him that rather it comes today, tomorrow, or whenever it's a nice surprise and I'll enjoy it! We so rarely celebrate anything on the day it happens that I'm used to waiting and we're kinda iffy on gifts anyways because we don't need a holiday or birthday to do something special for each other. He told me he's calling tomorrow and griping at whoever it is because he is furious it wasn't delivered today.

RN The poor guy. It's such a letdown when you've gone out of your way to do something special for the person you love and it doesn't turn out right. RN I'm sure his anticipation of your delight was quite high if he's that upset. I get that way too.

RN, Wargod was it maybe something that all this bad weather would perhaps effect in a timely delivery? OK, I know YOU don't know what the surprise is, but perhaps find out from hubby if maybe bad weather, canceled flights or deliveries could have delayed delivery. Just a thought.

RN, not sure where he ordered it from, but if it was local weather had nothing to do with it, it was 62 today! If he was aiming at surprising me, he did. We celebrated Valentine's Day this weekend when we dropped the kids off at my sisters and went out for a drink and dinner. We do date night once a month, but the last six or seven months we've been staying home, so that was a nice treat for us.

Rn, I just saw on the news where you can purchase Girl Scout Cookies for soldiers serving overseas. I think it's called Operation Gratitude.

Rn, Escapee, real beauty isn't found in make up. Just smile through the day and who knows, you may start something with women who are tired of the whole thing.
