You will think I am crazy but Wayne sent me a dozen roses one time for Valentines Day, I loved them but told him not to spend that kind of money again! Yikes!!! I wasn't mean about it, not to worry, it was very sweet of him and I enjoyed it but I guess I kept thinking of other cool things to spend that kind of money. Lol! I am just not much of a "material girl" and I'm frugal. I like to spend money on things I can use or on things we can do together. (That's just me!)
For all you other guys out there, not knocking the florist business, if your sweetie likes flowers go out and get them!!! MerryMistletoe says get them NOW!!! /QUOTE]
oh girl I am the same way. people will come in, ask about flowers, how much, then do a double take. I always tell them, "Hey, that's why i only work here cause i sure can't afford them!!! i am just like you, i would rather have the $ or something i could really use. my hubby got me some roses when we were dating & then when our kids were born & i loved them...but i didn't work in a flower shop back then either! lol
Overcast skies here in northern California, yet no hint of snow! The school board went well last night; I even received a standing ovation. Several people got up and spoke also, one a former board member whose son had been in my class. My speech went over very well, too!
TOLD YA' SO!!!
I got a nice surprise from my 8 year old grandson. He had early release from school today and brought home a project he made for Christmas. I fell in love with it so he gave it to me! I asked my daughter (his mom) if she minds if I keep it. I wasn't sure if it's something she wanted. She told me of course I could since I am Christmas Crazy! I put the date on the back of it so I can remember when he made it when I bring it out to display every year. I am getting a large collection of hand made goodies from the kids. Our hallways is full of art work they have hung on the walls.
that is so pretty. how thoughtful of your little man to give you this. i know you'll treasure it for years to come.
Good afternoon from a very snowy Western Massachusetts!
Hey I found Nemo! He is everywhere around us!
I went in and worked a half shift this morning, I left just after 11 to be off the road by noon. The snow was light then, but now it is really coming down, and the worst is yet to come. They are saying 2-3 inches an hour at some points tonight. We are all home safe, and probably not going out again until Sunday. I will probably be popping in often throughout the day, not much more to do but watch the snow accumulate.
ttyl
so glad to hear y'all are all home safe & sound. thinking & praying for y'all to keep power & water!
just took this of the back exit of my house...
this is 1' 4" to the cement
OMGOODNESS! I HAVE NEVER SEEN SNOW THAT DEEP!
I am going to have a nice big bowl of homemade pea soup for supper. seems like a really good night for it!
My boss texted me and said she is closing the shop. The roads are just to bad for anyone to travel anywhere.
& wasn't she originally thinking it would maybe "clearup?" lol
I really hate it when you go through the drive thru for dinner and get home to discover that your drink is 99% ice and 1% drink.
i know right!
