Valentine's Day- Like or Not

I have to vote

I've been with my hubby for 12 years and I don't think I've ever had a GOOD (thats all I'm asking) VDAY. I used to love this holiday now I don't. I want it to end and it just sucks. I try to like it and I go with the flow but this year was a total bummer and I just give up now! My kids do make my day and they are the only reason I'm sane on this day. I know I need to let go but as a married super mom I deserve a GOOD Valentines Day too! Yes, sorry this was a vent but I felt like I really needed to say something and this is my blog so there!

Do I have any other blogger/readers that cringe when Valentines Day comes?

I feel like you do about birthdays.

Have a great rest of the week.

I just try to remember that I would rather feel loved throughout the year (or at least most of the year!) then on one particular day randomly picked by some corporation!

That being said...I do love little pink and red hearts this time of year and my husband is usually grumpy pants!!!

But after 10 years....whats one day???? I'm with you I vote NO on valentines day!

xoxoxo

I wanted my hubby to step it up a bit on this day...I don't except or want expensive gifts because thats not the point. I wanted him to show some effort! One day out of 365 isn't asking for much. But its new week and life must go on and he didn't get attitude for long so on to the next! But I did buy me some Steve Madden shoes on sale (50%) and that made me feel better :)
