I forgot to get her a Valentine's Day Card !

[mojjax]

I went to the store last Saturday to stock up on groceries before the Sunday/Monday Blizzard . I forget to get her a card . The storm ended Monday night leaving us with 30 inches .

Valentine's Day came - our Plow Guy didn't . My GF gave me a card she bought last month .
I remembered I had a box of used and unused Christmas cards I got off the free table at the dump last month .

I pull out a used one with a long rambling note it written by a stranger , and with the help of a little Whiteout & a red marker .....................

It might work for you, but I'd been in trouble. Really big cold shoulder trouble. In fact, this move on your part could well cost you a bunch of flowers and a high dollar, candle lit, romantic dinner.

Some women aren't in to the traditional roses and teddy bears. You may have a down to earth understanding woman unlike many others. Mine? For valentines I picked her up a breakfast sandwich a scratch off and a couple kit-kats in the morning and packed a lunch out to the woods and set up a tent in the snow, gave her a little cash for the bath bombs and such she might want and she was happy.

That's too cool. I'm laughin so hard it's bringin tears to my eyes.

She actually thought it was hilarious - She gave me a big hug and said I reminded her of Macgyver . We have been watching it every night on Netflix the past few weeks .

Don't know how you pulled that off. I created a point system years ago to help us guys earn points when dealing with the fairer sex. I named the point system SINDOGA which stands for S**T IN THE DOG HOUSE AGAIN! I checked my point chart and reusing someones valentines day card is a negative 1000 points! I just checked my point total and I'm still negative in 2017. Luckily your point total resets at the end of the year!

" My GF gave me a card she bought last month ."

She was prepared.

But, hey ...
Now, you have a card for her birthday.

Same card for birthday, 4th of July, Thanksgiving, and even next Christmas. What girlfriend wouldn't want a financially responsible man who would rather re-purpose an old card several times in order to save more money for things that REALLY count?

Nice save, but seriously now- who the hell actually owns a bottle of white out anymore?

(and it wasn't dried out either, freaking amazing!)

White out In my book you've earned 150 points for using a relic for a modern day task! You do know you lowered the value of that relic now that you've opened it?

On the other hand...... Went to the dollar store a few days before to get soda. Yup! save 39 cents on each 2 liter. Looked through the cards and there were some really nice looking cards for $.99. Grabbed a bunch. Went across the street to get the dog food and walked by the card rack. Almost fell on the floor! For cards that were the same quality or less $5.25 - $6.50!!!! Oh, the dollar store cards were in cellophane so the cards stayed with their envelopes! This is important to me, because I'm the guy that is constantly having envelopes that are 1 inch too wide or has to spend 20 minutes shaving down the card so it fits the envelope I got.

I had taken my homemaker out for lunch last Tuesday. Remember, happy girlfriends and wives, happy life.

I bought cards ahead of time a couple of different times. Seems the only time I run across them is when I don't need them.

As for the cards/envelopes in cellophane, I prefer that they not be. The wife likes to reject the original envelope and spend 30 minutes trying to find another proper-sized envelope in a "pretty color".


Oh, HI Honey. ..............
