So Valentine's Day is known for going out to nice restaurants, or some big extravagant date.

How does everyone handle Valentine's day? Big plans, or just staying home?

Last year my fiance and I just cooked a small dinner and watched chick flicks all day :) but this year we have reservations tonight at a dinner/play. I've been looking forward to it for like a month, but today I feel awful :(

I have the most amazing husband in the world. But he is latino, and his family never celebrated this stuff, so he is not knowledable about the traditions of these holidays. So I tend to have to right out tell him, I best be getting some flowers at least for Valentines. LOL But no, we do not have any special plans. I have to work tomorrow and we are getting ready for our trip to Guadalajara at the end of the week, so I am sure we will be just hanging around here. Maybe if I get lucky we will go out to eat. Hugs!

My wife and I spent our "Valentines" yesterday watching Star Trek: The Next Generation and having snacks. I'm not really comfortable going out to eat lately, and it seemed like it would have just made all of my anxiety issues worse.

However, we both had a great time, and things were pretty great.

We usually just have a nice dinner at home and exchange cards. I usually get a small gift for each of our daughters, but since I was in the hospital last week I haven't even gotten the cards, let alone the gifts. Teach me to procrastinate! Oh well maybe tomorrow I will get myself out of the house and get something for them. I will make a nice dinner, but I'm still on clear liquids, so I won't be eating. Blah!

we do the dinner at home as well and just spend quiet time together...

Hope you feel better and get to see your play.

Happy Valentines Day!

Tomorrow my boyfriend and I are going to have dinner and a movie. We have a gift card for Applebee's so we will eat there, and still unsure as to what movie we are going to see. That is about all

Well seeing as I don't have a girlfriend/someone special...I'll be spending the night playing Xbox and watching 24 on DVD. woot!

I think I'd like to go to Applebee's with dragonfly and her boyfriend. I love their baby-back ribs. However...I'll probably just go food shopping with my 82 year-old mother. She's the only valentine I have at the moment. She can still do pizza with all the trimmings, so we'll probably stop for one of those as well.

I went to dinner tonight with my husband for an early Valentine's dinner. Was quite nice. Interestingly I had to rush him home afterwards, because his stomach felt sick. And I felt fine! While I felt bad for him (sure know how that feels), it was kinda nice it not being me for once!

Hope everyone has a happy Valentine's Day!

Gee, I'm jealous. I'll be trying to get a dentist appt. to fix the tooth that broke off on Saturday.

We're getting a heart-shaped pizza tonight from Papa Murphy's for us and the kids. This is one of those pizza places where you order a pre-made pizza, take it home and bake it in your own oven.

I hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day!
I made it to the play, but was pretty uncomfortable during it. :\

It seems like staying in and having dinner is the thing to do!

Nanners- Hope you have a great trip!

Mr. O - I can definitely relate to your anxiety issues! Sometimes the thought of leaving the house makes me a nervous wreck! Usually it turns out to be fine, but there are times when I definitely should have stayed home!

Clonehead- I love Papa Murphy's! Since I'm lactose intolerant, I don't get to eat pizza very often though :( lol
