Ok i got an easy one she will love. Go to the local home store. In the hard wood section they have some exotic woods, select a piece that is 1/4" thick and at least 3 " wide. Next go to the tool department and get a copeing saw. Next go to paint and get some type of wood finish ( stain and sprsy laq is a good idea.) Now find a a pic of a shape you want to cut out. Print it out and shrink/ exapand to fit the piece of wood. Take a glue stick and stick the image too the wood. Use the coping saw to cut it out. Sand, finish, wrap it up nicely, add in some chocolate, some flowers, maybe a gift cert to a spa... wine/ fwvorite spirt . Easy, quick ( 2 hours at most including shopping) she will love it and keep it forever.

sending our only kid at home to grandmas for the weekend.
then cooking my wife some filet mignon and opening a nice bottle or 2 of wine
goal is to let my wife have a weekend without kid drama and do what she wants

Nothing !! There's nothing good enough for my awesome girlfriend so that's what she is getting .. All kidding aside we don't do gifts ever and have been together almost 29 years . Guess it works for us .

Another thread suggested an instant pot, but i think you would get more traction with an LV bag or something of the like.

Wife sent me a link to some deal for underwear from Victoria Secret, ordered them and called it a day. Of course Valentine's day falls on a Friday so I imagine we're going to dinner as well.

Normally, I would stop at my favorite florist and have them make an arrangement and then drop that off at work for her. That’s never been a bad idea.
However, we will be in Havi picking up her new boat so I think I’m covered this year.

I think I will just drop this off right here to give you some ideas. Seems like a win-win to me. Try to not lick the screen...😍


I am not exactly sure what they are selling but I am pretty sure I am a buyer...:cool:

I’m sending the wife and kids to Disneyland while I visit all the bars on the outside recommended by TPC. Lol

seriously, we are going to Disneyland (kids birthday’s and haven’t been in 8 years), but wife and I quit with these holidays years ago. I do usually just buy here a card and write something nice within.

An air fryer, an insta-pot, the usual couple dozen roses, and a date night with me! The flowers and date night were all she wanted, but since we do date nights somewhat regularly, and she mentioned after Christmas she wished she'd asked for the 2 appliances I figured icing on the cake can't hurt lol. I'm good with date nights, they're Always a good time!

She has enough purses to outfit her own store.

We have been shooting skeet a little. So I decided to get her a Browning Citori 725 in 20 gauge. Going to pick it up tomorrow.

If you get the edibles, don’t eat em before she puts em on

Costco has some nice floral arrangements that can be ordered online with a guarantied delivery on valentines day. They are not to expensive and at least you wont come up empty handed.

Flowers delivered to her salon on Friday. Staying home Friday night cooking and not deal with the shit-show at a restaurant :rolleyes:

Pro tip... if you want flowers or roses. Dont go to conroys or 1800flowers.com and buy $100 dozen in some sh%tty vase. Run to home depot the night before/morning and they'll have a whole center aisle filled with roses for like $20.

Trip to New Zealand. Wheels up tomorrow.
It’s actually last year’s gift coming to fruition.
Coming up on our 40 year anniversary and it has been on our bucket list all this time.

I'm getting up in the morning and leaving before she wakes up, then coming home after she goes back to sleep at night...pretty sure she'll love it.
