My cat's Valentine's Day "gift" to me.

So, I'm sitting here, typing a note on Facebook about how I think Valentine's Day is a troubling holiday, and I hear my youngest son say, "MOM!! Miles just puked in the sunroom!!"... then I hear him add, "But at least it's in the shape of a heart for Valentine's Day!"..... So, I made him take a picture of it. That's exactly how I feel about VD day..... thanks Miles, my sentiments EXACTLY!! LOL

Don't get me wrong.... showing that you love someone is WONDERFUL!! But here is my problem with a "holiday" to "remind" people that they need to appreciate your loved one. First off: IF you are single, it only reminds you that you are ALONE and that you have no "valentine". Sad. Second: IF you are married, then there is all this PRESSURE to buy/do something amazing for your spouse. This is definitely one of those holiday's engineered by the card companies to get you to buy cards and gifts... don't you think?

I don't mean to sound so jaded. I'm a lucky girl, because my husband shows me everyday that he loves me, which is how it SHOULD be!! I don't need a holiday to remind me that he loves me.....

What do you guys think? Am I crazy? Sorry, but.....

It's just the way I see it..... and Miles, the cat agrees!!

PLUS.... all the restaurants are crowded!!! Another bummer....
