Adam@Home by Rob Harrell for February 13, 2023

Hopefully, she’ll forgive him for his lapse.

Yeah, can’t believe you landed Laura!! What was she thinking??!!

There’s still time, you can find something Adam.

ummm let’s hope Laura gets you a new brain for Valentine’s then shrug (psst I need one too…)

At least Katy remembered. Cute kid(but watch what she tells you to do-which is very likely).

Heck – its just another day.

Though husband will probably have to listen to me recite the parts I remember from the part I had in the second grade class play about February and my part was about St Valentine himself.

Could be worse. “Valentine’s Day” is today, dad. What did you get for mom?"

“Double-Gasp!”

Good thing my wife sleeps in. I still have time tomorrow morning to get a card.

Funny how nobody ever asks Mom what she got Dad. Which is typically nothing.

My wife generally buys her own birthday and Christmas presents, then tells me what great taste I have

Valentines is on me, got it handled

Couldn’t wait, so I gave it to her yesterday

Every day is Valentine’s Day.

Had our V-Day dinner Saturday, because snow is forecast for tonight and tomorrow. Ain’t safe to drive in the snow here. Too many folks in monster trucks and SUVs with magically 4×4. Also, they lack a basic understanding of friction and momentum.

He doesn’t have a brain?

I hope she likes Axe body spray and Mentos.

Better make sure you have flowers and candy for the ladies in your life, Adam!

My wife said if I treated her like a queen every day of the year, I didn’t have to worry about Valentines Day. Works for me! And her!

She’ll do what lots of women do and send herself a dozen roses to her work place.

You and at least 100 million other guys out there….

Good thing you have those little reminders around the house. Too bad she waited until the 11th hour to remind you.

I guess you’ll have to get the ‘I forgot Valentine’s day’ bouquet.

I’m so glad hubby and I skip this one.

He sits in front of his computer 90% of the time – there is ZERO excuses that he didn’t know when VDay is.

Paper hearts one day a year? Of these we have no need. For, she has mine And I have hers – We long ago agreed.

Husband came from a big present family – both in terms of the size of the present and the importance of giving/getting one – but they never did anything together for Valentine’s Day – his dad would buy jewelry for his mom (she received jewelry for every occasion), but that was it.

Valentine’s Day was a big deal in my family when I was growing up. Dad would come home from work early (meaning in time for dinner not late night) and we would have dinner and exchange cards. Possibly if he had gone to a client who sold chocolates we would each get some.

I remember the last Valentine’s Day with my family – by that time I was married as was my middle sister (of the three of us). I should explain that I was the daughter (no brothers) most like my dad in temperament and thought. He gave each us of a card and the usual small box of candy from his client. Husband was there, as was my then only brother in law. I opened my card and dad had written in it “You are my favorite daughter.” Now, I had always thought this, but could not see him putting it in writing.

The thought then struck me that he probably wrote this in each of the three cards. Sure enough I saw my sisters trying to see each others – and my – cards. Yes, that what was he had done.
