Wow

My husband sent me flowers. A dozen long stemmed red roses, with a vase and a little teddy bear to go with 'em.

He sent them to me at work.

I'm BLOWN away.

We've been together for 10 1/2 years, and this is the first time that has happened. He's picked me up a couple here and there every couple of years, but they have never been delivered, and never have I gotten any at work.

My office is filled with their sweet scent. My credenza is suddenly the most beautiful piece of furniture in the room.

The card that came with it read:

TO THE LOVE OF MY LIFE. FROM THE MEN IN YOUR LIFE. CHARLES AND CONNOR.

......

He can have the damn TV that reaches to the ceiling. I've got flowers...and a perfect man.

Awwww, I got flowers too. Too bad I had to leave work early and go home and medicate myself to oblivion, so I didn't get to see them until today.

That's awesome, I love flowers.

I have told my husband that if he ever sends me flowers, they have to be delivered to my workplace. Half the enjoyment of the flowers is the envy from other people.

Happy VD!

Because it's my daughter's birthday on Valentine's Day, and I buy my wife flowers throughout the year, it's not an occasion we've bothered with for a decade or more. If I suddenly bought her something I think she'd be suspicious.

Mine did that too! Flowers for the first time in 6 and a half years. What a sweetie! It must be a conspiracy. What do you think they want?
