Sometimes it just hits me why I love this husband of mine.
Since mid January, I've been bugging Mr. S to give me flowers for Valentine's day (or V-day as I prefer to call it). And not just flowers, but I mean FLOWERS! Gargantuan bouquets with balloons and chocolates and all that crap. Yeah, I'm a sucker for those things. For years, I have had to endure seeing bouquets and vases of a wide assortment of flowers get delivered to the office, and the awwww-s and the ooooohh-s and the aaahhh-s. I was one of those awww-ing and oooh-ing and aaahhh-ing over other people's flowers. I figured, this was our first V-day as hubby and wife, so I was entitled to FLOWERS. It was pretty much mandatory, I guess. LOL!!!
So anyhoo, I just found out last week that I will be in a training convention next week, so I won't be at the office on V-day. The first time that I can finally join the ranks of those being awww-ed at and ooohh-ed at and aaaahh-ed at, and the opportunity is taken away from me. Life is truly unfair sometimes. So I told Mr. S a few days ago not to have FLOWERS delivered at the office anymore because I wouldn't be there to gloat anyway. I was, of course, assuming that he would do his husbandly duties and actually send me FLOWERS.
Then I took out the big guns...With my best performance to date, and armed with my poor adorable puppy dog look, I asked Mr. S if he still has plans on giving me something for V-day. Unbeknownst to what lies ahead, he asked me what I wanted. Aha! I knew I was slowly reeling in my prey. With a flutter of my eyelashes and putting the puppy dog look on overdrive, I innocently said "Shoessss..."
A moment of silence.
And he said, "Oh, ok fine. Let's buy it on the weekend."
Hook, line and sinker, folks! LOL!!! Such a sweetheart!
My chubby-hubs took me out yesterday for an early V-day lunch date. By going early, it means we avoid the throngs of couples out celebrating V-day too. And it also gives us time to go around the mall to shop for our V-day gifts. teehee! So I got myself another new pair of shoes from Nine West...and it looks sooo chic! Perfect for the office, I say. But Mr. S didn't go home empty handed either. I dragged the man over to Ralph Lauren to get himself a new shirt. See? Happiness thrives in this family. LOL!!!
I've been working on a couple of kits the past few weeks. Since I got on the element team at RAKScraps, designing has totally taken a life of its own. I did manage to make a few layouts still, which is good. If Blogger will be a good little kid and give me my links, I should be able to show you my layouts. It's been a snotty little bugger since yesterday. But anyhoo, I already finished my contribution to the February mega kit. I've also seen the previews of what the other designers have done, and it is looking faaaaabulous!!! I can't wait till its release on the 15th. Oh, and hey, it's RAK week next week! Lots of stuff happening at RAKScraps, so get your butt on over there and join in, won't ya? I also managed to make another kit as a freebie for RAK week, and it's too cute!
Oooookay, so Blogger's being a real a$$wipe and won't post my photos. And I badly wanted to show you my shoes...LOL!!!
But, I'm poofed. I'm hitting the sack. I'm not sure if I can get online in the next few days as I'm sure the training convention will totally fry my brain. So in case I don't get to my puter, happy hearts day to y'all!!!
Spread the love, bellas! Ciao!

Hope you're having a great time with your training. Shoes, huh? Hmmmm... I'll have to remember that for next year. Especially since I'm not in an office, so nobody gets to oooh and aaah over my flowers. LOL

It's lovely to know how Mr. S made your V-day so special :)
Blogger's been a bug, really! Can't wait to see that pair he got you! I'm also a sucker for Nine West! They're heaven-sent especially I've got an unusual size for a Pinay. Hehehe!
Btw, congratulations on another well-done kit! Bravos and cheers to ya!
Enjoy the convention one way or the other :)

hay naku, my hubby failed me last VD...i've also been hankering for FLOWERS, pero syempre pa, ang naisip nyang TWIST is to send it the day after Valentines Day!
i believe i was mad for at least 3 days! kaso nga his niece was born and well, I loved seeing him with the baby :D
kiss pazette for me ever ha? what else ba? thanks nga pala sa Sweet Chloe (? kit) you made... am not yet into digiscrapping the way you girls are... but i've been learning photoshop and I used your kit to embellish some on our new niece's baby pics para mas cute when I have them developed :)
