..What Non-Presents did your DH give you this morning..

[Luxmum]

.. My darling and generous DH 'forgot' my presents. Apparently they are all in his desk at work. FFS.. At least this year I was clever, and give his nice presents to him this morning, so he knew what he had to match/live up to.
Anyone else get nothing? Oh, and if you DID get thoughtful and expensive presents.. Don't come here and gloat.

There is a card on the windowsill for me, and I haven't had time to write his yet.

What I have had is dd throwing up on me since 4.45am, after being sick all night too.

Vomit kind of kills romance, doesn't it!

Not sure I've ever got presents for Valentine's Day.

I bought dp a jar of jelly babies which are his fav. And a me to you teddy with a card.

I'm waiting to see if i get a card but he is cooking us a lovely 3 course meal tonight and doing the washing up so that suits me.

I got chunky vomit

DS2 woke up at 3am with D&V,which I had to deal with.

DH got a lie-in and a cup of tea.

Do I win "worst Valentine's Gift" award?

No present, no card, - we had already agreed this a few days ago as even a couple of cards seems a dreadful waste of money we don't have.

I made his cuppa, packed lunch and flask of coffee as usual this morning, and as usual he kissed me goodbye at the door and off he went.

I thought 'oh that's it then' and went about my business, he then came bursting back into the house, saying 'sorry love, I forgot' and grabbed me for another kiss. Made my day anyway. I guess I'm easily pleased

Forgot to add, dh is cooking me a lovely dinner tonight - steak, cauliflower cheese and chunky chips. Yum!

Just hope dd stops being sick long enough for us to enjoy it...

We went out for dinner and a movie a few days ago. That was our Valentine celebration. He works today so we did it early.

DH got me some expensive cupcakes I'm desperately trying to lose weight. These cakes cost more than the average diamond/bunch of flowers I'd have preferred. But hey ho. I'm not ungrateful and have eaten 2 already. so bang goes this weeks good intentions. again.

Tea and toast, same as every morning. Never done presents for Valentines day, all a con really.

There will be steak tonight I know, because its sitting in the fridge, but dont need excuse to ear steak.,

Nothing. It may be a cliche but if we want to buy presents or flowers or have a nice dinner we'll do it when we feel like it, not when the shops tell us to. If the OP is serious then that's a very sad state of affairs.

DH told me he'd give me my card this evening, to 'save me any embarassment'. I made a mad dash to the shops after the school run this morning. He knows me well.

Snap!

At least DS' is food intolerance/allergy related,so now it's out of his system.

Just the visit to the Dentist to look forward to now...

I know there are some presents waiting for me but all very small stuff. We don't do a big thing. I agree with Gwendoline.
I did get him to buy some milk from the corner shop though before he left for work! That way I didn't need to go out

Hmmmmm. Nothing for me, but I'm not really bothered. Got DH a card though, and I'll give it to him tonight. Also,DD and I will be baking his favourite cake this afternoon, so I think that'll do!

My DH has bought me a card, but is working away today and not back until tomorrow, so no romantic meal for me! Not that it would be that romantic anyway, what with my incredible non sleeping DD helping herself to the bits of our dinner that she fancies!

Seems like we aren't celebrating Valentines Day. I haven't got him anything and he hasn't got me anything and we seem pretty okay with that. I mentioned it in passing the other day and he just shrugged casually which was fine by me, as I find forced romance a bit turn off.

Gosh, didnt think I was THAT bad now... DH is a wonderful father, but if I am being uttery honest, he is fairly shit at presents. I got a head torch at Christmas (for reading in bed whilst BFing DD), which while thoughtful, was a bit different from my brother, who chose Christmas day to get his girlfriend a Marc Jacobs handbag, chocolates, Tiffanys necklace, clothes and some Apple apps etc. He doesnt earn much, but has always been insanely generous with gifts. For my birthday, I got a chocolate bar and a nice message in a Thank You card I myself had bought for a random future occasion. So this Valentines Day, he is at least commercially 'obliged' to get me a card i ddint buy myself, and some recognition that I exits (we are going through a crap patch, hence my making quite some effort to get him nice things, to show him that I do, actually, know he exists... Oh well, will go hang my head in shame now.

I got a card and a text but he did start work at 6am so would rather have the text than him wake me up lol.

I erm got him nothing but more because I cant actually get out of the house to a shop and forgot to order intime from moonpig type place - he understands though as I cant walk due to SPD so I might bake him a cake later with the kids as a present for him.

DH told me last night that he is planning to cook something special tonight and we are going to watch a DVD.

I have got him a card and a book he wanted to read.

I think it's lovely to mark your relationship on St Valentines Day )after all, it is a Saint's day, and is not just a random creation of the mass market). However you don't need to spend a load of cash on a load of tat.

Another vomiting DC here! DH has DD at home today while I work. He said he would call me if she does an 'Exorcist' impression. She has already thrown up on his feet.

I think I will owe him a Valentines day present this evening. So I will have to work out something good to cook for dinner.

We've "cross cancelled".

It's Monday. I cant be arsed.

.........That sounds quite bad now I've written it down....
