Valentine's day: Just another day.

When you're on a budget, trying to save money & pay off debt, spending money on chocolates I don't need, a stuffed animal I will stuff in the closet or roses that will die, is just not necessary!!! I warned my husband.... DO NOT get me anything for Valentines day. I don't need any unwanted calories. I don't need a card unless there's lots of money inside (and we know that can't happen). I would rather save our money!!! I asked him, "don't you love me everyday?" His reply, of course I do. Okay well that's all I need. I don't need you to declare your love for me on a certain commercialized day by spending money we don't have!

Valentines day is just another day....
