I am pouting. On the inside. Kinda.
I know I should be practical, but dammit. Here’s the deal: the husband and I are not giving each other anything for Valentine’s Day.
Money is tight (when isn’t it?) and anything extra that we have goes to the house we’re building. We *might* go to the movies sometime around Valentine’s Day. The husband is on call for work that weekend and it’s very unpredictable when he’ll get called in to work.
The selfish girl in me is stomping her feet and pouting big time. She wants a present and wants it to be pretty and thoughtful. She’s been looking around on Etsy waaaay too much and adding stores to her favorites. She wants to buy something for herself for Valentine’s Day.
The realistic practical me is standing next to the spoiled rotten little brat with her arms crossed shaking her head. She knows that Valentine’s Day is a Hallmark holiday. She knows that we really need the money to buy things like milk for the kids. She thinks she already has too much stuff and doesn’t have room for more stuff. It’s just stuff!
Yeah, I am a little nuts. Who isn’t?
