Celebrating February!!

Yep, have not posted a blog entry in 10 months and a whole lot of catching up to do, but not tonight. Tonight, I just want to celebrate February and the reason I celebrate this month above other months... Debbie and Stacey both celebrate their birthdays on the 13th and we all know what happens on the 14th. So, I have two days to demonstrate to my bestest girls just how much I love them and how much they mean to me.
Now, I was informed on Sunday evening that Debbie has already purchased her own birthday gift and I'm sure all of you ladies will recognize the word "COACH" as it relates to handbags and purses. Now, it was hard for her to tell me this because she knows that I know how much some of these purses and handbags cost, but in true Debbie fashion and I expected no less.....she saved me hundreds of dollars because "they were marked down Allen and I had another 25% off coupon," or whatever followed the saving me hundreds of dollars phrase. Ya'll know how she rolls. To my Debbie, shopping is a hobby...a sport if you will. I have golf and fishing!~She has shopping! Makes sense to me. I learned a very long time ago that the two words she only wants to hear from me is "Yes Dear." She normally doesn't hear those two words because I typically acknowldge my approval (or disapproval for what it's worth) with a series of grunts that after 32 years of marriage she understands. Again, makes sense to me. The other thing I learned along the way...when she's not happy, I'm not happy!
Ok, so what to do with Stacey??? Hmmmm, will have to give that some special consideration.
