And now we come to the female counterpart of what Cathy encountered when she was trying to decide on an electronic gift for Irving last week. I guess it really DOES work both ways!

C’mon, if you pay attention, there’s always something you can get for your lady that she’s not buying for herself. And even if I buy things for myself, it’s always more meaningful if my sweetie buys it for me.Good morning, Cathy clan! Got lots of ice here… bring your favorite mixers, and we’ll have a party! ;-)

I guess some women HAVE to buy themselves “luxury” items like bath salts, flowers, chocolate, etc., because the men in their lives can’t be trusted NOT to buy them unromantic gifts such as zip drives for their PC’s instead!!!!! ;-)
Hi, rgcviper!
lightenup: Hope you and your family are staying safe and warm today due to the ice storm you just got!
Hello and Happy Wednesday, fellow “Cathy” fans!

Stay safe all you folks in the path of that awful-sounding storm — I know you are one lightenup. I hope it lets up before everyone loses power. I’m so glad Cathy is in a position to take care of herself and not need a man to buy her what she wants. My husband goes with me to the bead shows — and that takes care of most of his gift-giving for the year :)We’re off to Hawaii tomorrow, so last post for awhile. Happy Valentine’s Day everyone.
