Hooray!!

Thank god Valentine's Day is OVER...for another year, anyway.

This was an especially long holiday, but it 'worked' because we had Sunday (with almost no deliveries) to prepare for Monday. We felt ahead of the game almost all that time. The hours were long, but we didn't feel too overwhelmed. That's a treat in itself!

The goofy part though was this afternoon, when desperate men started milling in the department and accumulating in front of the coolers.

"Oh. Gawd. Must. Get. Flowers."

You can SEE them fighting with themselves--

"How small will she still go gaga over?"...

"But, do I REALLY need to get a whole DOZEN?"....

"Maybe I'll go for 'simplicity' at $9.99...well, maybe not..."

...and they reach for the closest arrangement, and take it to the checkout.

(See? Valentine's Day is not without it's own macabre humor! lol)

I Love You Flowers
