So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

St. Valentine's Day Presents for Your Girlfriend

By Owen Jones


It is a fact that a lot of men become awfully stressed out when the time comes to go looking for a Valentine's Day gift for their girlfriends. This is more often than not because they are concerned about picking an inappropriate gift. They are concerned about giving a gift that will be misinterpreted for the current stage of the relationship.

If they have just started going out with their girlfriend, they may be worried that an expensive gift may be improper, but at the same time, do not want to risk giving a present that will make their girlfriend think that they are mean.

This dilemma makes buying a present for your girlfriend for St. Valentine's Day a difficult task. I will endeavor to give a couple of essential suggestions below to help you get started choosing a fitting gift for your girlfriend for St. Valentine's Day.

The first thing you have to do when trying to decide on a Valentine?s Day gift for your girlfriend is to consider what stage of the relationship you are currently in. This is very vital because it will dictate which type of present you can give to your girlfriend. If you and your girlfriend have been going out with each other for a while and you are fairly confident that you are both loyal to each other, you can consider an expensive gift.

However, if you have only been going out for a short time and you are not certain where the relationship is going, you might want to consider a less elaborate gift. There are no two ways about it, you have to weigh up your relationship, but you must also keep in mind that she might not reason the same way as you.

You may feel that everything is going well and that the two of you are strongly committed, but she may feel as though the relationship is going nowhere. If you are having difficulties working out where you both stand, talk to your girlfriend about it. She will like that anyway and it will help to assure the two of you that you feel the same way about each other.

Flowers are the old stand-by and are an ideal gift for a man to give his girlfriend on St. Valentine's Day, whether it is a new relationship or not. It is also such an easy gift because it is so widely associated with Valentine's Day that it is not liable to misinterpretation. A present of a dozen red roses is considered a romantic gift but it is also familiar enough that your girlfriend is not likely to read too much into it.

However, there is a common blunder associated with roses on Valentine's Day. For example, your girlfriend may be hurt and saddened by a gift of yellow roses because yellow roses are usually meant to be a symbol of friendship and not romantic love, so speak to the florist.

Jewelry is an appropriate gift to give to your girlfriend on Valentine's Day so long as the cost and type of the present is commensurate with the current phase of your relationship. This is not so complicated, it is black and white really. Ask yourself the question: 'Is she worth $100?'.

However, a good middle of the road, romantic gift would be a box of expensive gourmet chocolates. It shows that you care enough to have sought out such a rare present, to have spent more than a few dollars and that you think she is sophisticated enough to appreciate them. She will love them, even if she is on a diet.
