This is a public service announcement for forgetful woodworkers:
Now go buy something for your significant other before you get home tonight...
Don't say I didn't remind you.

Mine said "don't buy me anything, just put the money toward the fence" subtext "that you will be building soon"
Should I believe her? 
She's getting something... probably an orchid, chocolates and a card. I'd rather hedge my bets and err on the side of caution if she really meant it.

My folks do this every year:
My dad buys a new tool for my mom...
Mom buys new diamonds for dad...
Mom hates tools, dad hates diamonds, thus, they trade...
Works for them. | |

Perhaps some candy. It has become a tradition.
Tomorrow the price of roses/flowers will be much cheaper. Her idea, not mine

I got my wife a gift certificate from spafinder.com ... a little late for you to do it because they mail them to you, but they will also send a notification email to the recipient that it is on it's way. These gift certificates can be used at many local establishments and goes over very well with my wife....they are tool reward worthy depending on the spa.

Honestly Honey, that will cost around $100 $150 $200, and I need a few more tools.

I recall DaveO made some walnut heart shaped something or other last year. I would point to it but his photo gallery is so massive I could retire before I find it. | |

Well I carved them (technically grinded them) so they would be in my Woodcarving album (with only 7 pictures in it)
