This will be the first year I've had them sent to her office. Cool? Uncool?

If she worked in a office I would. She is a Part-time Teacher Assistant and roams from school room to school room.
I've already made plans to have her parents take our daughter for next weekend and plan to bring the flowers home with me next Friday to get a good start to the weekend.

Taking them yourself = Cool
Paying some random shlub to take them to her = uncool
ETA - Although highly unlikly, but what if said shlub is better looking than you? How would you sleep at night knowing you sent Dirk Diggler an invite to hit on your wifey?

Naw.. With the plans set to have the In-Laws take the daughter for the weekend, coming home with flowers will be icing on the cake.You could send them to the office....If she worked in a office I would.

Do it. It gives her status in the office. About half of her office mates will get flowers. Those that don't feel like second class citizens. They think the others are judging them. Imagine that, women judging other women. Why would they think such a thing?

I used to but she actually sat me down one year and said I am completely serious about not getting flowers.
FOr a couple years I thought she was pulling the female oh I don't want flowers they are a waste, blah blah blah.
THen she finally said " NO - I woudl rathe we spend our money on other gifts than flowers"
This year we decided just getting back from vacation and her b-day to just go with small items

It would be an hour and a half drive total and it's not feasible at this time.The 45 minute drive that is keeping you from doing it, is precisly the reason she'll go gaga if you did it.She'll have to live with getting them delivered this year.Leave work early or go into work late?

Sending them to her office multiplies the positive "flower" effect by at least a factor of 10.

Women don't actually like flowers all that much, they like to see other women see them getting flowers. Send them to the office.

Awwww, I think that is so sweet. I liked having flowers sent to me when I worked. This year we are going to Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus for Valentine's Day.

These two basically sum it up.
I get in trouble for sending them (money could be better spent) and get in trouble for not sending them (you don't love me). It's my favorite day of the year.

I got an email from Proflowers and ended up ordering some. There was a promotional code for $20 for roses and a free vase. They did get me on a $12 delivery fee and $3 handling fee. Oh well, $35 not to have to go anywhere or pay this stupid holiday anymore mind seemed worth it.
Now with the snow, the stupid thing probably won't even get delivered today.

Sent my wife this poem instead
Roses are Red
The Market is Tanking
Play Your Cards Right
And you'll get a good spanking
She replied back very positively.

Thankfully my wife thinks it's a stupid holiday. Occasionally, I'll send them on our anniversary. Even then, she usually thinks it's a waste of money. She's not bringing them home and they usually become a distraction as she now has to talk to people who ask what they're for.

This is what I'm wondering myself. The main roads are clear, but all the residential back roads are in terrible shape. I don't know if I should give her a heads up or see how it plays out.

At around 5pm if they haven't been delivered, I'm going to show her the confirmation email from Monday.

The answer is no. Not only that but Im in the doghouse big time for something I said to her yesterday that I feel horrible about. I have no clue how Im gonna dig myself out of this one. So now with today being Valentines Day Ill probably be in the double doghouse after not getting her anything.
