There have been a couple of additions to the Romance Contests
section of my website. I hope one of my subscribers wins that
package to New Orleans or the VW Beetle. Check them out at http://www.TheRomantic.com

By the way, for those who didn’t know, sticking a stamp upside
down (last week’s “little things”) is a symbol for “I Love You.” I
believe it was started during the second world war.

Have a romantic week. — Michael

Jennifer Perkins of Austin, Texas won last week’s contest on creative
gifts. Look for her entry in the updated Romantic Ideas section of
the website. Many other gift ideas have been posted as well and more
to come.

I had such good response with the Halloween contest, I thought I would
have a Thanksgiving contest and possibly share some of the ideas in
this e-zine in time for you to have a more romantic November 25 (the
day we celebrate things we are thankful for in this country). Tell me
something fun and creative you have done for Thanksgiving.

E-mail your entry (with mailing address) <A HREF=”mailto:tipofweek@aol.com”>ma
ilto:tipofweek@aol.com</A>

Your e-mail needs to be received by Monday, Nov 1.

THE HE PLAN, SHE PLAN, WE PLAN, PLAN
by Michael Webb

Before our first anniversary, my wife and I decided that we would take
turns planning our yearly celebration. We agreed on a budget, but
other than that, we each had free reign over planning the annual
event. We also determined that every third year we would plan the
anniversary jointly and spend a little more and go somewhere our
typical budget would not afford.

On the years we are planning the anniversary alone, we try to keep the
details secret until a few days before the event. Of course, if it
involves time off from work, we do let our spouse arrange those days
off in advance. Dropping difficult clues adds to the suspense and
excitement of the event.

Because our anniversary nearly always falls on Memorial Day Weekend,
we get to plan for at least a three day celebration. Usually, we are
able to get away for the entire time and maybe include a stay at a
romantic bed and breakfast, but if not, we would still plan to do
something special each day during that long weekend. After all, it is
not only the anniversary of our wedding day, but also of our
honeymoon.

If your anniversary is getting to be like a tired cliche , add some
spark to it by taking turns planning a creative, secretive, romantic
and fun-filled, several day marriage celebration.
