No way Garage Selling is romantic!


Garage sales are one of the very last things I think about when I vision romance. Riffling through other peoples juke that they are selling for pennies doesn't even sound like fun to me. What however if you could make these garage sales pay for your date nights or vacations trips? Now they are starting to get a little more interesting. Think about it this way say the two of you start hitting a garage sale from time to time. You both look for things that you think are priced way to cheep maybe it's clothes or trinkets it doesn't matter. Look for things you can at least triple your money on. So if you buy it for a quarter you should be able to sell it for seventy-five cents. Once your bargain hunting starts to build and you get enough stuff for a sell of your own then have one. With all the money you are going to have you should be able to go out for a wonderful evening and if your really lucky use the money for a vacation. Make sure to keep track of how much you spend on all the items and price them accordingly so to not loose track of your goals. Heck you might even find out this can be a very profitable venture for the romance in your life.

Carve your initials in a tree.


Remember long ago when you about 13 and you felt like you were in love with someone. At 13 you didn't have a lot of ways to express your love. If you were like most 13 year old kids then you probably expressed your love in doodling. Writing you new loves name over and over on your tablet your books, only to have to mark them out later when that love ended. Now that you are older and your relationship is a little more stable it is time to move up. This post is even better if you are stable enough to have your own home together. Find a special tree in your yard or on a path somewhere and carve your initials into that tree. Yes I know it is not good for the tree but in the grand scheme of things it isn't as bad as other things. This carving will stand as an expression of your love for each other. Now every time you walk by that tree or down that path you will remember each other. Make it a point to remember it years later and make a pilgrimage to enjoy it time and time again even after you move out of the area. If for some reason your tree gets removed then as soon as you find out replace your love signature on another tree. Love is our nature so why not express it in our nature.

Put some heart into your yard work! (Click here to find out how to mow patterns in your yard)


Next time your lawn needs mowing try this little trick to tell your sweetie how much you love her. Section out your yard to mow a design into it. Let you grass get a little higher and then will your sweetie is not looking plan out your design. You could do her name, a big heart, or just a little hello. Do it before you do the rest of the lawn so you can get rid of it by mowing the rest of the lawn. For the best vantage point of your artwork look at it from a second story window. Your partner will fell special that you have done this for her/him. Most likely they will want you to erase it quickly but the thought was nice.
