Valentine's Day Ideas

I realize Valentine's Day isn't for everyone and if you are single it can be hard.  If you don't embrace being single and it hasn't been your choice.  That said here are a few things to do for Valentine's Day regardless of relationship status.

• Chocolate or treats.  Single, couple, whatever - don't wait for anyone to buy you sweets. Get them yourself.  Even a bottle of wine after all the special day falls on a Friday.
• Makes plans ahead of time to go out after work for drinks. If people unavailable maybe go out Thursday night.
• Purchase funny Valentine Day cards for friends and co-workers. Remember when we were kids and gave them out at school? Do it as an adult - most people will get a kick out of it.
• Have a "friend" valentine evening. If you know few singles go out to dinner or have a potluck. Watch a movie and munch out.
• It is one day. If you find it hard take a deep breath and remember it is one day.  Have a bubble bath. Watch a favorite movie, start a new Netflix series or read a book. No plans - this is not a reflective on you.  It is a money making day for businesses.
