Valentine's Day - you either love it or hate it, right? If you have a sweetheart, if you don't have a sweetheart, if you don't want the sweetheart you have, whatever. What are your plans for "V Day"? I am happily single, so I choose my mom as my Valentine. A small pink teddy bear holding a heart that says "I love you" with a a small box of sugar-free Whitman's chocolates (God bless the young lady at Publix who helped me find that!!!! Mom's a diabetic.), and a tiny glass rose with a poem about how she is so important to me as her daughter and as a friend. Mom made her famous homemade fudge for the nieces and my sister, and I got to go to the UPS store for packing & shipping, so I guess in a way I helped. LOL! For me in years past, I have chosen to be my own sweetheart for the V Day: if I don't take care of me, I probably won't have what it takes to help others. So I would get the full hair treatment - shampoo, set & style (my beautician gives a great scalp massage in the wash/rinse phase!), bought a CD I wanted, picked up a treat for my cats, something I would not do on a regular basis because it is just me, not anyone special in my life. But I AM special! Not only does my mom, family & friends think so, but I need to as well. Doing a little something for yourself can be a real confidence booster. No matter if it is something free or expensive, do something for yourself especially if there's not a significant other in your life right now. You are worth it! So what are your plans? (Keep it clean & leave something to the imagination please!) Dinner? Dancing? Movie? Chocolates? Flowers? Hot air balloon ride? Share if you wish! Would love to hear from you!
