Happy Valentines Day
So today is Valentines Day, the 14th of February, and I hope you all have a good time with your loved ones. Whatever you have planned, be it a nice romantic meal out, cosying up on the sofa watching a lovey dovey film, or simply putting the kids to bed early for a quick snog, I hope you enjoy it immensely.
Although I have a bit of a problem with the whole idea of one day to celebrate your love, surely that’s every day of the year! And I do think it’s a bit of an invention of the card industry to fill the gap between Christmas and Easter. Apparently 1 billion cards are sent each year, so the vast majority of us take part in some way. I’m not adverse to a bit of romance myself so will be celebrating too, despite my reservations about this particular holiday.
Today is also Singles Awareness Day or SAD, a humurous, self deprecating holiday for those of us who may be single at this time of the year. Whether you are alone or have someone to share it with, please see it as another day to express your love to someone… even if it’s just your pet. If there’s one day I (and you) can be excused for being cheesy, then surely this is it.
