So Valentine's day weekend is coming up. My H and I never really celebrated the holiday (on the actual day at least) because before BD he would always send me flowers just because. We both thought it was silly to pay twice as much for flowers or dinner just b/c it was V-Day.

However, now that I am "alone" I feel like I'm missing something. I decided to send myself flowers and get the kids a little something to celebrate. I really am doing what I can to take the sting out of the "holiday". Any ideas from others on what they'll be doing to keep their mind off of their WAH/WAW?
