I just spent the weekend at a hotel with the kids for a little staycation. It was awesome and I totally recommend it. The change of scenery, fun with the kids, and relaxing was awesome. Also I day drank mimosas all day long wink Definitely recommend it.

Valentine's Day is on a Friday this year-- maybe plan a fun weekend away with the kids? Or another idea-- can you make a fun Valentine's Day dinner with your kids? Like all the food is red, heart shaped, whatever, fancy fun drinks and a nice dessert? We have never made a big deal out of Valentine's Day as a romantic holiday, but have usually done something fun with the kids, at least a fancy dessert, and that could be a good way to start a new tradition that doesn't have anything to do with your H.

Hang in there!
