Break Through Taboos

Remember the blog series I started a few years ago Single in the City??? I decided to breathe some air back into it this year and Valentine's Day seemed like the perfect time to start.

I hate the taboo idea intertwined with this holiday: all singles are miserable when it rolls around. I am here to tell you, regardless of your relationship status, you too can enjoy this day.

I was ecstatic it landed on a weekend when I had NOTHING on my calendar. This presented the opportunity for me to enjoy some serious me time (after I cleaned the house for 3 hours after work on Friday because let's be real...who can really relax when their home isn't freshly cleaned???)

Fresh flowers are a must in a clean house

So what did this single lady do on a weekend reserved for the lovers??? I took a shower by candle light after cleaning and then caught up on my shows via DVR Friday night.

I simply adore this gift Pricey gave me - the last tag says "you are loved".

I woke up Saturday and decided to treat myself to see The Choice at the Movie Tavern. Nothing like a great chick flick accompanied by a margarita and mini me burgers. The only things acceptable to combat the chill outside once I returned home were a facial, mani/pedi, a lavender bath, Hallmark movies, and something sweet. After all, we never do holidays without sweets...my dad came home with cupcakes & donuts on Friday. Yum!
