Still haven’t decided what to do for Valentine’s Day yet? Ladies – no date? Make it a girls night! Guys – no date? Oh for goodness sake, just follow Brandon’s lead and post on Facebook that you are looking for a Valentine. You do have FB friends don’t you? Better get crackin’. If we are friends in real life and you need a babysitter Saturday, Sunday or Monday nights, let me know. There will be 2 sitters available at my house just for you.
