What I learned on Valentine's Day

I'm not a huge fan of Valentine's Day. It may be because I'm single (okay its almost positively because I'm single), but that's not the point.

To get to the point let me just go through my day:

It started out with my phone having been unplugged during the night. Due to this it died & I overslept by almost two hours. ...oops

I went to my first job, did what I could in the time I had.

Drove to my second job & ended up having to circle around a couple of times to find parking. The parking person has been cracking down majorly lately. So again I was running late (I HATE being late, its a thing.).

I walked in and on my desk is a box of chocolate covered strawberries!!! 

Now chocolate covered strawberries are a favorite which I get maybe once every two years, so I was excited!!! (And I totally pigged out and ate them all throughout the day...oops!)

So being Valentine's Day I went to Tulsa to window shop & go to a movie.

I went to Panera to eat & ran into a situation which gave me perspective. 

I sat down and a couple were talking to a young girl with a baby, who looked like she was crying. 

They finished up their meal & left. This girl was still there looking lost and had no food in front of her. 

I asked her if she needed anything, food or anything. She told me the couple had gotten her a gift certificate to Panera & she didn't think she could keep down anything. (I thought later I should have gotten her a tea & some bread.) She told me she didn't have anyone in town & that the father of her son had stood her up at Panera. 

So what I learned today: my problems aren't as bad as they could be & I actually had a good day.

What was the best thing about your Valentine's Day?
