National Spouse's Day

Spouse’s Day is a time to enjoy and appreciate your better half. On this January 26 holiday, show your spouse the love! You can use this day as a prelude or warm-up to Valentine’s Day if you’d like. But, note it is not really a gift-giving event. Rather, use it as a time to show your spouse that you care and appreciate all of the things that he/she does for you and the household. In other words, take a minute to be thankful for what you’ve got.

You’re in it for life. Over the long years of a relationship, it’s easy to take for granted the many things your spouse does. He/she is always there. They do so many big and little things as routine activities and events. Take today to notice those things, and to say thanks. As for the “enjoyment” part of the day…we will leave that up to you to enjoy your spouse however the two of you desire.

• Grab some candles and a bottle of champagne and jump into the hot tub.
• Take each other out to dinner.
• Treat your spouse to a spa day.
• Still raising the kids? Get a babysitter and go out to dinner.
