Remember Valentine's Day a few years back, in the Before Times, when this new thing called "coronavirus" was a far-off concern and you might have even had energy to make your kids heart-shaped pancakes or canoodle with your partner? Yah, us either. It's been a tumultuous few years, spent mostly in parental survival mode, and it's left us with little energy for even the most self-serving of Hallmark holidays.
Rather than feel bad that there's no dinner reservation on the cal or sexy lingerie in the mail (LOL), let's once again make laughter our therapy with memes that reflect just how tired and uninterested parents feel about Valentine's Day in 2022.
