Hey there! Hope that things are going well for you! We’ve almost made it out of January, and are closing in on February.
In February, we celebrate a beloved holiday, Saint Valentine’s Day. Valentine’s Day is a great day for people in love, and can be a little sad for people who aren’t in love.
Some friends of mine decided to throw a concert for all the people who love music and want to see it on Valentine’s Day.

Hi, you’ve reached Morgan Grace, please leave a message and I’ll get back to you.
Hey, Morgan, it’s Steph. I wanted to touch base with you about the Valentine’s show. Thanks for getting those posters done. They look really great.
I am having the CD labels printed this weekend and the CDs have been burned so they should be ready on Monday.
Let’s get together on Monday and distribute the press releases, CDs and posters for the show.
It’s gonna be so much fun! I can’t wait.
Give me a call if you need anything. Later!

Discussion

Yeah. There’ s quite a bit to do when you plan a show. For this one, we decided to put together a compilation CD.
It’s a great idea, but it also takes a lot of work to get done.
Wish that you could come to our Valentine’s show! Oh well, perhaps you will spend the day with your boyfriend or girlfriend and celebrate the day of love in style!
