I was so excited! Saturday afternoon, Darcy picked up the girls and I set out to run a few errands...Bath & Body Works to pick up a couple of soaps and a candle (Acorn & Fig is FABULOUS!):
Sam's to pick up a bottle of wine:
and strolled through Target to pick up a few odds & ends that I needed, along with a new nail polish (Essie "Trophy Wife" LOL!):
it was then time to head to the spa! I signed in and was given a robe to change into. I changed and sat down to relax (read my Jan. issue of Glamour magazine) while waiting for the masseuse:
He came out to get me and asked me to pick which scent I liked-the oil is from a candle that burns-I chose raspberry grapefruit:
It was massage time! it was 90 minutes of pure bliss! After my massage, I went into the steam room for a few minutes, then changed and left. I stopped to pick up Thai take-out (fresh rolls and spicy basil chicken with brown rice) and headed home. Once home, I lit a candle, opened my wine and poured a glass, and popped in Sex & the City season 2:
and relaxed. After dinner, I gave myself a pedicure & manicure and continued watching SATC. I was SO relaxed that I fell asleep. I woke up at 8:30 and thought it was lame to be sleeping so early, so forced myself to watch one more episode. I went to bed before 10:00 and slept like a log until 8:30 this morning. I went downstairs and made coffee. I drank coffee while reading the rest of my Glamour magazine, then watched 2 more episodes of SATC. Then, I decided it was time to go back to reality and did 2 loads of laundry and vacuumed. At 1:00, I left to go pick up the girls. I was SO relaxed!
Those 24 hours were pure bliss! It's nice to get back to reality now-makes me totally appreciate those downtimes! And let me say- I have the BEST husband (and friend) a girl could ask for! It's so nice to feel appreciated.
