For 7 hours today I went to the Spa. I WON a gift certificate from my work party in December. I thought I would take advantage of the services, before going to AZ next week for my brother's wedding. I was feeling a little guilty and selfish this morning leaving my kids for so long. Now I know I have left my kids before like when I go to work and to DR. appt. but never for play. Of course Mike didn't soothe my fears of guilty in any way. But after talking to myself and saying that it was good for me to do something for ME. I went with no guilt. (OK maybe just a little)
It didn't stop me from having fun though. I had a facial, a back facial, body polish, face wax and a mani and pedi. It was nice to relax taking deep breaths and just staying calm for a few hours, because I felt so relaxed my body tingled. I love that my toes and finger nails sparkle. My face now glows and not because it's oily. It was hard to say good-bye to the spa and come back to reality. I told Mike that this might become a habit. Happy Wife, Happy Life.
This is before the facial........
And this is after. I'm glowing.

i'm jealous. i've never had a spa day... just little teasers every now and then. i'm so glad you are coming for dallin's wedding b/c my mom got an invitation to the reception, so i've invited myself to go with her! :) don't feel guilty. i think a lot of mom's don't EVER take time for themselves, but it really is important to have YOU time.
If anyone deserves it, it's you. And no MOM should every feel guilty about time for yourself. It is something we all need and should take time for ourselves each day!!
I'm proud of you Rhiannon! And I'll see you in a week.
nice naked pic!
