Adding ME time

I scheduled some ME time officially.

Friday, I'm having a foot massage with a friend.  It's the kind where you sit in a recliner chair and they massage your neck, arms, legs and finally FEET!  It's cheap and fun and relaxing.  We'll catch up with coffee after.

Monday (my BIRTHDAY) I scheduled a 90 minute massage with someone I haven't used before.  I don't often do the 90 minutes unless I know I like them, but I'm taking my chances.  Why?  The receptionist said she specializes in FEET and I LOVE a foot massage.

I'm also taking some ME time today.  Morning boxing and afternoon shopping.  I need a gift for a friend so I'm heading to the outdoor plaza where there happens to be a Zoe's Kitchen (Whole30 menu)!!!  Good planning.  I'll hit it up for lunch.  I'm due to food prep again so lunch out feels good.

I ended up running most of the walk yesterday.  Duke was pushing to GO!  I still need a better rest day.  I thought about skipping boxing to give me that rest time, but that's what needs to stay on my calendar.  Saturday will be a total REST day - not even a power walk. (We're planning to take the dogs swimming instead!)

I busted ass yesterday to get my stuff done.  I was pooped by the end of the day, but it's such a relief to have those things off my to-do list.  I have one last must-do leftover today and that's it.  The week feels much better -- still lots of stuff, but today is open enough to enjoy some space.

My birthday gift from hubby is a new phone.  Mine is over 3 years old (because I took over his old one).  We are also going to "fix" my iTunes account that my dear youngest son took over years ago and screwed up my interface with my stuff (i.e. I can't get it on my phone - we've all tried).  I don't want it for the music, I want to start listening to podcasts in the car.  I stink at new technology and I'm always 10 steps behind -- time to step up (I'm super late joining this party)!  The real gift is getting all this fixed and set-up for me!

I accidentally ran into those damn Facebook pictures again and got all bummed.  I promptly un-tagged myself.  I swear I notice some positive changes and I want to focus on that -  not on some stupid pictures.  Hopefully, that does the trick.

Oh - I ordered something SUPER cool yesterday!  Stay tuned ... it's one of those things you wonder why no one ever thought of before.  I'll give details as soon as it arrives!!  Happy almost birthday to ME (it was under $30 too!).

Later gators.
