A lot of people here are stressed, overworked, and exhausted. What have you done for yourself lately just to take a break?

If nothing, what can you do in the next week to spoil yourself a little bit? Put it on the calendar! You deserve it.

Maybe a bubble bath with one of my new books.

Tonight I took a bath. The first bath since living in this house, and we even have a giant master tub. I lit my favorite scented candles, popped open an Izzy, put on Il Divo, and just laid there for 30 minutes. I think it may be a new Friday ritual. It was really wonderful.

It was great. Unfortunately until December is over I don't think I will be as stress free as I could be.

Happy Birthday @emtmissy! Hope you have a great time celebrating with your friends and family tonight!

I needed this...literally I have not been away from DH and/or C since end of March (which was for a friend's bridal shower). DH and I were just talking about this this morning when questioning where we want to move (if DH is going to start working a ton of OT then I'm open to him finding a job closer to my dad/step mom so I would have help/get a break every now and then...also it's where we would prefer to live but is so much HCOL). Anyways, I need a haircut and I have money for a spa day (which I'm saving for when C is weaned and plan to go ALL day). Haircut needs to happen soon bu will likely be after thanksgiving.

I have taken showers solo during this time...i've found that having a nice (sometimes longer) quiet shower is nice rejuvenating time. I usually have DH watch C between dinner and bath time a couple days a week to make this happen.

This morning, I gave the baby to DH, took a bath, and shaved my legs.
Next week, he's going to daycare on my day off so I can get housework done. Next week will be difficult to find time for myself.
HOWEVER, I have a haircut scheduled for Dec 5, and I plan on a mani/pedi that day as well.

It's actually today so your on time! Thank you!

The party went great! The Mac & cheese bar was a hit. Thanks for asking! I got some nice gifts but I honestly just wanted to spend time with the people I love. Now I have to start planning H's in a few weeks.
