You have my vote on this one! Can't beat the price (FREE).

Additionally, I also like to purchase something I consider an extravagance such as something from Coldstone.

Every 6 weeks, I like to go to the barber to get my hair cut AFTER finishing all my errands and chores for the day, as a way to reward myself.

I've never tried a massage but want to make sure it's a legitimate place that's not a front for something else. From what I've heard from others who've had massages, however, they sound wonderful.

How is waxing the least bit relaxing or pampering?!! Wowie!

I do get a massage every 2 or 3 weeks, but they are not relaxing massages - they are therapeutic deep tissues massages that leave me drenched in my own pain sweat...the point is that they get rid of my back and knee pain (I don't want meds or surgery). I love deep, hard massages, but this lady has torture down to an art form.

I will get a facial every couple three months.

I enjoy my shower very much.

I like sitting in my bathtub with a glass of wine and a good book in the winter.

I like sitting in my pool in the summer, drinking margaritas and reading (or playing with my swimming dog).

I LOVE driving my car...pure fun.

I love to cook...and then eat it.

I buy myself a perfume that I like once in awhile, and take myself out to have pho once a month (my favorite food). I feed myself healthy food and treat myself to a dessert food. But for the most part, just making myself look the way I want to look makes me feel pretty good.

LOL, I was just telling my husband the other day that I must be wacked because I was zoning out while being waxed the other day...and I do Brazilian. It's relaxing. I guess I've been doing it long enough that it just doesn't hurt.

This is one my favs, although I drive a truck/suv. I live to drive. Always have. And it's a plus if my kids aren't in the back...that way I can pump my tunes.



Others for me:
*spa pedicure - I love the massage aspect of it.
*shopping - for anything!
*getting my straightened, cut or blown out. - I love when people play with my hair.
