As a mom I have recognized over the past three years how important it is to have my very own “happy place.” We all need a break from the dirty diapers, wiping up spills, runny noses, and temper tantrums. Being a stay at home mom I don’t usually get much time to myself. But when I do, you bet I take advantage of it! A hot shower alone, a 30 minute nap, or the opportunity to get a pedicure are just a few of the things I appreciate more than I used to. Whether your happy place is a hot bubble bath, a glass of wine, or even a day of shopping – everyone should have one!
One of my happy places is the ever so relaxing spa. While I don’t use the spa for the typical massage or facial, I do enjoy an extensive pedicure and manicure. In fact, each year my mom and I indulge and gift ourselves the “ultimate pedicure.” You may have read about this in one of my other posts where I described exactly what the “ultimate pedicure” consists of. This is considered the most luxurious pedicure including exfoliation, a healing mask, heel therapy, and the ultimate massage to go along with it. It also lasts a long 80 minutes! Pure Bliss. If that doesn’t sound like a happy place then I don’t know what is!

My happy place is shopping (even if I don't buy anything, I just like to walk around and look at stuff). My other happy place is when I get a night to myself, I like to put Friends (show) in the portable DVD player, sit it on the bathroom counter (safely away from water) & laugh at it while I soak in the tub lol. I usually do both of these in one day, when I get a chance 🙂
