Me Day!

May 1st, 2013 at 02:50 pm

I'm having a me day today!

In other words, I'm treating myself a little. First off, I bought my airline ticket for a week-long vacation in Florida with my son. This is the son with the 5-month old daughter so I'm super-excited to be able to spend time with her, uh, them. That will be in July, after the new fiscal year gives me some vacation time!

I drove to work, partly to avoid the problem of parking on a street-cleaning day, but also so I can get a pedicure during my lunch hour. Yes, it's sandal time, and time for the toes to look good. Then after work, I'll get my hair cut at Great Clips -- have a $7.99 phone coupon for that -- and then I'll plan to spend some time at Goodwill. I'm sure I've shared that there is no Goodwill in my new hometown, but there is a great one in the town where I am still working. I plan to really look it over.

I will be picking up something for dinner, too.

This Saturday promises to be busy -- I am going to a fair at my grandson's school, seeing my new doctor for the first time, and will also try to check out a huge rummage sale that my DIL told me about.

My nephew is graduating with an MBA next weekend. I have been invited to the celebration lunch, not the graduation (limited tickets). However, it is a three-hour drive away, and I think I will opt out. I will send him a card and a check, because it is quite an accomplishment for him. He started the program when he was unemployed, and kept with it after finding full-time employment. As the father of four kids, he has been super busy, but I am proud of him for sticking with this.

    Hey CB--I thought of you this morning when a Chicago friend told me she got a free muffin at Corner Bakery from their e-mail list. I suspect you know about this, but here's the sign-up address if you didn't.

    Me days are definitely needed once in awhile. Smile
