Tuesday, I went to my doctor’s appointment for my 3-month check-up instead of postponing it like I normally would have done. There had been a tech error with my prescription last time. Between the pharmacy and my doctor, they ended up filling my B/P prescription twice. So, I did not need to see my doctor to get a prescription re-fill.
I went for my appointment ANYWAY so I could talk to her (my doctor) about how things have been going since Mama passed. I got a chance to get some things off my chest. She asked how I was doing, she listened as I un-loaded, then she gave insightful and helpful suggestions. In the end, she said for me to call her any time, for anything, even just to talk.
That was one self-care thing I did this week.
I finally did it just for me!!!
Yesterday was my birthday, Happy Birthday to ME, Yesterday!
It was a wonderful day!
My daughter, treated me to a beauty shop appointment, got a fresh new hairdo. She got her daddy to pay for the both of us as a birthday treat for me. He did, no questions asked.
Back at home, the Mister cooked supper for me. He surprised me with my favorite Mexican foods, tacos and nachos. Desert? Yaaa, Sock-It-To-Me cake!
Oooo everything was soo yummily delicious. What a wonderful way to end the
day . . .
Full, Fed, & Satisfied!
Thank you, GOD for all your Blessings!
Sounds like you were thoroughly pampered, as it should be:-)
Suggestions welcome. :)
kitchenwitch, how are you doing today/tonight? I hope you are able to “get pampered” soon. I love that idea, thank you for sharing it with us. Keep us posted!
OH pamzimmrrt, what a wonderful day! It IS NOT a waste at all, making memories is always fun! AND, it’s one of the BEST “self-care” things we can ever do.
Well ITRR, Thank you for the “Happy belated Birthday” good wishes! I really appreciate that. You are so right, I felt totally and thoroughly pampered. It felt soooo GOOD!
WOW Sherry3, 2 caregivers for 3 consecutive days AND having 12 hrs away from caregiving?!?!! What a TREAT!!! You’re so right, this is PURE JOY.
Hi, Cashew – Reading that you got your woodstove installed made me smile. Brought back memories of my childhood and our woodstoves and wood heaters. I've put off many things too, so I understand. Good for you!
