Hello! Good Morning and how are you? 
It's FRIDAY!! you made it! How was your week? What did you do for you? 

It was treatment day for me yesterday and I'm still feeling a little wobbly today so I'm taking a ME Day...a day to focus on myself and my needs, doing what I need for me to feel better.

Have you taken a ME Day lately? Do you need to take a ME Day? It's okay if you do...your needs are important too. I only hope you'll take the time to do what you need for you to feel better.

Will you?  

Here are a few of the things I do for me when I take a day to soothe my needs and care for myself...
​

I wear only comfy clothes...sans the torture chamber society calls my bra...I listen to my music...the songs that make me feel good and the songs that make me want to dance...and you know what? I dance! even if it's an awkward back and forth two step in the living room...I let the music move me. It's pure therapy. I have a favourite blanket that I use too when I take my needed nap. I look for the things that tickle my funny bone...even the sarcastic side of me needs a laugh too once in awhile. I have a soak in the tub with bubbles and I read a book for as long as my concentration will stay with me. There are days when I've even given myself a mani-pedi with scented creams and even a facial too. I've spoiled me doing the things I don't do everyday...doing the things that make me feel good...and the things that make me smile. It's a ME Day and my needs are on the menu and until I feel the shift...I don't stop. Oh..did I mention I partake in a guilty pleasure of allowing myself a little treat too?...and yes it's often chocolate :)

And you know what? doing this does not make me self-fish. It does not make me lazy either. What it means is that I love myself enough to do what I need for me. I am allowing myself to heal one small day at a time. ​And you know what else? you need time like this too...time just for you...time for your needs... YOU need this too! So nosy me wants to know...when will you do it? 

take good care of you eh?
