Well, I broke down and took someone special out for breakfast today. ME! Didn't call up a girlfriend; hubby was at work; the girls were in school. Ran some errands early this morning and was driving by a diner when I thought "Hmmmm....it would be such a treat just to have someone make me a big breakfast!" So once my Jeep started entering their parking lot, I HAD to find a parking space. There was even one up front, near the entrance, waiting JUST for me! LOL
I started feeling guilty, thinking I should've called a friend to join me. Thought of the kids and how I was feeling sneeky to escape being "just a mom" for a while. Rationalized my dining out against my hubby going out for lunches with vendors and such.
I read, checked emails, looked out the window at cars driving by.....ahhhh PEACE!
Oftentimes as women, we get so caught up in making everyone else feel comfy, cozy, and just plain ol' taken care of..... that we forget ourselves. What have YOU done special for yourself lately? Do share!
