Too Little Too Late

I am sitting here sipping on my hot green tea, wrapped in a throw, coughing and feeling weak.  You would have never known I had a wonderful afternoon that included a relaxing back massage and a wonderful facial/massage.  I was sooo relax I almost fell asleep.  I think the only reason I didn't was because I was wondering if my daughter was behaving at my friends house.  They have a lovely home with light colored furniture and rugs.  All I could imagine was her dirty little hands touching things!  I also wondered how the hubby was and was his physical therapy treatment going ok, what would he eat for lunch, were there enough left overs from dinner???  So much running through my head!  I couldn't fully relax.  As a wife and mother I as many others often put myself last.  Girlfriends you guys do it too with your significant other, kids, families and work!  They both were sick with colds and I dealt with that plus the regular household things I normally do.  Well now I think its my turn to slow down and recuperate.  My massage came too little, too late!  It was a wonderful birthday gift from my German friend who thought I could use a break.  I must make time for me more often.  When I do this I must also leave the worries at the door!  Relax fully and enjoy my hour or two of total alone time!  Well lesson learned!  

Here are a few shots from the Day Spa, I wish I could have taken a few more!  So beautiful and peaceful in there but I would have been looking like a tourist for reals!
