What'll I Do?

While soaking in a nice bath yesterday morning, I realized with shock and regret that I haven't had a haircut in two and a half years. And, I know it's been two and a half years because I was 7 1/2 months pregnant with Bryony, and my mother was in town when together we went to the local salon for a total spa treatment, complete with full-body massage and haircuts. Delicious.

But since it takes a good 3+ hours for the young students at the teaching salon to wash, dry, straighten and cut my hair, I haven't afforded myself that luxury since Bryony's been born, but more particularly since I've been a single parent. Which got me to thinking...what am I going to indulge in once Adam is back in town?

So, I started a mental list that I decided to jot down, partly to share with you, but mostly so I don't forget to do them when I have the time (and built-in childcare) once more.


--Haircuts!

--Massages!

--Yoga classes!

--Resuming "relations" with my husband!

--Coffee dates and shopping trips with friends (sans baby)!

--Volunteering!

--Baths by myself!

--Time for reading, writing, and anything else I might want to do in my "alone time"!

--Most importantly, quality family time with Adam AND Bryony...!
