Bridget Jones gets whiplash.
My Saturday morning started out with whiplash.. no, I didn't get into a car accident or anything... I went to a great spa in West Ashley (Urban Nirvana) and had an hour-long massage called "the Whiplash." My neck and shoulders have been bothering me lately, so I decided to treat myself to a trip to the spa. Boy, was it worth it! When I looked at myself in the mirror after the massage, I laughed out loud because I looked drunk! Ha ha! Now that's a good massage!
You know, there are days like today when I truly appreciate this city of "Singletown" I live in. I won't lie -- I can't wait to meet my future husband and start a family one day. It's a desire of mine, and I'm looking forward to that time in my life. But I also realize that the day will come when an hour massage will have to be sacrificed because diapers, formula -- and maybe even a soccer uniform -- take precedence. So I've decided that while I'm single and I have the opportunity, I'm gonna milk this baby for all she's worth! Last night, for example, I took a hot date (myself, that is) to Marble Slab. (I even opened the door for myself! Hee hee!) And I treated myself to some creamy caramel ice cream with chunks of fresh banana mixed in. Then I came home and ate my ice cream, played my guitar, sang really loud and just had a blast. It was the best date I've been on in a long time... :)
You know, God's Word says in Ecclesiastes that there is a season for everything, a time for every purpose under heaven. And I thank Him for this season in my life: a time to enjoy my own company, pamper myself... and eat lots of Marble Slab!
From my heart,

said... And one day you'll look back and say, "Gosh, I'm so glad I took time for me." You'll learn so much more about yourself and become very comfortable in your skin. It's a great season to be in!
I loved it when I was there!
Love ya!

Christina said... I got the extended version of the whiplash story, and I AM JEALOS! I want whiplash! LOL ....
Im enjoying quiet moments by myself too and have to say, it's very cool to spoil yourself sometimes, just because you can and for no other reason! Jesus is the best husband ever because he not only lets me do it, but encourages me to do it more! Does it get any better??
