It's All About Me

Today is Indulgence Day.

For whatever reason, good or bad, I'm not revealing on here. But today has been a day of Indulgence. Doing anything that pleases me. Hedonistic? Yes. But I needed this today.

For brekky, I had a slice of caramel cheesecake.

For lunch, I had a chocolate muffin, a latte plus a leisurely stop at Border's self-help section. This was followed by an hour and a half of getting lost in a great book.

Afternoon tea was an hour and a half of full body massage with aromatic oil.

Dinner was an hour and a half at church followed by a good bottle of red. With matching house music while doing laundry and a whole lot more of self indulgence.

It's not wrong to expressively love oneself. Even for just a day.

Retail Therapy

I might submit a new claim to the Medical Journals out there - retail therapy is a more effective anti-depressant out there. Ok, ok, I might be exaggerating here and yes, I don't have any studies or laboratory tests to back up my claim but will personal experience count?

The past few days and weeks haven't been my best. I've been trying to re-evaluate my life and find the meaning. The realisation that some friends out there may not have your best interest has not been pleasant at all. So going through the motions whole week was the M.O. until Alanna sent me the email about the Peeptoe Shoe sale. Say that again? YES, Peeptoe was having a warehouse shoe sale. Finally, something to pull me out of my lumpy, dumpy mood. Needless to say, I feel better now.

Gorgeous aren't they?
