Therapy Thursday

Some days you just need to take some time for yourself. Self-pampering can be extremely therapeutic. Even if it's just 20 minutes to yourself to read the paper or a book, go for a quick walk or take a bath. It can jump-start a good mood. The other day I needed a little "me" time. I had just done a lot of cleaning (four litter boxes included), so I treated myself to a bath and a book. Our bathtub is in our hall/kids' bathroom, where the above picture, Max the Very Clean Cat, hangs on the wall. It's a good reminder about taking the time to do things for yourself, isnt' it? It also cracks me up, as well as every guest who has used that bathroom. I found it in CrazyBliss, who has got the best shop announcement I've seen (talk about a pick-me-up!). Now back to my bath - I also lit a serenity candle from DavesHomemade. Ahhhh. Now that's some crazy bliss.

  1. That picture is hilarious. I used to take baths regularly because I would get sick from stress, but I have not treated myself to one in a while.

  5. It's Friday morning, so I thought I'd check out Therapy Thursday!. I didn't know you got that cat picture from etsy! I'm off to read her announcement. Oh, and next time you take a bath, do what I do and have a nice cold glass of OJ on the side. Or what Jeff does and have a nice chilled glass of white wine. : )
