How to spend time on yourself without feeling guilty

haggishunter

My husband says i should spent 'me time' on myself and also treat myself.
On boxing day in the sales i bought some no7 beauty stuff and no7 vanity case with makeup and makeup brushes etc which were half price, and felt guilty. :huh:

My daughter knows i have been under a lot of stress since end of september. Stress can trigger a sezure.
So why do i still feel guilty today about what i bought.

I prefer spas to shopping.  You can really pamper the hockey sticks out of yourself in a good spa.

Don't be guilty, lassie,  a dinnieken a quine who doesn't like to pamper herself.

Why don't English people ever speak English?  It's bad enough that you don't speak proper American English or even the lesser Canadian English.

:P

An American would say "tom A toe".
An Englishman pronounces it Correctly. :P

You say tomato, I say tomato.  Obviously, I'm right.

You are.
Come on, pamper yourself from time to time.

I have a guilty pleasure as well. I just can't stop myself, even though I know I shouldn't do it, I sneak off and partake in my 'hobby' whenever I think I can get away with it.
I have to lie to my wife about where I've been and make excuses to go out but I think she knows what I get up to.

Just think you are "spending" your time more than "wasting" it. Make sure you are "enjoying" while you are "spending" too.

need to spend time and money on "ME" as hubby keeps telling me

haggishunter
