Me Time

I've often thought of the ideal "me day." This is just one version of how it would go.

I wake up fully refreshed in my ever-so-comfortable bed. The sun is just starting to come up and there's that wonderful peace that's present just before the day begins. I lounge around in bed for a while and think about all the things that I appreciate so much in my life--what a great way to start the day: feeling SO good!

I get up, dress in my workout clothes, and do some yoga, just quietly stretching my muscles and improving my flexibility. After that I go outside and have a comfortable walk, just breathing in the fresh air and enjoying the beauty all around me. When I'm finished with my walk, I go inside and enjoy some strawberries for breakfast--mmmmmm, so good!

I take a shower, using some wonderful natural products--my soap, shampoo, and lotion are all of the best quality. I feel so fresh afterwards! Then I dress in casual clothing and hop in my car to enjoy a solitary day out. I go shopping, either browsing or purchasing as my inclination moves me to do. I notice that a movie I've wanted to see is playing at a theater where I am, and even better is that it's starting shortly! I buy a ticket and get some snacks and get a great seat in the theater and thoroughly enjoy myself. After the movie I notice that the perfect restaurant is right across the street, so I walk over and order my meal. And what great food, too, not to mention that the ambiance in the restaurant is ideal!

I go walking some more and then see a masseuse's storefront. On a whim, I walk in and ask if I could have an hour's full-body massage, and voila--I can! No waiting, just escorted to a wonderfully prepared room; I disrobe, lay down on the table, and am pampered for the whole hour. I am so glad I came in and asked; now I know a great place to come in the future--what a blessing!

By now, it's starting to get late, but I have a certain restaurant in mind for dinner; as a matter of fact, this is the only thing that I'd planned ahead of time, as I called yesterday to make a reservation. And what a good thing that I picked this place, because their food is excellent: beautifully presented and excellently prepared. What a scrumptious treat :)

And after dinner, I return home and take another walk out around my property, feeling so renewed and reflecting on the fact that I had such a lovely day because I HAVE A ROOM FULL OF MONEY!
