Everyone needs one!

Today I indulged myself. For my eight years at BAH, I got a gift certificate to a spa. Today, I finally used it. Leah and I both got one and we decided to pay a little extra for a package. For me, it started out with a facial. I'd never had one before and it was w-o-n-d-e-r-f-u-l. She told me when she was finished that I had excellent skin and to keep doing what I was doing (I make my own products). Yay-me!

After the facial, I had a glass of champagne. Then, I went in for my mud cocoon. What??? Well, they sisal-brush you off, put on a layer of mud with lavender in it, then set a canopy over you and steam you while they massage your head. I can't even begin to tell you how good this felt. Leah said I crawled out of the room.

We then went to Magnolia Cafe for lunch and I "crawled" home and took a nap. It was a good day.

Wow, sounds fantastic. I've always wondered what all those other body treatments are like. I'm usually craving just a plain ol' massage. I still have a GC for a massage that I haven't used yet (got it 6-7 mos ago). My problem is finding the perfect day to use it. I don't want to use it, get all relaxed, then come home to the demands of motherhood. I need to find a whole day away from the kids so I can stay relaxed after the massage.
