I had a very lovely day yesterday. Dominic was in good hands with my mom so I could really relax.
They had a Starbucks right next door so of course I had to get my fave, a caramel mocha frappaccino light. Yum. I went in at 11:00 and first thing was my pedicure. My feet were soaked, cleaned, loofa'd, soaked, masked and wrapped, soaked and mosturized, then I had bright red polish painted onto them (that was E's request. He loves red.) Next was lunch and I had a rolled sandwich from a little deli next door. It was very good. I was hoping I wouldn't be too full for my massage and I wasn't.
THEN came the salt sea glow scrub and massage. Oh, oh my! The room was so comfortable with soft music and candles. I was self conscience knowing I was going to be nekkid and having some stranger rubbing on me, but I had a chance to talk to the massage therapist and explained that to her. She was completely sweet and understanding. She rubbed my neck, shoulders, back arms and legs with sea salt and a pretty smelling oil. It felt like all the dead skin was coming off my body, especially my back, since who can really reach the middle of their back when washing? I washed off in a little shower and then back on the table and I was massaged until I couldn't lift a muscle. When she asked me to turn over, I was barely able to, I almost ended on the floor. Ha, wouldn't that have been a sight!! She massaged my face and ended with my feet and that's when I woke myself up with a little snore. It lasted about 90 minutes and was too short for me! It was that wonderful.
After that I had my hair washed and styled in a flippy do and my make up done. It was a little more makeup than I'm used to, but if I were going out for a evening date it would have been really pretty.
Before my appointment I was nervous and self conscience, but that was for not. All the girls were pretty, yet not perfect looking models. They were all so sweet and accommodating, asking if I needed anything, bringing me magazines and drinks and the time between the pedicure and when my lunch arrived they all sat around with me and bs'd about guys and hair and cars (the girl who did my toes was a weekend race car driver!) I left feeling so pampered and spoiled. It was great.
I thought I would walk out feeling greasy and oily, but I just felt soft. And this morning all the oils must have totally soaked in because when I hugged E he said "Wow, you are
really soft!" Hee hee.
I would highly recommend such a day for anyone. I saw how much it was and it wasn't really that expensive, and the package was a lot cheaper than if you were to buy everything separate. It was worth every penny.
I kept thanking E for such a wonderful gift and he was so happy that I loved it. He mentioned last night that perhaps I will go again some time. Woo hoo, I hope so!
