Relaxation Day

Since I am working all day tomorrow I decided to take today off and enjoy a nice relaxing day. Mike had given me a spa gift certificate for Christmas so I figured today was a good day to use it. I just got back from an amazing facial, massage and pedicure. I have to say I am a little jealous of women who do this on a regular basis. I am so relaxed from the treatments! The only thing I don't like about spas is how they try to sell you every product on the shelf. I have purchased way too many foot scrubs and toners to know I'm not really going to use them. Luckily this spa was pretty low key and didnt push it too much so I walked out without spending any extra money.

Now I am hanging out with the dogs on the patio enjoying the gorgeous weather, eating a Panera panini and drinking some Choco Vine. Next thing on the list is to do a little laundry and some cleaning while watching bad tv. Yes, I even make to do lists on relaxation days.

Two things I learned this week:
Playing Twister with your little sister is a challenge when you have three dogs curious as to what you are doing. Lots of face licks, getting knocked over, and the spinner being stolen is involved. Definitely not for beginner Twister players.

Even though our community is considered a "working" community there are way too many people at home during a workday. So either everyone has off, everyone is rich enough not to have to work, or the economy sucks and everyone is unemployed. I'm going with the last statement.

Hoping you all are having as relaxing a day as me. :) You can brag tomorrow while I'm at work.

Random Thoughts

First a confession, I am reading Lauren Conrad's young adult novel L.A. Candy and I hate to say it but I am really enjoying it.  So much that I will most likely read her sequel and any others that come out in the series.  We all have to have our guilty pleasures, right?  Actually it's to the point where I have Tess Gerritsen's new book waiting for me and I don't want to stop reading this one- Tess Gerritsen is one of my favorite authors and I look forward to when she publishes a new book.  So it is kind of scaring me that I am not super excited to drop the current book and lunge into Gerritsen's new one.  What are my literary interests coming to?

And another confession, I have had my Droid X phone for a few months now and I was super excited to be getting it, but do you think I have used it to its full potential yet?  No.  I have limited myself to reading email, blogs, facebook posts, and newspapers.  Why am I not taking advantage of all the cool apps?  Tonight will be download a bunch of fun apps on my phone night since I need to justify having such a great phone and using very little of its capabilities.

This Saturday I am taking the little girl I mentor to the Palm Beach Zoo and I don't know who is more excited about this.  What could be better than spending the day at the zoo especially when they just got an exhibit of koala bears!  Be on the lookout for lots of pictures of the adorable animals.
