Sometimes I find that I need a girl's day out, but there might not be girls available. It used to bum me out, but one time I decided to embrace what Rachel Green strives to do in an episode of Friends.
I called it "A Date with Me."
I went to the store and bought a treat (I chose chocolate) and magazine (Better Homes and Gardens), and I headed to the nail salon to get a pedicure. Pedicures are rare, but this was a special date with me, and I treat me well.
Then I got lunch from my favorite place (nothing expensive), headed home, and I popped my favorite movie in to watch while I did some crafting.
It was a marvelous day, and I felt refreshed afterwards.
I realized sometimes it's nice to enjoy your own company.
