Beautify yourself

I have my nails manicured and color my hair. --zoe27

Take a day off

I let myself be sick on Saturday. My dear husband pampers me, and I sleep in. --emjv

Get a massage

I treat myself to a 30-minute appointment with a massage therapist. --smalltowngirl_cissy

Take a vacation

My husband and I seldom get a chance to be alone, so this weekend we packed off the children with Auntie and went out of state. We did some leisure shopping, caught a really good movie and went for long leisurely moonlit walk. I came home re-energized and happy to see my children --cl-chrystine99

Relax in the tub

I prepare myself luxurious baths, with soft music and scented candles to set the relaxed atmosphere. Sometimes I use herbal concoctions or organic orange peels in my bath water. Then I slip into the tub for relaxation and therapeutic time alone. --crystal.clear

Connect with a loved one

I call my Mom on the phone. Email is really great (on the long distance bill), but sometimes I just need to hear her voice. Sounds funny coming from a 46-year-old, but it really is true. --jcvp
