be gentle with myself

Took a long hot soak in a bath with wonderful-smelling Kneipp salts: it’s made me feel a lot less achy (although I’m still just as sneezy! oops).

Gave myself permission to leave work early, feeling puny. Got home & slept about four hours straight, so I think it was the right decision. wry grin

Enjoyed a manicure & pedicure (spoiling myself!). grin

Treated myself to a nail polish change, using that terrific metallic copper color on both fingers & toes, since it looks so great! smile

I took gentle care of myself by sleeping in Friday morning (day off) when I awakened with sinus pain & a headache, thus pacing myself so that I could manage my responsibilities for the rest of the day.

Enjoyed a manicure & pedicure (spoiling myself!). grin

Taking antibiotics & pain meds for a tooth-crown issue (arising at a time when I can’t get in to see the dentist, of course): I expect I’ll be sleeping most of the weekend…. wry grin

Today I treated myself to a nail polish change; I again chose the metallic copper color for both finger & toe nails. They look great! smile

I took gentle care of myself with a nice nap after supper, pacing myself so that I could manage my responsibilities on a busy day.

Enjoyed a facial & a manicure/pedicure (spoiling myself!). grin
