Week 3 - 5 point challenge: ME, Me, me...

For this weeks five point challenge I want you to take a bit of time for yourself. So whether you take a nice long bubble bath, get a main pedi, go clothes shopping I want everyone to take some personal time this week. We tend to be so focused on all the other variables or life that the one thing we leave for last is out own personal tlc. Take ATLEAST an hour this week for yourself.

Reply to this thread with what you did for your personal getaway and how long. In order to earn five points you must complete challenge for at least an hour. The hour CAN be broken up into two half hour sessions if need be HOWEVER for anyone who is able to take at least the full hour to themselves will be awarded two extra points at the end of the week.

Enjoy your alone time ladies, you deserve it

I took advantage of this today as my boyfriend is fishing with friends and it's my rest day! I took a nice hot shower and am now catching up on a few DVR'd episodes of Four Weddings

Looking at about 2.5 hours of "me" time!
I know it may not seem like much but it was just right for me!

I do this every Thursday. It's game night for my husband so while he's occupied, I do whatever I want. Usually I read a book and sometimes watch one of "my" shows that he doesn't care for. I get 2 hours of "me"time every week and I look forward to it. When they're a player short, they sometimes ask me to play. Most of the time I pass so that I can have my alone time.

I am so glad this challenge fell on a weekend that my daughter was with her dad! When she is with me I feel like I get no "me" time. Other then homework and house work, this weekend will be all "me" time! Going to get my facial and catch up on some long pushed off scrapbooking and catching up on life with my sister

Might even enjoy an extra long hot bath EVERY day this weekend

Enjoy your "me" time ladies, as I know I will!!!!!

The district where I teach at has a snow day today. I'm taking full advantage of it! I took my dog on a long walk to play in the snow and am currently under a blanket on the couch with a good book. Living in a southern state, we don't get many of these opportunities :-)

Well I completely took advantage of this and had a 90 minute massage today. I'm feeling pretty good now :-)

Yesterday I went shopping at a local greenhouse (beautiful scenery and temps in the middle of winter!) and bought some supplies to come home and make a terrarium - yah for winter gardening!

After working over 60 hours this week I could not have planned this challenge for a better week. I am dedicating not only this weekend but next week as well to putting myself as my main priority (especially because its my birthday week!!!)

This weekend I refuse to answer any work related calls or messages.

I slept in until 11am and was also able to take an afternoon nap

I spent the day with my sister, we got lunch and she tried sushi for the first time.

I said f-it and had two cupcakes from a new cupcake shop that opened up in town today.

I enjoyed a two and a half hour gym session with my sister. After not working out all week it felt great to get back into the swing of things.

I plan on getting my nails done tomorrow, and going to get my next tattoo with my sister some time this week seeing she will be turning 18 on Tuesday. I plan on dedicating more time to the gym and making sure that I am eating right, working out and taking the necessary steps to losing the rest of the weight I want to lose. I plan on applying for jobs related to my career aspirations and have decided I am not going to wait for these changes to happen but make them happen myself. My week of being extremely overworked was an eye opening experience as to how I always allow things or people to become my priority over myself and I think that needs to change. ...end rant...

I finally went shopping for new workout clothes! Actually, I will be buying some new running shoes also since my half is in April!

I went to the beauty salon and had my brows and hair done. I really don't know how to pluck my eye brows so I go to a professional. It was so long ago that I did my brows that I had a unibrow thing going on.:blushing: I use to do my hair once a week, but with Zumba going on it was like a waste of money. My best friend, who is also my stylist, gave me a keratine treatment so my hair doesn't gets frizzy so fast.
