Tomorrow I’ll be 38 years old. I had this charming concept that for the ten days leading as much as my birthday I would provide myself ten birthday gifts, which might include making something for myself, purchasing things on my wishlist, handling something that had been nagging at me, or taking a long time to pamper myself.
I did not precisely achieve a disciplined listing of indulgences, however I will show you a few of my choices.
1. I am now using this ring, which I had filed a couple months back in a folder called “Stuff I may treat myself to.” I purchased it on Monday as well as it shown up on Tuesday!
2. I took advantage of an invitation from Wacoal to get a free bra fitting as well as new bra. I was pleased to see myself in a bra that truly really fits me. The size they assigned me was not one I had ever considered. Now, I want to purchase eight more. (Maybe over the next eight years?)
3. I got a pedicure as well as checked out an problem of lucky magazine, cover to cover.
4. I put on a bridesmaid dress that I originally used 1999 as well as went to see the film Bridesmaids with two of my own bridesmaids (I got married in 2001) as well as our three partners.
5. At the grocery store, I added Jordan Almonds to my cart as well as ate them in one day.
Can I cram in five much more birthday gifts to myself over the next 24-hours? I believe I much better purchase Indian food for dinner tonight. as well as perhaps I’ll get around to that stitching job afterward.
As for tomorrow, the actual Birth Day, I don’t have any type of particular wishes. I feel like I’m leading a quite charmed life as well as I assumption since of that, I’m not craving a birthday celebration or even a night out with a group of friends. (I understand this is not satisfactory to Heather so I am enabling her to take me to lunch next week at Burma Superstar in Oakland.)
We are headed to a hotel near Santa Cruz for a household weekend with my mother as well as stepdad, which will most likely include a see to the Monterey Aquarium as well as the Santa Cruz Boardwalk. A great fish taco meal, a log jam trip with Julian, as well as taking an afternoon nap with Scarlett are all viable candidates for my self-gifting listing this weekend.
What are some birthday gifts you’d like to provide to yourself? material or non-tangible are both valid.
