Examples of today's "me" time...

Got my hair trimmed last week...today I got it colored (and my pink streak redone). This is never something I never would have done prior to recovery. I always put everyone else first!

Got the works, so here is the rest!





That's my last pedicure of the year. I had never had a pedicure till this spring. I'm hooked now.

Awesomeness! I also never did sweet things for myself. Thankfully my wonderful daughter "makes" me treat myself.

So, for the beginning of the school year fun hair foils; PURPLE toenails and fun new clothes.

Pedis RULE indeed.

Love that pedi, Freedom

I was hoping for a picture of the pink streak in your hair!

The nails look great, thanks for sharing.

Thumbs up

There have been many changes I have also
experienced in my 22 yrs sobriety. However,
going for a manicure or pedicure isnt one of
them. Nor a massage. I admire pretty
fingernails that are unusally painted or out of
the ordinary decorated with jewels and glitter.

Similar to yours. Good Job

Me, as of the past 6 yrs, 50ish yrs old and
22yrs sobriety, I remarried after 25 yrs, learned
to ride a motorcycle, got my endorsement,
piercings, and many lovely tattoos.

Each day I am sober I look forward to experiencing
many more awesome gifts in recovery down the road
and when least expected. Surprises are always fun.

You can and will too..!

I didn't take a picture of the hair this time, but this photo was taken the first time I had the pink put in!
