It use to be, that to go to a day spa, we had to drive down to Philly, which my MIL would never drive to ... but with all the new development popping up around my way the last few years ... so are the businesses that are also in Philly ..
A couple of new day spa opened around here, but I didn't know much about them so I called my sister to get the scoop since they're over by where she lives.
I hope she likes it because I am out of other ideas for her present
Well I'm off to concur the stores ... wish me luck
We had some marginal spas in town...unlicensed sort of places that I would never venture into.
Then a new spa opened here in town. The woman who does the massages has flown on trips with Rush Limbaugh and another notable whose name I've forgotten; she is much in demand apparently.
Nearly all my women friends ask for gift certificates to this place and get manicures, massages, facials, etc. It's something most of us feel guilty spending $$ on ourselves but it's something we really enjoy. If your mil is like my mother and most older women, if they see something they want, they buy it themselves which leaves us at Christmas time with very little left to buy them.
Good luck at the mall; I have one more trip to make next week...mostly just for fun to listen to the music and watch the kids and have lunch with a friend. Today is cookie baking day with some women in the 'hood.
later...
OK, you computer geniuses, I need a little help. When I got to a website that has .pdf files using my IE, I get the little colored icon, no next, and Adobe reader doesn't load. If I use the firefox browser, no problem. Is this a setting problem? I'd say the answer is to just use Firefox, but I'm genuinely curious as to what the problem is, and how I can fix it. Thanks.
And, GOOD MORNING, everyone. Nully, you up yet? And was that you on the Brian Sussman show (David Gold subbing for Suss) last night? Someone name Nully called in.
OMG! I spent all day in Little Rock. The kids weren't due in till 6:40 tonight (before the delays) so I thought I would do a little shopping. Yeah....very little! I think everybody in the state of Arkansas, or at least all the really bad drivers, were in Little Rock and trying to go shopping. What a nightmare!
I was getting really stressed at one point and as I'm scoping the shopping center out what do I see but a Mexican restaurant across the way. Hmmmmm...so I'm thinking a stress reliever would do nicely right around then so I went over there. After all, I hadn't eaten lunch and it WAS nearly 3 pm. And whaddya know....they knew how to make a blue thingy. So he says to me, "do you want a regular size or a jumbo?" I'm still having an unChristmaslike urge to strangle someone, so I went for the jumbo. I couldn't finish it, but I left feeling a lot better than when I went in. LOL! Oh, and the tacos were the best I ever had!
