I have a day off coming up when my children will be in school/childcare and l am going to do something for me, although it’s not a spa or getting my hair done or anything like that.
I’m going to pay someone to
Clean my oven,
The inside of my windows,
The carpets and do a deep clean of my kitchen and bathrooms.
I work full time and have been having a big declutter lately and feel like l am on first name terms with man at the tip. Even though it’s not something lovely and relaxing it is something for me as it will make me feel mentally better. I might also get someone in to do the garden for two hours and get my car valeted. If l had time l think l might get my hair done but l don’t think l could fit all that in really. My friend and my sister think it’s a silly idea and a waste of money as l could do it myself. The thing is every time people give me birthday money l always spend it on stuff for the kids or the house as l don’t really “need” anything, my sister says this isn’t the type of thing she thinks people want me to treat myself too. l think it would give me the best nights sleep ever. I am also unsure about weather l would tell my husband l paid for it to be done or just pretend l done it myself and win some housewife points.
