SOOOOO Worth the money!!!!!

Well I haven't written in a while so I figured it was time to update. I have been so busy lately. It has been insane. We are leaving to go to Gulf shores in about 3 weeks and there is so much I have to do before then! First of all, I have to get a tan. I am usually really dark but havent tanned in a while so I am laying out everyday until then. On top of that I have got to go shopping. I don't have a choice. Nothing fits! This is a good thing though. I have lost about 40lbs so far and 3 dress sizes so I am really excited about going shopping so that I wont have to go naked to the beach...lol..j/k. Also everyday until we leave I have to work out every single day!!! That is a must! I've been trying to keep a variety going between Tae Bo, Jogging, Walking, Kickboxing, Cardio Blast, and Pilates. But I am extremely motivated and I am not backing down..lol So anyways the real reason I am writing this blog is to tell you about my day so far today. For our wedding anniversary in May, Daniel got me a spa package certificate for Smart Skin Day Spa in prattville....BIG MISTAKE on his part...lol...cause I am officially going back once a month now. I went in today for my 1 hour full body relaxation massage. I get there and meet my massage therapist who takes me into this dark tranquil room. She tells me to take my clothes off and lay face down on the table and she will be back in a minute. I should mention there is soft music playing in the back ground. So I did what she said and climbed onto the table and since she didnt come immediately back I looked around a bit. There were candles everywhere and a fireplace (not lit of course) and rose petals around the room. Well she came in a got right to work. She did legs, back, neck, asked me to turn over, then did neck, face, shoulders, arms, hands, legs, and feet! Absolutely amazing....certain techniques just stripped me of my tension. I have never been so relaxed without medication. After she was finished she let me get dressed and then offered me lemon water and food and gave me a thank you letter with a coupon for my next visit. Oh and there will be a next visit!!
I am so glad that I did this! I felt a little wierd about paying that much for a massage when Daniel can give me one at home. (Thats why he had to buy it without me knowing :)) but let me tell you, this is nothing like what you get at home. These people are trained and know exactly what to do and how to do it. They have two other types of massages: deep tissue and hot stone. It is only $65 for a one hour relaxation massage which is so worth the money...I promise! I would probably even pay more. So I told Daniel on the way home that if he would send me there once a month then he will never have to give me a massage...Of course he jumped at that offer. So now I just can't wait til next month. I will be going back next week for the rest of my spa package...I'll let ya know how that goes.


So in Conclusion everyone should have a professional massage at least once in their life!!!!
