      I totally agree! I used to have regular wash and blow when I was working because I had really bad migraines especially on Sundays 😂 .
      .

      Waaah! So nice! (Not the migraines. But the regular wash and blow dry).

      But my swish swish moment lasts at most a day before it gets washed out and I wear my flat shapeless hair once again. Lol.
      Sama sama! Now I'm trying to stay in air-con environments as much as possible! Want to avoid having to wash my hair! Let's see how cool I can stay...

      Now to plan my next Me Time escapade...getting ideas from this thread!

      I loved going to those \"Auntie salons\" in my neighbourhood. For $12, I received a really good wash and blow, with a strong head and neck massage thrown in. Shiokness.

        Buds,I am sorry to read what happened after u got home. I sincerely hope it is not a regular occurence and that your dh have since apologise or try to make ammends. Anyone will be tired of giving one- sided support. Do draw the line somewhere.

          It was a big fight. I was lucky cos he seemed to almost want to strike me physically. It was bad. The girls were crying.

          :nailbite:

          I wanted to reply when I read this but I don't know how to console you.

          Actually still don't know what to say after a day 😓 ... hopefully 雨过天晴 already?

                  Had me time today..

                  Went for gel manicure and classic pedicure as usual..
                  They suggested that I top up my package as there are only a few sessions left..
                  My reply (while flashing my broad smile): There are so many competitors around, I would like to source for other options before I make a decision :siam:

                        SBKS, the me time though which I thought I initially quite enjoyed was not worth the aftermath. Like you, I always believe me time does good for the body, mind and soul & I've always been the one encouraging him to have these me time. To run (within neighborhood and event events). I waited for him at the finish line (for a few hours) during one SunDown event in wee hrs of the morning bearing cool isotonic drinks for him n his friend. I encouraged him to pursue photography (he was pretty good at it actually) for aesthetic pleasure and also peace of mind. I encouraged him to join music competitions when I realized his band was pretty good. I just believe in supporting him in the positive things that can act as a breather off from work.

                        It's ok I didn't get the same support in return but I am happy if he's happy. Today marks the day, I'm officially drained from being the only one giving one-sided support, encouragement and suggestions.

                        I doubt I would be having any more me time anytime soon, so u guys take care. Take this thread back to how it was supposed to be... the sharing of all our me time. :please: I will continue reading all your sharings and bask in them, share your moments liddat la. Ok? 😉
                        ok understand. we are in the same boat.

                        Now am trying to practise what I learnt from the 5 love languages book and hopefully, what we are doing is filling up our spouse's love tank.
