Weekend Recharge: Indulge in a Guilty Pleasure

Confession: Watching Sex & the City reruns with a pint of Haagen Dazs Butter Pecan & a Spoon while flipping through People Magazine is my guilty pleasure.  This often occurs while wrapped up in my favorite blanket made by my Grandma Phyllis while my husband is out of town on business.  We all have them, the guilty things that make us feel so good but that we don’t want the rest of the world to know about.  That’s why we don’t let ourselves do them very often but when was the last time you just let yourself indulge in whatever little thing makes you happy?  Maybe it’s eating peanut butter out of the jar or maybe its reading stacks of old magazines while drinking a glass of wine or maybe its playing video games and cracking open your favorite college brew.  Whatever it is, give yourself permission to indulge for just a little while.  It takes the pressure off and lets you think about something else for a little while.  You wont be sorry.

Have a great weekend!
