Welcome to A Special Place


Our world is ever changing and fast paced. We are faced with a crumbling economy, the ever impeding threat of terrorism, and natural disasters. We're bombarded on a daily basis with noise, traffic, groceries, work, school, parties etc. We seldom sit and rest our minds anymore. Even more seldom than this, we rarely hear or see anything "good". I don't know about you, but I think it's time for some breathing space.

You have come to such a place. Take your shoes off, put your feet up, grab a cup of tea, coffee or water (for people like myself who should be banned from caffeine) and take a little break.

This Made Me Laugh Out Loud - What a deal!

If any of you really know me, you know that I love to laugh a lot. I have a very comedic mind and things make me go "What in the world?" all the time. I've been avoiding putting those moments here for a while, but now, I will let you in on some of the giggles I've been getting this week. (Yes I know the week has only begun, but I see stuff every day).

I was checking my emails today and I had to chuckle. I get notices each day for daily deals on line that are offered by local vendors/business. So far I've seen some really cool ones, like sailing on the SF Bay with a view of the Golden Gate Bridge. I even got one that I jumped on for two movie tickets from Fandango for $8.00. Who can resist a $4.00 movie ticket?

Today the email read "Manicure+Facial+Foot Reflexology" with an offering price of $30.00 (a 70% savings). I decided to give it a gander. My standard practice is to open the deal, if I like it, then I will check it out the locale on yelp.com (because I don't like special surprises when I get to a place, especial nail places), and then decide it it's worth my bid. I was unable to get past the heading because the deal had an alternate deal if the mani facial footy thing didn't work. You have the choice to have this package:

"Brazilian Wax and Foot Reflexology" for same cost. WHAT THE.......

I can just hear someone now....you know I really don't need a mani and facial, I need some other stuff attended to. Wish they were offering a Brazilian.....REALLY?

Do they do the waxing and then the reflexology or is it the other way around? How does that work? In any case I have decided to pass on the deal all together. I am just saying.

Enjoy your day and remember to laugh! It makes us live longer and look so much better.

What's the deal with brazilian waxes anyhow? Why turn back the pages of puberty?
