What women do....

.....so probably like most wives and moms, I spend more of my energy on my family than on me. Hubby has no issue with buying stuff for the boat/fishing, but I don't think of things for me....with that said, I decided that this summer, I am changing that. Aside from the normal bills that swimming money goes to, I am saving money to get lazer surgery on my eyes (I am SOOO blind without glasses/contacts) and I am getting the lazer hair removal.

I've already started the process and it isn't that bad....not a barrel of fun, but ok for the time it takes. Currently, I'm working on my underarms and lower legs. Bikini will come, but this is an expensive process and I need to save my pennies. Did my underarms first and have had my second treatment. It has gone well, except for the hives I got on my legs. Had to go in the other night b/c of it. Just so you know, hives itch like the dickens and look like crap!!! But, with a little Benedryl cream, I'm all better now. Was told that this could happen each time; I'm one of the random, "lucky" people that this sometimes happens to. Joy, joy!!

With as much time as I spend in the water, this is my treat to myself. I'll eventually do the bikini, and that will be terrific!!!
