Tammi's World

It SHOULD have been wonderful.....

There are few things that I really "TREAT" myself with. I don't get my nails done. I used to get facials on a regular basis, now those are the things of day dreams. I haven't bought new clothes in over a year. Yeah, my treats are few and far between.

So this weekend I just went ahead and *DID* it. I gifted myself with something that I just love, and haven't done in, well, a long long time.

I love a good salt scrub. Really. There is not much I've seen that leaves your skin feeling softer or more pampered than a good sea salt scrub. And I bought a tub large enough to last a year.

I could hardly wait to get home and take a shower. Didn't matter that I took one just a few hours ago. THIS was special.

So....as soon as I got home I started the shower. Now, I keep tellin' y'all I am a creature of habit. And I was so looking forward to the scrub that I didn't think about what I was doing.

I wash my hair. And then put conditioner in and let that work. While that's happening I grab the razor and did my shaving.

Then I open the fragrant tub of sea salt. I started the scrub with my arms and worked my way down. As I was singing along, enjoying the experience all of a sudden the only thought in my mind is "WHAT THE HELL?!? PAIN! OW!! OW!! PAIN!! BURNING PAIN!!!

That would be when the sea salt was being SCRUBBED onto my freshly shaved legs.

Luckily the red marks have faded by this morning so I don't look like some kind of red blotchy freak, but still....who DOES this stuff? Seriously......
