A while back I posted about mommy's needing to take breaks, and that you shouldn't feel guilty for doing so.  It's for your mental (and emotional) health.  Thus, a "Mental Health Day."  Granted, not every time looks the same. I may only have an hour to work with.. or as in the case today, three.  
So that meant I had time to include two of my favs: 
Step One:  A pedicure. My first time with a darker color, for fall. 

What was funny about step two was what I did before it.  I got done with the Pedicure about 30 minutes before Taziki's opens (11 a.m) so I had some time to kill.  I decided to park my car in the parking lot and walk over to a neighboring store and peruse the "stuff" but then I caught a glimpse of my UNIBROW in the mirror (I swear it seemed like it had grown to this)..
So I  decided to pluck my eyebrows instead. 
So I  decided to pluck my eyebrows instead. So there I was, in my van (ALONE.. ahhhhh) with the windows down (beautiful sunny, breezy day) with Jack Johnson playing and plucking my eyebrows.  I was just sure that somewhere someone was going to have a Facebook status update: "there is a weird lady sitting in her car plucking her eyebrows..music blaring.  Seriously?" 
But to me.. it was heavenly.  
After lunch, I went to pick up the kids and headed back for naptime.  Which is Step three for a MHD.  
I had a lot of fun and I look forward to the next Mental Health day!! 
What do you do for MHD?  Or what would you want to do?
