Pampering Weekend Kick-Off!

Many of our friends are going on an awesome cruise to see our 5 favorite men. We are not. We are the #noncruisers! We held our ground and said "no" to the many offers of cruise openings (even if we could only make out a whisper when saying "no" because we wanted to go so badly). And we deserve a reward for that strength! Soooo....


Let's Pamper This! ;)


I want all NON-cruisers to plan SOMETHING to do for the weekend of May 14-17 that is JUST FOR YOU. Something to pamper yourself. Anything that will make YOU happy! Here are some ideas:


- Massage

- Pedicure

- Manicure

- Hair/Makeup appt

- Reading a book ... in silence

- Getting some extra sleep

- Visiting a coffee shop and JUST RELAXING

- Sitting in a massage chair at the mall for longer than 5 minutes

- Watch a chick flick with your favorite glass of wine

- Take a long hot bath


Anything that focuses on you. And MAKE AN APPOINTMENT to do it! That way you have something concrete to look forward to! And its just ANOTHER reason to NOT go on the cruise! "A cruise opening? Heck no! I have a date with a massage chair that Saturday!"


I know my state doesn't have many Blockheads left who are NOT going cruising, but if you can find other BHs to go to the spa with, DO IT! Enjoy each other's company if you can! But if you can't, KNOW that you are not alone! You can relax knowing several of your sisters are relaxing and pampering themselves too!


I'm also going to add a SUGGESTION: Do not listen to NKOTB during this activity. The point is for the focus to be OFF of the cruise. But this is just a suggestion.


Feel free to brag all about your upcoming pampering on Twitter! It might give others ideas about what they should do. When you are done with your pampering, share it on Twitter! Tell us all about it! Show us your nails or your hair!


I also say that all of us at home on Saturday night should grab our favorite beverage and settle in to Twitter and have our own party! We can drool over cruise pics and chat about our pampering! Let's tentatively plan on starting at 10pm EDT, 9pm CDT, 8pm MDT, 7pm PDT. Early for the West Coast and overseas, but what can I say... I'm an Eastern time zone peep! ;) Saturday night is also Pajama Night on the cruise. Feel free to Twitpic you in your PJs that night! :)


Comment here to let us know what you have planned! If we come up with any special NON-cruise chat rooms during that weekend or if I hear of any other activities for that weekend for non-cruisers, I'll post them here.


Now, get to planning your pampering!!!

  1. God love you Heather for putting this together. :o)

    So far my pampering actually consists of going to my hometown to visit some good friends and have some fun. :o)

  2. I have finals the weekend of the cruise, calculus 2(friday) and physics(saturday), so I am definitely joining in on the pampering. I think I may turn my room into my spa and treat myself to anything I can think of.

    Does anyone know of any good sites to get recipe type things for home spas?

  3. Love, love, love this. I was thinking I needed to do something during the cruise to keep my mind off it and not go nutty.

    Can't wait to non cruise with you all!!
