I thought this prompt would be a bit of fun but judging by some of the comments I've had it seems that it wasn't so easy for some people! I really wanted to see what it was in your life that gave you happiness, 'me time', a touch of luxury or put you in your 'happy place'. So far I only have 3 photos to share but I'm hoping lots more will arrive in my inbox later today.

Indulgence … hmmm this prompt was a bit tricky for today. I worked today and there were very few indulgent orientated photos to be taken at work! After work I picked up Emma, zipped her home to get changed then zoomed her off to basketball – still no indulgent photo opportunities! I knew we were having left-overs for dinner … nothing indulgent there. So…… after basketball Emma & I went past our new house. All the formwork is up for the second storey of our house (wooo hooo) so against all the notifications on the scaffolding, I climbed up the scaffolding and stood where the second storey will be and took some photos!!! This will be the view from our upstairs balcony…aaaawwwww such a lovely serene view. The white roofed house (behind the pine tree to the right) is on the foreshore so that’s how close we are to the beach- yeeeeeeehaaaaa!!! So …. my very little, teeny tiny, miniature, minute, miniscule piece of indulgence today was checking this view!!!

My indulgence is a long soak in a deep, aromatic hot bath while reading a good book. It has been a few years since I have been able to indulge but I dream of the day when my joints are a bit more bendable and let me jump in our bath or even better, for when we win tattslotto and we get to install our very own spa bath...
and on the very same theme... my photo for the day! To be honest I am really not a girly girl, the whole day spa thing doesn't appeal to me, I find going to the hairdresser a real chore and massages are not my thing either however I am so glad we put the spa in our ensuite when we built this house. I never realised just how much I would love it but I try to find the time at least once a week (or two) to fill it up and sit back with lots of bubbles, candles and a good book... this time I even had the glass of wine... mmmm indulgence! This is my idea of 'me time'...

Your new home is going to be perfect when it is finished Janine and it is fun to see it growing along the way :)
Kim - we are definitely wired the same, I've never had a massage, never even been tempted to go to a day spa but I confess that it is nice to get my hair washed at the hairdressers every now & then.
I am tempted to fly over and test out your spa bath for research purposes, just in case we do win tatts and I can order an
extension just for the spa!!!
