You may think (ok, know) that I am totally crazy, but I just took the most amazing shower ever. No naughty thoughts here people. Before I was ever married and certainly before I became pregnant, I had no idea just how much of a luxury taking a shower was.
I remember a conversation that was had at a family dinner once. It was before Al and I were married. My dad had asked Al if I still took those 30 minute showers and wasted all the hot water. (That was no joke. I really did.) Al replied back with something like....no she doesn't. But she still wastes all the hot water. When ever I shower with her, I almost end up in mckennan's burn unit. (Also no joke. I like it hot!) At this point in the conversation, my Mom's eyeballs about popped out of her head. I told her not to worry, we wore our swimming suits. :O) All though I am sure she knew better, that is what she wanted to believe.
Any how, the past 8 years or so, I have always felt rushed to get in, get out, and get the job done. Someone always has to go to the bathroom, etc when it is my turn. Since my toddler came along, I really feel rushed.
Tonight, it is just Colter and I. He has been fast asleep for over an hour. I got in that shower, and I didn't have to worry about a thing. I took almost a 20 minute hot shower. I got in a good 10 minutes of just standing under the water and relaxing. No interruptions. It was heaven!!!! Thank you Lord!!!!

Good for you!! If I don't get a shower, it takes me hours to wake up.
I bet that was an awesome shower. Good for you in taking some time for yourself! I'm sure I'll know exactly what you are going though later on in the summer :)! From what I hear I'll be lucky if I will get a shower daily..he he! But I'm looking forward to it :)!!
What is time to yourself. I don't have that with my toddler yet. And there is the possibility that we may be adding another. Anyways awesome for you. I would like to go and get a good massage one of these days. Sorry I haven't commented in awhile. My toddler prevents that.
I definately need a shower right away in the morning to wake up. I get in and out rather quickly because I would rather sleep until the very.last.second before getting ready for the day.
YEAH for your hot shower!!!
Nothing better than a nice relaxing shower!! Glad you were able to steel that time away for yourself!!
I am a shower girl too...I love nice hot showers. They feel great!!
Love the swimsuit comment!! I am sure your mom believed you on that one.
