There was a TV show that first introduced me to the idea of a treat yourself day.
It was a comedy and so this episode was all about some of the funny ways the characters treated themselves on treat yourself day. Well, it all really resonated with me. That’s how I started going to the cannabis dispensary. Prior to the idea of a day of treating myself, I was all about doing all the stuff I needed to do for my family. And that’s exactly what I want to be doing by the way. I love being a professional, a mother and a wife but it can spread a person pretty thin. So the idea of having a whole day where I did nothing but treat myself really became appealing. These days, I give myself one of those days once a quarter. And there is no canceling due to other needs or whatever. Treat myself days are written in stone says my husband. The state next to us has legalized marijuana. Both medical marijuana and recreational marijuana are now legal there. So I start by booking a nice hotel room for two nights. Typically, I leave the night before since it’s a three hour drive. Sometimes I take a girlfriend with me but I’ve also found that the solo trips can be quite pleasing as well. The first thing I do on my treat day is to head to the cannabis cafe. There I’ll indulge in the best coffee ever as well as the best cannabis edible I have ever put in my mouth. From there, I let the day just unfold but for sure, I treat myself all dang day.
