    Unhappy Talk me into it!

    Next weekend my FIL and step MIL are having a party where a professional photographer will be taking photos. Because i look so washed out i decided that i wanted a whole make over. So booked myself in to get my hair done and laybyed a gorgeous dress. Ive bought new make up and tanning stuff to cover my horribley white legs!

    My hair appointment is on monday and i get my dress on tuesday so i am getting serious mummy guilts! Which i ALWAYS do whenever i spend money on myself.

    I'm spending $230 on myself and i feel awful about it! I keep thinking its too much to spend, we can't afford it (which we can as ive budgeted for them), the kids needs things and generally i could maybe wear something i already own and use a DIY dye kit.

    So please talk me into getting them and allowing myself to be spoilt considering it'll be a while before i get to do it again.

    you have to look after yourself before you can look after other people?

    Talk me into it!

    Do it! You can always look back at the pics and remember how nice it felt to spoil yourself especially when money is tight in the future
