(a follow up to my Cheap Therapy post)
I'm not sure this falls under the category of cheap but I feel it is in the overall big picture. A few days ago I scheduled a massage for Friday. It ended up being good timing because I was sore from yard work on Thursday. Also since I was recovering from a cold, I like to get a massage to get all the toxins moving along and out of my body. I went to a new therapist. It went fine. I think it was good for me. I felt better. The next day I had to go out of town with my daughter for an event she was attending. Though the town wasn't anything exciting, I realized how I missed traveling or at least getting away. I've written before of my love of traveling. Due to various circumstances I have not been able to leave as much as I use to or would like.
It hit my while I was driving that for about the same price of an hour message I could get a hotel room (week day rate) for 1 night in several of my favorite places within driving distance of home. My husband has encouraged me to get away from time to time. In conclusion: massage was solution #4 but I have a feeling that solution #5 - getting away will be more therapeutic.

I have a GC for a massage laying here on my desk that my hubby gave me over a year ago. The place is in Winston, so I haven't had a chance to take the time to drive over and get it yet. He keeps hounding me to, so I need to follow your lead and just DO IT.
Getting away is a great way to relax, if you don't spend the whole time worrying about the hubby & kids and all the stuff you should be doing at home instead. Or so I've heard. : / I used to go to Westglow once or twice a year. It was heavenly. It's been MUCH too long. I highly recommend it if you're in the mood for some real R&R.
