in Caring For a Spouse or Partner
DH has been letting his hygiene slide. Fewer clothes (especially undies) in the laundry. Rarely showers. So, on Valentine's day, I gave him a "spa day." I sold it hard all day. Spa Day! Spa Day! Do you want your spa this morning or this evening? Before or after dinner? We have a large Jacuzzi tub, so I filled it with fragrant bubbles. After his bubble bath and exfoliation we moved on to mani/pedi. I think he enjoyed it, so it may become part of our routine.
