I lived alone before marrying, and I find NOTHING "rewarding" about living alone! Nothing! There's an 'ole saying, "No man's an island!" ! I concur!
In my EARLY twenties, I used to think they were "fun"! But after about 35yrs. Old, I found them VERY unnerving!
Many, many, many times! I enjoyed it!
A mother can NEVER have too many "gift cards" to her FAVORITE beauty salon or spa for great massages, pedicures and just plain being spoiled for the day!
