bubble bathWhen the kids are finally in bed and the dinner dishes have been done, it's finally time for me.  I have a few precious moments to spend on myself.  A smile comes to my face as I wander into the bathroom and start to fill the tub with warm water.  It's time to pamper myself with a bubble bath.  Which scent fits my mood tonight?  I make my choice and slowly pour the thick rich bubble bath under the running water.  The bubble bath explodes into a million bubbles and the tub fills with the warm earthy scent of my bubble bath.  I sink into the water and melt into the warmth and all the cares of the day are gone.  My mind wanders to a quiet peaceful place where there are no noisy pets, no messy faces and no dirty laundry.  My bubble bath has transported me to a place that is tranquil and still.  Before long my mini vacation must come to an end.  I reluctantly pull the plug and my bubble bath has ended, taking the worries and stresses of the day with it down the drain.
