O L P

This one is for women only and I mean you: the hard-working, multi-tasking, putting everyone in front of you type women. DO SOMETHING FOR YOURSELVES.

Every week, at least once a week, I plan an OLP. That's Old Lady Party. No, I'm not old I just like the flow of OLP better than.........LP. An OLP represents my not-to-be-interrupted for anything ME time. I deserve it.

Why do I deserve it? Like you, I am working in and out of the home. You know what THAT means. I work 40 hours at a job (not a career). When I leave there at 11pm, I go holler at my mom who is in a rehab facility. Then I come home and do household crap: cleaning, cooking, cleaning and sex, if he's lucky! Wow! All that leaves me as one tired sister. And on weekends (what weekends?) it's back to the rehab facility to pick up clothes and to deliver freshly laundered AND ironed ones.

So once a week I throw myself an OLP with food, drink, music, travel,....just WHATEVER I WANT, because I deserve it. Ladies we all deserve that me time to preserve that peace of mind. I highly recommend it.

Peace!
