But by all means, work bitch. Slave away for your hourly wage so you can save up enough disposable income to purchase spa visits. I mean, are you fucking kidding me with a 15 hour work day?

Even if it did, I'd rather put the extra towards other causes.

what other causes can I ask??

yeah because we can all afford to go to the spa every Friday [/quote]

[b]Ummm Miss eye roll -- if you planned it correctly you CAN. I go every Friday. It's called a budget. Sorry you can't budget wisely. What are you working for -- just paying bills??

I pay all my bills and still have money for a weekly spa trip and a bi weekly massage and dinners out every day.

Depends

You're such a condescending prick

Sometimes just the different saunas (clay, salt, ice, etc). The whirlpools. Always a nice lunch. Today I had an oil massage and face scrub, it was heaven.
But they do all kinds of massages and scrubs as well has hair, manis and pedis. [/quote]

I find your comments very arrogant.

If I am arrogant - than you are jealous. Sorry I budget wisely and know how to spend my money.

Oh and to the poster who said I was single. Far from it. I am married and we are very happy. Sometimes he joins me at the spa as well when he can.

And before it comes -- cause it will. No he doesn't support me so I can dabble in being a nanny and going to the spa. I work hard for my money and I deserve what I pay for.

So stop being jealous. Figure out your expenses. sorry you can't pay for things. maybe you should have thought of that before. [/quote]


proud to be a bitch? [/quote]

If being smart with my money is being a bitch -- than sure I am damn proud! Since when does being moneywise make you looked down on?

yeah yeah we get it. stop bragging[/quote]

Ah how is anyone being mean?? Please do explain.

I simple told her to take time for herself - what ever it may be.

Than some uppity people on here got all bent out of shape because some can afford something they can't and WOOOO not a nanny a nanny can't have money, a nanny can't take time for herself, a nanny can't afford spa trips. No no that's not allowed.

I was the one jumped on and called arrogant and a bitch.

So please tell me again how I am mean?? Oh right because I can afford things. Right that makes me mean. forgot that. geesh people

That is your own fault. I have a mortage, a car payment, and other stuff but I always have enough left over for me. No I don't have children- I don't have to pay for childcare, if I could have children I would and I would not nanny anymore.

I learned early on to have no big debt (besides car and home) everything is paid off. Life is to short to not enjoy it.

Anonymous wrote:I realize a lot of people are going to say, "it's her own money, who cares???" But from general observation, it seems like women who frequent spa's and beauty salons are also women who aren't ideal relationship partners. Once in a while is fine....4X a year, no problem. but those women who have to "treat" themselves every week or two...those are the women I'm talking about. I bet this girl is def single.....

PP are you kidding me? My MB, most of my married friends go to beauty salons, mani pedis weekly or bi weekly and from what they tell me their husbands appreciate them taking care of themselves. Most husbands, significant others actually pay it like my boyfriend. It is her money and she can afford it. Maybe I wouldn't go as often but I would love to do so..

This nanny is delusional and mean. Why are you telling the pp she can afford something when you don't know her situation.

Even if it did, I'd rather put the extra towards other causes.

In all seriousness, it is nice to be pampered once in a while but I find a hard time reconciling the expense EVERY week. I can give myself a pedicure fairly quickly and pocket the $25 plus tip. The same with facials. I buy the 'do it yourself' glycolic peels which are the same strength that the derm uses and get 5 or 6 out of the bottle for the price of 1 that I would pay for at a spa. I also make my own vitamin C serum.
