Maybe you just do not need a bouquet of flowers, candy,
and or a bottle of your favorite wine to put a smile on your own face.
Sometimes you want something a little bit more personal than you can always
hold on to for the years to come. Maybe you have overlooked card shopping, but it
may be something you may want to consider doing for yourself. I am not talking
about a gift card.

That is up to you, boo. I am talking about a "sentimental pick
me up card." The card you buy for yourself does not have to be a Hallmark card.
Just whenever you get an opportunity to head out to Target, Walgreens, Walmart,
or even Dollar Tree take a walk down their card aisle and find one for
yourself. We all can use a self-encouragement, self-love, or thank you card
these days.
I think it is also a thoughtful act that counts. Taking your time
to choose a card that makes you smile, laugh, or even feel warm on the inside
is worth the effort. I am going to be doing more card shopping from this moment
on out. While I was in Walgreen's on a quick beauty pick up, I wanted to
get a card for myself. My husband was even surprised when he saw that I bought
a card.
He immediately asked if I was dropping hints that he needs to do
better. I told him no, I wanted to do better for myself for a chance. You see, even
as a married woman of almost seven years, self-love, self-care, and appreciation are all traits that I never want to lose sight of and to ever stop practicing. Celebrate
your wins no matter how small they may seem and put a smile on your own face
without feeling the need to overspend.
Let me know if you will try or have ever purchased yourself
a "just because" card. If you haven't, maybe you may want to try it out and keep it somewhere to look back at it.
