QOTW - What have you done for YOU?

Here we go, this is a weird, random one.
When was the last time you did something purely for YOU?

I cut my hair.

I cut 6 inches off my hair like 2 weeks ago!!!
(I did it on the spur of the moment, I'm not really liking it - but it'll grow back!! - and it needed a major trim - the wind blown effect had really done it some damage!)
But doing something for me - funny how difficult it is to remember doing something for me. My husband frequently questions things that I do and who I am doing them for. He doesn't seem to realize that I might do something for myself.
Ok, I do go to my sister-in-laws occasionally for a massage. She also does Reiki and I have had her do that as well.
Funny thing - the thought of doing something for myself seems to invoke feelings of guilt. Like I'm not supposed to do something for myself - I know that's wrong, but I'm trying to recognize all these little feelings that I get so that I can begin to feel again. I shouldn't feel guilty about taking care of myself. I used to though. Even taking a shower (years ago) - he was able to get me to feel guilty for taking showers? WTF was I ever thinking? I remember we were on vacation, I had taken a shower and was drying and fixing my hair, he says to me "why are you fixing your hair?" - What a stupid question! He wouldn't go out looking messed up - why should I? - Ah the memories, aren't they a wonderful thing!!
Thought provoking QOTW Gabby - thanks!!!
