Spa day? Go for it! Indulgent? Very! Over? Not at all! After the year
you have had, you deserve it.
Tell your sister that you'd rather plan your life yourself. <g>

I think that as it is your birthday a spa day sounds wonderful. To stretch
your birthday out to another extra day (lol, see I do try to help ;-D) you
could plan to have a special dinner for you and Don and the girls.

I'm a great believer in celebrating the other 364 days of the year (365 in
a leap year) as "un"birthdays as well! We have more of them than birthdays
and it seems a shame not to take advantage of it. That's what I call
lateral thinking!
