reinvent myself

I told myself to stop making excuses and get a pedicure. My feet needed the attention, and I needed the relaxation. I keep putting it off because “I haven’t gotten enough stuff done” to justify the reward. Bull! I get out of bed every day, never show up late to work, make sure I never come home to a messy room, always keep an organized to-do list, and have made leaps of progress on my financial situation this summer. So after preshipping my luggage for next week’s wedding (why lug it to the airport when FedEx will drop it at the door for me?), I went to the Nail Salon in the same complex (cause you know there’s one on every corner!) and finally got them done.

That felt so good!

I’m not reinventing as much as updating and maintaining the things that get pushed to the side when I get busy.

In the past week I’ve:
-bought new shoes; stilettos! (The only clothing purchase I’ve made since February)

-started wearing makeup again

-finally had my eyebrows waxed again. I love doing this, I just haven’t had the chance.

-painted my toenails

-and am dying my hair right now. Which is another favorite activity.

all that’s missing are a manicure, pedicure, and facial.
