Car maintenance. Check.
Doctors appointments. Check.
Furnace cleaned. Check.
Hair cut. Umm..
Pedicure. Uhh..
Facial. Huh?
Oh people... When did we forget about our "maintenance" program? Remember the days when you wouldn't be caught dead with chipped nails? Right now I am sporting the 1/4 painted nails look. As in painted two weeks ago, and all that remains is a 1/4 of the paint. Lovely. There was a time when I had a fresh coat every Sunday and Thursday religiously. Those were the days.
This week we are focusing on the girls-us. It doesn't take a lot to slap on a coat of quick dry polish before melting into the couch for a night of CSI. When you're making your hair appointment, why not make next months, and the following months while you're at it? Stay tuned for lots of tips, tricks, and the God's honest truth, that we don't always follow our own rules. But heck! This is the year of forward thinking and we're in this together. So I'm off to grab my polish remover, and make a list of maintenance items that don't include plumbers, mechanics or anything with the word"jiffy" in the title. It's Mama time.
I love this! I'm a 36 year old homeschooling mom of four boys (10, 8, 5, and 8 months). I used to be a girly-girl, but have let myself go for awhile. I just have been so BUSY! LOL! I've been trying to pull myself back together since the New Year started. I've lost five pounds (10 more to go), treated myself to too much at Clinique, and got a great haircut this week. I'm now inspired to do a mani-pedi this afternoon. Thanks! :-)

I like this post so much.I give some more tips for the skin care like Mix half a spoon of sugar in your regular face wash while washing your face.This would work as a best scrub and you can keep black heads and other dead cells at bay.
