Keeping Up

In an effort to keep up with myself and my little home, I have been taking some extra measures this last week.  If you remember my post from 2 weeks ago you know that I am so busy and have not had much time for pampering, primping, or even really getting ready.  So far, this is what I've done:

Got my nails done.  It's amazing how something so simple can make me feel so put together.  The husband was so excited for me that he made a special part of our budget just for my nails!  I'm so thankful that he cares!
I didn't watermark this picture because I knew you all wouldn't steal my creepy happy hands in my face pose.

Cleaned out my drain.  I have enough hair for 5 people on my head.  The average person loses 80-100 hairs a day, and they don't usually come out until you shower or brush.  Since I have TONS of hair and don't shower or brush daily (you curly haired girls know what I mean), I loose about 30 million hairs every time I shower.  
Because of that sad dilemma, we always have a bottle of hardcore Drano around.  Thank goodness.

Letting my husband help.  I am pretty particular about the way that I like things done and cleaned and organized.  However, I sometimes get just too busy.  Last night, Billy told me to go upstairs and shower and he would clean the downstairs.  I didn't want to watch him do it (he didn't want me to watch him, either), so I followed instructions.  I'm sitting downstairs now, and it doesn't look half bad.  In fact, it looks great.  I should let him help more often.

What do you do to relax/pamper?  I can use more ideas, now that I'm on a roll!

Miscellany Monday @ lowercase letters

  4. Love the nails. Yea I sure do know what you mean. If I washed my hair every day it would be a dry frizzy mess, not to mention I'd lose my mind from all the time I'd spend blow drying and straightening... ugh.

    Your blog is looking gorgeous, Ma'am... you're super talented :)

  8. Glad I'm not the only one with the hair dilemma! My hair is long & curly, & the shower drain is grossly embarrassing! :-/
    We get compliments on our hair, but ohhh it's pain sometimes! : )

  10. You've made me want to go get pampered! ha! I'm thankful that my hubby is okay with spending a few bucks to allow me to get pampered too. I painted my toenails the other day it made me feel so much better...I had neglected them since flip flop season ended. Justin even complimented me on them...that makes it even better. :)

    Oh the hair thing...I get blamed for every clogged drain. Even our sink drains in the bathroom get clogged from me brushing and straightening my hair over the counter.

    No fun!

    Happy Monday! Love your weekly fave addition..so fun!
