I am, most definitively, a woman. I have never been a “girly” woman. The most girly I get is the treat of having someone else color my hair for me, and even then, I have a pretty straightforward cut that is easy to style (or not) to keep it all pretty low maintenance.
I am, however, getting ready to go on vacation, and I was suddenly struck with a deep desire to have my nails done, so yesterday after the gym, I stopped into a nail salon and had a mani/pedi and got my face de-haired. I originally just asked for my eyebrows, but then decided to let her do my upper and lower lip, chin and cheeks. Ever since I started using the Nuva ring to help control my out of control menstrual cycle, my facial hair has gone bonkers.
It’s been ages since I did any of that. Add in the massage chair during the pedicure, and I was feeling pretty pampered. And today I have an appointment with my amazing hair stylist who is going to re-green my hair for me.
I’m feeling downright girly!
Since today is Saturday, there’s been quite a bit of writing as well, with my focus once more on the Daughters of Morru book. Toss in some coffee and clothing I haven’t been able to wear in years? Yeah, it’s a good day.
How about you, Readers? What’s on your agenda for this final weekend in July?
