Family Fun (nails)

  I have showed you how staying home can be just as fun as going out when it comes to hanging out with my kids.  This Friday was another day at home.

  Nail party!  Now granted I try very hard to discourage my son from getting his nails done.  He usually gets a smiley.  This week he was an active painter.

Per his request to use yet another of my birthday presents I received; I accepted his offer to paint my toes.

He selected my colors which involved alternating colors on each toe.  

He took his job very seriously and painted each toe with precision.  He showed great patience and dedication. 

I then painted my daughters feet!

She selected purple and gold.  She always likes alternating colors.

Finally I finished my hands! After all the time it takes to paint nails or have them painted requires a lot sitting still so I was on my hand to finish up.

Pink and gold for me!  

One thing I noticed from this activity was the attention to detail.  The television was on but my son didn't pay attention to it. He was doing something he wanted to do and nothing else mattered.

Such a fun evening at home!  How was you evening with your family or kids?

Monday

  Today is the start of a new week.  It started out just as nice as the weekend with 70 ° temperatures.  Working on an easier blog format for your comfort as well as mine.

  Today I thought a lot about goals and how I need to make them reasonable.  You can make 5 goals or 2 goals and if you can't cross anything off it seems like a hopeless case.  However to make a list and checking off everything with ease is not a perfect match either.

  I started with 3 goals and one is not even for today!

1. Paint my nails (I removed polish last week due to surgery so I'm ready to repaint and get back on glam track!

2. Finish a book. Oh for the love of patience and devotion to just block out everything and complete this task!!!! Been working on it hard and maybe I will not go to bed until it's done.... stay tuned!

3.  Make a goal for tomorrow.  Not cheating at all.  Keeping it within reason.  I didnt list things I knew I would finish.  I didn't list items that are not a challenge.  Making atleast one goal a day ahead will make me more productive.

  Stay tune for my update later.  I could of should have painted my nails while reading my book but I guess that was too easy so after an event I have tonight I will be burning the midnight oil!
