Friday hodgepodge

I'm blogging this from a chair at a nail salon where I am getting my first pedicure since the disastrous pedicure back in September. I know I'm taking a risk, but god, they need to be done so badly. Taupe. We'll see.

I hate the step where they pumice stone the bottom of your feet because I'm so uncomfortably ticklish. And they don't care if you squirm.

I'm also doing some shopping because we are getting family photos done tomorrow and I have NO IDEA what to where. I realize I should have asked opinions earlier than the day before, but if you have an opinion I'd be eternally grateful. The boys are wearing brown and white and my husband is wearing brown. I'm thinking if a cream top and my red flats but honestly I can't decide.

The lady next to me has a size 12 foot. Mine don't feel so big now.

All I've really done on my vacation is watch Grey's Anatomy. I started season 4 this morning. The season finale of season 3 might have been the worst finale I've ever seen. Ever. That said, I'm really enjoying it, and I blame my watching on Mama Fuss. And my friend Evan.

When I tried to type Mama Fuss, autocorrect changed it to bambaataa. I really worry sometimes about this phone. It has a mind of its own.

Also on my vacation, I took my mom to visit family (drive 2 1/2 hours each way, 3 hours there), picked her up from chemo, went to two baseball games, worked on tent decorations for Relay For Life, and today I worked for 3 hours. And I read one book. But really, I want to get home and watch more Grey's.

There's a woman here getting a manicure who has her two year old girl in an umbrella stroller next to her whining while she has her nails done. I think moms are entitled to get their nails fine, obviously, but couldn't someone take care of that kid for you?

Nails done. Blog done. Happy weekend!

The only pedi I've ever gotten was right before my wedding. All you have to do is LOOK at my feet and I die laughing, so needless to say I haven't been back.

I'm with you on the difficulty of getting my feet pumiced. Ugh.

Yes, the end of Season 3 was bad, but I dunno. I'm seen some pretty awful finales, so... keep watching. I remember thinking that the beginning of season 4 was sort blah, but it gets better.

The photos are probably done by now (my kids had theirs done today, too) but I like the idea of the cream top. Or a white one if the boys are wearing brown and white, but since you're as pale as I am, the white might not work so good.

MF: I wore a bright blue top and gold flats, because jewel tones do work best with my skin color. I kept the boys in white tops with brown collars, and my husband ended up wearing a blue striped button-down with the sleeves rolled up (as is his style). I'll post a few pictures as I get them.

And the season finale for 3 was a montage of that season, with no new storyline. I think that was when they were having all that drama with Isiah Washington.

S: I think I average getting pedicures once or twice a year, and I never had one until I was 27 or so (I'm 30 now). So ... not often. I have terribly ugly feet, so I really should have them done more often so they can be taken care of.
