The worst part about being sick is feeling sick.
Looking sick is pretty bad too but sometimes that can be a godsend as it makes smart people watch out when nearby. They’ll keep their bullshit from you a few days longer than they were planning. Before they share it and screw up your day.
The problem with me is that when I am sick I can hide it well with HD makeup. But once the make up is all off I look exactly how I feel. I looked like a girl who needs to be in bed. So I did exactly that until this morning.
Determined to come back with a vengeance and make up for lost time, I decided to enlist professional help to make myself look human again. The plan was to stop in to a nearby salon for a manicure pedicure eyebrow wax and then another place for a blow out. I meant business. I meant to forget every bed bound minute I spent shivering and sneezing and running a fever.
Ah.. the best laid plans…
Just when I’m all on my way to making a comeback from a week of being down and out sick and kicked while I’m down ( hella fun laptop issues) I get a text.
A one word sentence.
Pedicure?
From someone that always says Lunch? I got nervous and I said yes immediately.
My waxing and nail painting plans will have to be done differently.
Cancelled appointments and I was on my way for a pedicure with my Maid of Honor. Across the street from her job. Which yes is the scene of the crime.

Next stop – Events during the day. Waxing (and not poetic) in the evening with my Maid of Honor. Love my MOH.

A few weeks ago I went into Natalie’s room and saw crayon drawings on the wall by her bed.
Cleaned it off and then asked told reminded her we only write on paper and not the walls in our house.
Or any other walls – lest I unknowingly am raising a budding graffiti artist in my home.
This morning I went in her room after she left for school.
The crayon was back on the wall but this time I noticed something different.
The writing was now math problems. Simple ones like 6+6 =

And the answers were right. I know it shouldn’t have but that really made me smile.
Awwww, my little girl is a promising mathematician.
Think this time it may be my fault since the printer paper she usually takes off my home office desk was no longer there. No excuse, but still.
I’m picking up some paper just for her to write on this afternoon and will give it to her to her this evening when I remind her again to not write on the walls.

Next stop – Tonight I’m not embarrassed to say I will be watching part 1 of the Real Housewives of New York City reunion special and the premiere of the Real Housewives of New Jersey season. Everyone will be watching those Joisey girls. I can’t wait! Tomorrow I have meetings, meetings, meetings galore before I head out of town again for the rest of the week. Ha! What else is new?!
