Ok, my hands look really old right here! Aacchh! I meant to make the picture smaller. Anyway, I saw a movie recently with Meg Ryan and other famous actresses in it. It was about women and some of the trials they go through. It mostly follows Meg Ryan's character and how she goes from wearing muted fingernail colors to wearing "Jungle Red." Or rather, going from being content with life to having the courage to do something that is scary yet possibly, very rewarding. So, I decided that, even though I am very happy with my life and wouldn't change the big things about it, I could set some goals and make a list of things I've always wanted to do but haven't made a priority. So, I started with painting my nails of course. This is something I have never been into. I really hate painting them and finding that, in the same day they are already peeling and breaking, etc. However, I figured that it was more of a statement to myself than anything and maybe it would be fun. My little girls actually started it off because they wanted their nails painted and it seems like I am always doing that for them (ok, so I have a hard time clipping them but I do paint them). So, thanks Kate and Ellie for giving me that boost! I'm off and fired up with my "Jungle Red" polish. Wish me luck!

Good luck, fired up lady! Are you about to kill Troy yet, from being home 24/7 in day two of your seven-day imprisonment? lol
Sexxxxxyyy
I love bright colors! When Halloween comes around do florescent orange or green! It's such fun to look down and see those colors on your hands. Don't we walk around like the page of a coloring book just waiting to be filled in? You go girl!!!
Wahoo! I like it a lot! I do the same thing. I have a list of little things I want to do but don't make or have the time. One of them is always painting my toenails. Go figure! I guess I'll go red and see how it works! FUN!
LOVE IT!!!! We need to get out without kids more often :)
