Q & A : How long does it take you to …

June 26, 2010 by Sheila | A B & Me 6 Comments

do your nails?
Do you clean and push your cuticles everytime you change polish?
If doing swatches for a couple of nail polishes (full set/collection), do you still apply base/top coat?

I just realized that I have been spending a lot of time doing my nails lately. I try to do them as perfect as I can (and failing most of the time! LOL), that’s why I don’t feel like changing everyday. But I have a handful of polishes now and there are still some that I have not used so I feel pressured to use them all. On top of that, I feel guilty of buying new ones (its hard to resist, especially if you have enabler friends…yes, Sol, Pam, Smile and Mindy…I’m talking to you)

I’m rambling, I know. I kinda lost my point there. LOL. I just want to know how you do it. I’d love to hear from you guys!

Hey there! I’m a mom of two who loves to crochet. Balancing work and motherhood is crazy, but I handle it with love and humor. With my eldest entering her tween years, the chaos just got a whole lot more interesting!

I’m fueled by coffee and dream of working from home. When I need to chill, I turn to my trusty essential oils. They’re my secret weapon for staying sane in the madness.

Join me for mom life, crochet, and my journey to work from home and retire before life passes me by.

    @Original_Wacky, wow! 15 minute mani? Wish I could do that. And of course, I would love the two hour break…but I’d enjoy it more if somebody else was doing the mani for me…total relaxation! Right?

    Hmm, I’d say that if I hurry, I can get a decent mani done in 15 minutes. If I take my time and do the whole shebang, it’s more like 2 hours. I definitely lean more toward the two hour mark, I really enjoy the time spent, and it relaxes me. It’s also one of the only times I can just sit and not be running around doing chores.

    I’m going to have to check I guess. Maybe it does take me a lot longer than I think. 🙂

    Hi Susie!Thanks for dropping by. I’ll definitely join your giveaway. Will post in a while. BTW, an hour… that’s the whole thing right? I mean cleaning, pushing, buffing, painting etc?

    @Mindy, 80 Mins… I guess that’s just about right. Still.. I feel its taking me too long. 😀

Sometimes the best memories aren’t from big adventures but from the simple moments—like game night in a cozy cabin, laughing until our stomachs hurt. We booked our Big Bear stay through @airbnb and @avantstay gave us the perfect backdrop for a weekend full of fun, comfort, and family time. Definitely one for the books.
