Nail Files. Week # 305


This is Sinful Colors-Dream On. I got it at a grocery store in town. It was marked down 50 % off. I don't have too many Sinful colors polishes. It's not a fave of mine. But I thought this was a pretty color.

Nail Files. Week # 304


I never wear white nail polish. I have some, but usually use them for accents. I've been seeing a lot of people wearing white polish lately, so it inspired me to try it again. I kind of like it, even though it looks like I have white out on my nails. I'm wearing Sinful colors~Snow Me White.

This week I am wearing Loreal~Royaly reinvented. I don't have too many Loreal nail polishes, but I really like this formula. I think I might get a few more.

I actually like the pink hair. I never would get my nose pierced, but it's fun to see how it looks.

Fibro update

I haven't done a fibro update in a while. The past month I have been feeling a lot worse. Not sure if it's the cold weather or not. I've been getting pains in my neck/shoulder blades. More like kinks than aches. I've also been more stiff & moving slower. I've been really exhausted. So I'm having a harder time getting things done. I rest a lot throughout the day. I'm lucky that I'm a stay at home Mom, so I can rest when I need to. But now I am picking Tara up every day from school after 2 or 3 classes (because she has the concussion still). Some days in the Winter I hibernate & stay in all day. Now I can't do that because I have to pick her up. She is taking the bus to school, but not home. So back to what I was saying how I rest a lot. I try to rest & then do stuff around the house & then rest more. It takes longer to get things done, but they get done (most of the time). Not sure if people know, but I love to clean & organize. So I always have things I want to clean, but haven't had the energy lately. I usually rest a lot during the day & then do things early evening. I've become a huge night owl. It's been 3 & 1/2 years since I was diagnosed with fibro & I'm still trying to figure out what works best for me. Things are always changing too. That's what you have to do because everyone is different when it comes to fibro & chronic fatigue.

Mommy & Me Monday


This photo is from last Summer, but Tara had it on her ipod. It's nice to see a happy sunshiney picture with the beach in the background. Can't wait to see the sun & have warm days & be able to go to the beach.

Not a Follower




So tonight is the Super bowl. It got me thinking how I don't like football & don't really care if I watch the game. Do you go along with other people? I feel like I'm the type of person who does her own thing. I don't like a team or a band just because my friends do or my hubby does. We are having a Super bowl party tonight. My hubby & friends are watching it downstairs & I've been going downstairs & then coming upstairs. I get too bored just sitting there watching the game. I'm glad that I am the type of person who knows what I like & what I don't like & can make up my own mind & not be a follower.
