A Thursday in My Life

One of the things I like to indulge myself in is getting pedicures.  I had never had one before we moved to Singapore (13 years ago). That's where I was introduced to the magic of having someone else paint my toenails and give me a foot massage. Heaven.

I found a place here in Smaller Town, Minnesota that offers good pedicures for a fairly reasonable, not outrageous price. (I am willing to pay someone to paint my toenails so they don't look like a 5 year-old did it, which is what it looks like when I do it myself.) This morning I indulged in one more pedicure before my poor feet are tucked away for the long, long winter.

(Side note: When I tell people about my blog I usually tell them they'll learn more about me than they probably really want to know. Today's post is a perfect example. A-hem.)

Today's color is a nice fall color, kinda orangey-brown with sparkles. I don't remember the name of it because, have you noticed the names of nail polish lately? There are names such as I'm Not Really a Waitress, You're a Pisa Work and Meet Me at the Star Ferry. (Any of my readers know where the Star Ferry is?)

My feet are happy now and will likely have to wait five six seven months until spring for their next indulgence.

I spent the afternoon writing an email to a high school friend. I haven't seen her in a long time and like to be able to reconnect even if virtually. That first sentence in this paragraph implies that I spent the whole afternoon on the email. I really didn't. After I sent it I realized I forgot to ask her the question I wanted to ask her in the first place. Oh well. I'll just ask the next time.

I also wasted spent some time this afternoon trying to figure out how to get Three Stars on the Angry Bird game on my phone. Google it if you don't know what that is that I spend way too much time on but it's fun. (Great run-on sentence there, huh?)

For supper tonight I thought a mixed cultural meal sounded yummy. I made Fried Green Tomatoes (a little southern USA) and Fried Rice (a little Asian). The meal was finished off with a HoneyCrisp Apple for a little Minnesota.

So that was my Thursday. You're welcome.

(Rachel, dear, I want you to know I wrote this post just for you since you told me you like to read my blog and keep caught up on our lives. I hope you weren't too bored. Love you and your family!)

(For my other readers, Rachel and her little family are living in China and showing the Chinese people God's love. Read their blog and be encouraged. They are amazing.)
