Growing your nails

Are you a nail biter or picker? Do you wish you could grow them? Well I am one of these people. My mother was a nail biter… and I seem to have gotten her bad habit. Up until i got my braces when I was 15 i bit my nails…. these days I just pick them. Hence they aren’t pretty, long or strong.

So I am setting myself a goal… that by my birthday in January I will be well on my way to having healthy and beautiful nails. As a reward for this I will book myself into a day spa for my birthday to get a manicure, pedicure, facial and back massage. Sounds like heaven to me…

I will keep you posted on my progress.

Thanks for listening.

Cindy.

Reflection on priorities in life

{ October 16, 2009 @ 11:58 am } · { Articles, Business Related }

Isn’t it funny how until you need to use something there is a tendency to let it slide. Like for example today I brushed off the dust of my Writers Resume man was I horrified at how out dated it was. Considering I want to apply for a freelance writing job, this was not a good thing, but moving right along. The good news about all of this is the fact that I can now update it, refresh it and all going to plan get another freelancing assignment.

 

As much as I want to be able to concentrate on my personal projects, that’s not realistic … especially as at this stage they aren’t bringing in that much money… food and a roof over my head is a very important part of my life.  Hence why I went looking for my resume, so that I could update it and give it a fresh look. Which in turn will supplement my income until a time in which I can afford to live off the profits form my personal projects.

 

This brings me around to other things in my life that are important. My boys and my own happiness are very important to me. Therefore I have to priorities the rest of my daily tasks to highlight this. But how do you do this?

 

When I write my daily to-do-list I ask myself what I want to achieve that day and how it is going to benefit my priorities.  There are days where I get it all done, and then there are other days that the tasks keep coming and the list gets longer. When this happens you may need to look at your task list and re-prioriteis.

Looking after you lips

Like the rest of your body you need to look after your lips. Your lips quite often need tender loving care, after all you use your lips to talk, to smile, to kiss as well as to express how you are feeling. They deserve the TLC.

 

Regularly use a lip balm with a SPF to give the lips an environmental barrier.

  • Every so often give your lips a lip treatment.
  • About once a week exfoliate your lips, with either a lip exfoliator or a clean tooth brush.
  • Choose a lipstick that has extras, such as Vitamin E.
  • Avoid sucking or biting your lips.

What are your lip tips?

Have a question email info@cinhar.co.nz.
