Ladies, get out your nail polish

I just realized this morning that it is now warm enough (at least for today) to wear open-toed shoes. BUT, that means it's time to get out the ol' nail polish, and have a go at those seasonally neglected toenails.
I'm not a make-upy person at all. In fact, I think the last time I wore full-on make-up was at my wedding seven years ago. But I just can't let myself go out of the house with bare toenails showing. Okay, 'can't let myself go out of the house' is a drastic exaggeration, but I do prefer that they are painted. I think this year I might even branch out and get more than one color.
I'm really terrible at painting my toenails, but I couldn't help but notice that I was able to a much better job than last summer since I have no baby belly in the way. I laughed as I thought of last year when my dear, sweet husband would try to help out his incredibly un-sexy pregnant wife by painting her toenails for her. Oh, what our husbands do to avoid the hormonal wrath!
And now for my artsy attempt at a bottle of nail polish...I just don't like to post without a picture...

I was just thinking the other day that I need to do that soon.

You're too funny! I do not even want to look my own feet since they have been so neglected, except when I do clip them. How sweet that your hubby painted your toenails for you!!

It's called a pedicure... I can't paint my toenails at all! I have to have someone else do it. Around here its pretty cheap (20 bucks)... plus it's nice me time.

I hear you momma! I am a super freak about my toe nails. I actually will not leave the house without them painted. And, yesterday was our first flip-flop weather day, and I painted them the night before to get ready. I also had to shave me legs (at least up to the knee) so I could wear my capris. Ughhh I hate doing that. So time consuming. But, I do love a set of cute pink or red toenails. So springy!!

It is not even close to being open-toed season here yet, we are expecting snow on Friday, yuck. I am so jealous. We did however have a wonderful day yesterday, but it was just a tease.
