A Memoir: A True Riverside County Housewife

31 Tuesday Jan 2012

Did I have time for a manicure today?  Did I get acrylic nails today?  Did I get my hair done today?  The answers to these questions are a big fat no.  Did I have time to pamper myself, after all, I am a Riverside County Housewife?  To be honest with you, I don’t have the time or money to waste on these luxuries.  I wish I did. 

 I did paint my finger nails; however, I painted only two finger nails on each hand.  I am sure you are asking the question, “why did I do this, only painting two finger nails on each hand?”  It’s really a simple answer.  I did this because I was hanging pictures in my new home and I used the painted nails to mark the spot on the wall to hammer the nail in place.  Viola, picture in place and I am happy. 

As for my hair, I used to go to my hairdresser every three months, but now I only go every five months and I buy a box of hair dye to dye my roots in between visits.  This is a handy trick for keeping your hair looking good without spending a lot of money. 

This is my life as a Riverside County Housewife.
