Saturday. Do you turn off or do you actually do work as well.

2015-08-15 17.22.55

So how you spend your Saturday morning? Do you get to sleep in? Maybe you have to work on Saturdays?

I wake up, make a coffee and go to my desk to check my email. I try to finish up anything I didn’t complete the previous work week. As an entrepreneur I don’t always have the luxury of turning “off”. I must say however, that I am really trying to “TURN OFF”.

My claim to fame – I am always available. That might have been okay in my younger days, but it certainly is not true for me anymore.  Does this blog post count as work?

I remember my first Blackberry. I had one of the first ones on the mobitext. It changed my life. I used to be on the road all day, then I would have to spend a couple of hours after work replying back to all of the email messages in my inbox. My Blackberry saved me an hour or two everyday. I made it my mission to get everyone I knew on a Blackberry and all of my friends, colleagues and clients were happy to do so at my request.

Now everything has changed.

Nail Polish – Do you have a signature colour?

Nail Polish – Do you have a signature colour?

I am a creature of habit. If I find I like something I tend to stick with it. Like my nail polish. I used to be the Queen of the French Manicure. Week in and week out, I would get my french manicure. Now I would get more daring on my toes. I would be more daring. I would pink Pink. Actually fushcia to be more exact.

Then after years and pehaps decades, I changed to OPI Lincoln park. Dark short nails, That was it. And because I tend to be the matchy-matchy type guess what colour I would put on my toes… you guessed it.

I recently made a change to Blue – but that was to support Beauty Gives Back and their campaign to support women suffering from the cancer blues. So guess what – I painted my finger nails one shade of blue and my toes another shade :).

Now I am thinking I might go back to my French manicure roots – but only partially. I think I am going to go for a pink. OPI Bubble Bath was always my favourite.

Friday Night. Do you have a Weekly Ritual?

Back in the day – I couldn’t wait for the weekend. Friday night and you would NEVER catch me at home. After all – it was the weekend!

Now, I look forward to coming home, getting into my cozies, ordering in dinner, and enjoying a nice glass of wine. The thought of actually having to get ready to go out on a Friday night is just no longer appealing. Not only that, I really don’t have the energy.

Another reason – I like to get up early. The thought of sleeping in on a Saturday actually seems like such a waste of time precious free time. How about you? Do you have the luxury of sleeping in on Saturdays? Do you enjoy being tired on Saturday morning?
