On the agenda today during a longer lunch hour is a pedicure with a friend. The yellow toes will be replaced with pink, I think. Hope you have a great day.
What ways do you simplify?

Simplify
I have gone to the same person for seven years to cut my hair. I love her and she knows much about my life! However, getting to her place has become more and more complicated often involving a cab ride and/or trying to coordinate with Steve or a friend. This week's appointment just didn't work with transportation. After having to cancel my appointment, I decided to walk over to a salon near my office. I was a little apprehensive but what is the worst thing that could happen - a bad haircut that would grow back in 6 weeks. I walked in and they were so friendly. She cut my hair and then as I went to pay she told me the first haircut is free. The walk back to my office took about two minutes especially when I told Cricket that she would be getting 'dinner' when we arrived! It became a nice brisk walk and I realized a way I could simplify what had become a challenging situation.

I think your hair is very cute and looks easy to care for. I love the fact you got some curl from your dad. Love you
Great decision. Simplify is one of my personal mottos. I make decisions based on the locations all the time. I've actually been thinking for some time of doing a post outlining some of the things I do to simplify. We have so much in common my dear friend. x
You look cute.
I simplify by doing my own pedicures. I know it's a treat for most, but I hate them.
I totally pick places based on proximity. I also get rid of things all the time, and Adam will ask "Where is my ____?" I reply, "It was gone in a burst of Fung shui."
this was amazing to me. miracles in the little things. the beauty of simplifying.the growth in risk. im raising the bar...or is that lowering the bar? :)
It always feels so good to "simplify"...I wish I could wear short hair...I'd like REAL short hair.
time for pink toenails indeed....it feels so good to have fancy feet
I read the story below as well. Very inspiring to see the things we are able to do for others in this life!!
So cute, love the hair!
You have posed a significant question, as I sit here and ponder much longer than I should over my answer, the single thing that comes to mind besides taking a nap after my night shift is the lesson ideas for Family Home Evening in the back of The Friend...I don't have time or energy to do elaborate, well-crafted lessons for my attention-span-deficient children, so the idea prompts in the back of the magazine make my life simple (on Mondays at least) ;)
