Gimme Gimme Gimme

Posted on February 16, 2010 Written by Tonya

I need a manicure, no a facial, and a massage.
I need some girl time.
I need a cocktail.
I need to take a long cleansing breath.
I need to have a good cry.
I wish I were getting lost in an epic novel right now on a plane on the way to Paris.
I wish we never ran out of toilet paper, paper towels, Kleenex or peanut butter in my house.
I wish I had a garden of big beautiful bright cheery sunflowers and a personal chef and that there were clean sheets on my bed.
I want to have a snot coming out of my nose, tears running down my face laugh fest.
I want to run so hard that it feels like my heart might burst right out of my chest.
I want someone to clean out my wallet, balance my check book and organize all my photos.
I want to return to Africa.
I crave adult conversation.
I crave a Crumbs chocolate cupcake with cream cheese frosting.
I would like to sleep for 11 hours straight without interruption.
I would like to have a dog.
I should drink more water.

Gimme a break, I really just need a manicure and your smiles.

The best is yet to be.

    A mani/pedi can do wonders for a mom! Mattias went with me for my pedicure on Saturday (daddy was working). I let him pick out the color for my toes (he chose pink, of course) and eat a lollipop while splashing in the massage chair water and in turn he behaved long enough for me to get my toes done (not long enough for me to get a manicure but that's ok). It was bliss!
