today I finally made it to Total Wrapture for a pedicure…

I’ve been waiting for a while but things hadn’t fallen into place until today…

it was time to give my nails a rest, so I kept my socks on while I waited for my appointment as I wouldn’t be having them painted…

the last few times when I’d had the paraffin treatment, it seemed that the polish came off sooner so I haven’t had it for ages… since I wasn’t having polish I decided to have the paraffin treatment…

it was lovely and my feet felt so soft afterwards… also nice to leave without worrying about smudging toes, lol…

they will have a good break without polish and will be ready for colour when I start to wear sandals again…

on Saturday I decided it was time for a pedicure… hadn’t had one since the September long weekend while I was visiting my daughter in Ottawa…

called and was able to get in… went on my own…

got a picture beforehand…

those pink slippers were kind of bright… decided on the pedicure with hot stone massage and paraffin…

was the very best paraffin portion I have ever had… Victoria did a great job of getting the wax all the way around my feet…

chose purple glittery polish…

came out very nice, although for the second time in a row it has taken a crazy amount of time to dry completely…

because my toes took so long to dry I decided not to have a hot tub that night…

next day when I went out for a hot tub had to wear water shoes and a toque as it is cooling off out there…

bliss…

slept in a bit this morning which was lovely…

  
had breakfast and did a few chores to get ready for my company this evening…

then I headed off to the Spa for a pedicure… chose one that has a hot stone massage and a paraffin treatment…  

soothing music played, there were few clients, and I was able to relax and barely even twitched while Melinda worked on my toes… this is unusual as I have very sensitive feet…  
when we were done, I was able to fit in a sports manicure… I don’t like polish on my fingernails because it always seems to chip and look messy, so was happy that they have something for people who just want their nails clipped and filed…
  
while I was there I saw a beautiful purple purse but it had gold metal on it which I am not a fan of… I did think about it a lot, but didn’t let myself be swayed…

came home and finished making some chicken soup, which I then had for lunch…

had a nap and watched a bit of tv while waiting for my company to arrive…

  
had a wonderful time with them… supper was delicious and our conversation was excellent…
chose dates for our next few meetings and everyone headed out..
  
tidied up and am on my way to bed…

blissful day…
