#Microblog Mondays: painted toes

We've been battling sickness for the past month. Between fevers, running noses and hacking coughs, there's been many a sick-day and sleepless night. This past Saturday both Beats were cranky from mild fevers, so plans to visit the library and spending time outside were promptly canceled.

Instead, through a process I still quite don't understand, I found both Beats raiding my collection of nail polish. And then promptly insisting on having their toes painted.

It's been awhile since I've given myself a pedicure. Though I use to be meticulous about caring for my feet, these past couple of years doing anything besides trimming my toenails has become a challenge. So it was a bit of a circus going through my kit and finding all the supplies for this process.

In the end, both Beats happily admired their toes. Even He-Beat, who usually fights me even with trimming his nails.
