Alden kept to his word and he put all of his stuff away from the trip. I was so excited when I came home Monday afternoon to see a clean apartment again. It makes me so much more relaxed when I am not stressing about cleaning everything.

While Alden was gone I went and got a pedicure and a massage. There is a place just down the street from our apartment that has 1 hour massages for $45, so I went and had one. It was so relaxing and I made myself think about nothing during that time. Then I went and had a pedicure. I love it when my toes are painted all cute. Especially because you can wear sandals almost all year long here. I got a french manicure on my toes and it turned out really good. It was a very relaxing day.

My only problem with getting a pedicure is that when I am ready to take the polish off, it doesn't come off at all. I have to scrub with acetone nail polish remover to get it even to budge. I wish you could buy they stuff the use at the salons because I have tried numerous removers and none of them work very good. Let me know if you have any suggestions.

Until next time...
