Pedicures

There are only a couple of words in the English language that evoke a great sense of relief and "ahhhh" when I hear them. One is , "Huntington Beach", and the other is PEDICURE!!! I will explain Huntington Beach in the next entry, but for today, let's talk about pedicures. I have ALWAYS loved having my feet massaged. I am soooo hard on my feet with all the aerobics I teach and just being on them all day at the gym or at home. My feet will start to hurt and ache and get tense and there is nothing that brings relief more than a pedicure. Ocassionally, I have been able to get Mike to rub my feet with my favorite lotion and he has done a fantastic job. I have also "traded out" with a friend of mine who is a massage therapist. She came over and massaged my feet and I got her a couple of her favorite Body Shop products. But with a pedicure, I get massaged feet AND beautiful toes. Now that I teach a couple of Pilates classes each week (socks and shoes off), I love having relaxed AND pretty feet. So last night, I called a local spa establishment in town (for which I have a gift card!!!) and scheduled myself a pedicure for today. I hate that it is so cold that I have to cover my potentially beautiful feet, but that's okay. I will show them off next week at my next Pilates class and I can look at them each night when I take my shoes off. I am looking forward to today!!!
