I have been on vacation from almost 2 days and I am desperately trying to stop thinking about work, but unfortunately even though I had my vacation time planned for weeks, there were still some loose ends that I couldn't tie up before I left so I have been sneaking in a quick peek at emails here and there since clients are involved. I am one of those people who generally does not check voicemails or emails when I am off work as it makes me a happier person and I think it's good for clients and colleagues to give you personal time off. I rarely give my cell phone number out to clients and the few who have it are always told if I am off and they are super respectful about waiting until I am back in the store to communicate. I know this is not commonly the case in commission-based environments as failure to respond means losing a sale and push come to shove, if that's what it will be for me then I will make the time. I have met with clients on my days off maybe a handful of times in 5 years and that was ONLY for clients who live out of town. Are you good at putting up your work/home boundaries? I'm guessing for those of you who work from home, it's incredibly difficult!
I just did these nails today and I rarely do my nails during the day because something ALWAYS comes up where I have to use my hands and they inevitably end up getting destroyed. I did some grocery shopping and laundry, then made lunch before finally sitting down and painting ONE hand because that's how "Vacation Jayne" rolls! I saw these 70s vibe nails on Pinterest done by Sandra of nail blog Finger Candy and thought they looked super cool and had to give 'em a go! The only changes I made were painting a tan/nude base coat as I don't like seeing my smile line and used a matte top coat instead of my usual shiny one.
