Wow, so blogging everyday is pretty tough. Right now I’d like to get a bottle of wine and snuggle on the sofa with Mike! This week has been on the shit side and the general rule of blogging is: if you don’t have anything nice to say then don’t say it. But if you’re blogging everyday, you’ve got to come up with something. Right?
Well, I’ve flipped open my favourite book (I’ve talked about it a LOT before – Manage your day-to-day) and look what it opened to…
“Getting Unstuck” by Mark McGuinness in Manage your day-to-day by 99U
Well, that’s put my situation into perspective! So, instead of bemoaning my non-problems, I am showing up for work.
I’ve decided to look to pinterest for inspiration. It’s my favourite place at the moment. And, what better way to make yourself feel better than to look at loads of insanely beautiful pictures. Today’s stop: Nails.
I am crap at doing my nails but I sure feel like a better human being when I have done them (then I let them chip away until there’s only a little scrap of colour left on each nail!). Have you seen the nail art on pinterest? Some of it is truly hideous but some of it is sick! If you’re after a tasteful selection, here are 5 lovely boards to follow for inspiration…
1) Hannah from Make, Do and Push! has a lovely board called Nailed It (which is where I got the image above from)
2) Pearls and Polish do nail tutorials on their blog so their pinterest board, Nail love, is obviously good!
3) Miss Fingerlady has a board of the same name, showcasing her blog’s posts
4) Lindsey of Neverland Nail blog has a wonderful board called Nail Art I love
5) Sammersaurus has a bunch of cool boards you might like on her profile!
Do you have a favourite nail board on Pinterest? And, what makes you feel good when you’re not feeling so hot? Do share in the comments below! xx
Why are you blogging every day? Have you set yourself a challenge? Thing you’ve done the right thing by doing a bit of Pinterest as a diversion. The way I look at it when I’m stuck for anything to say is… don’t say anything, the internet don’t need no more content, it ain’t gonna to miss me (read that in an Eastender accent). Loving what you do, when you do blog and thanks for linking to #AllAboutYou
Thanks for this Luci and for anyone else who missed it, I wrote a who blog in response…http://www.mumsdays.com/daily-blogging/

I think that unwritten rule about not writing if it’s not positive is there to be broken if you feel like it quite honestly. It all depends on who your audience is and how much you’re willing to put out there, but I figure, my blog, my space, so if you feel negative, unlike Facebook which only ever has those great/fun/cute pictures of your life – i.e. the edited sanitised version – you can pour your woes out and find that people who read you are supportive. On the other hand, Pinterest is definitely a great diversion if you don’t fancy wallowing, and I am with you on the nails! Thanks for linking to #AllAboutYou
Thanks Zaz xxx I think I actually was being negative but putting this up! I was saying “look, I’m sad but I don’t want to talk about it” which is probably worse than posting a generally negative post! But hey, I do love a bit of pinterest 😉 xx
