Election Time

Well the time is coming near where we have to make a choice as to who we want to run our province and I am at a loss... Who to chose?

The Liberals:
They have some major mistakes under their belt in the last two years as our government, billion dollar mistakes...but they seem like they are on a path to try and redeem themselves well at least not get any worse.

The NDP:
Used to be my favourite party under Jack Layton but Andrea Horwath just doesn't seem like a go getter. She just doesn't seem to be fighting very hard and at times seems like she only makes changes when she is pressured to do so.

The PC:
Oh god I don't even know where to start with this one... Okay I do :) Tim Hudak creeps me out, just something about him doesn't seem trust worthy. There are so many other battles that could have been picked before the election was called and it just seemed like his dramatics with libel suits and calling names covered up what was really going on. Since the calling of the election he was the first one with a platform which he should have thought more carefully about because this Million Jobs idea SUCKS!! Cut 100,000 jobs and then you have those people now trying to get these jobs that he is creating and those numbers are still a figment or imagination right now.

My Opinion:
What we need are jobs yes...lots of them but we also need to make sure that the people who have these government jobs are being held accountable and that they are doing the work that is expected of them, otherwise free that position up to someone who is willing to do the job. Over the years you see many people who have been burnt out working hard taking on extra tasks to keep their jobs so that they can afford to live, why aren't we looking at the cost of living?

Healthcare is another issue, I live in a town where we have one walk in clinic for over 100,000 people, in the event of an emergency we might as well just head to the hospital cause we have a better chance of getting seen. Our family doctor is fantastic thankfully and his appointment system allows for us to drop in most days, but for other we know that is not an option they have to wait weeks or hope they can get to the walk-in an hour before it opens.

These are just a few thoughts, my thoughts... I just don't know which way to go it feels like I don't have many options maybe something miraculous will happen in the next two weeks to sway my vote one way or the other.

Trying to feel pretty again...

Well I am doing my best to feel somewhat normal again since having my daughter almost 2 years ago, it is not easy. I see celebrity mom's looking fantastic a week after giving birth and I am envious but then I remember that I don't have lots of money for a home gym and a personal trainer.

So recently I went out got my hair cut shorter and put in some highlights. I am trying to get motivated to get out walking more and eating better to lose some weight. While putting my plan into motion I was given the opportunity to try  new #imPressManicure nails from Influenster and BroadwayNails. I don't have time to go to a nail salon and get my nails done and from having had them done before I know the pain and cost of having them filled and removed.

Here is my experience with my #imPressManicure...

Received my sample in the mail Friday and after reading direction I decided to apply them after my daughter had gone to bed as it says not to expose them to water for at least 30 minutes and with a toddler I am constantly washing something. Application was easy and took very little time.

Saturday Morning we had plans to drive to the next city over and visit some friends and family while getting in a little shopping. Chasing after my toddler all day I didn't lose a single nail and they still felt very firmly attached.

Sunday I took my daughter to the zoo and to visit more friends, still throughout the day they were fine. After a very messy dinner I hauled my daughter off to the bath which was a marathon bath was probably playing in the bath for over a half hour. After my daughter went to bed I noticed one nail was starting to lift so I decided to remove them which was super easy. I didn't even need chemicals nor did my fingers feel bruised like with salon nails when they pull off.

All in all I found the quality to be fantastic, received many compliments on the nails and the design. I recommend these to anyone who wants the look of salon nails without all the cost and hassle of having to go to the salon, or someone who wants temporary nails. As a mom of a busy toddler they were great and didn't scratch my daughter. She wants to put them on now! :)
