I never go for Manis (except a couple weeks ago because one of my besties is in training at the salon so it was free) but I wish I did. With children, housework, and crafting though, I can't justify the expense.
I really enjoy painting my nails though, so every so often when the house is clean (pfft), the child is asleep, and I decide to shirk on my duties as a business owner/blogger/writer, I'll sit down for about an hour and paint.
Then I can sit at the computer and do whatever though because typing doesn't mess them up for me; it helps them dry!
