Tend & Spruce skincare and massage

Up to date post: The past two days went by quickly. I traveled from Paris to Marseille, stayed the night, woke early, grabbed 3 separate trains and one bus back to Tübingen.
The trains station and IPhone maps working together was incredibly confusing. It took a little bit to navigate where to go to get out of the station.
Marseille’s city near the water was interesting. It looked like tons of alleys that were actually streets. The streets have side by side buildings, tightly fit together. There are store fronts that look like little warehouse entrances. It utilizes it’s space very efficiently. The hotel was near a clothing district? Store fronts filled with almost the same shoes and clothing repeatedly. Restaurants were tucked in everywhere. I got out of the city and out to the waterfront area. There was something that looked like a vendor market. I went in. It made me chuckle. All of the vendors were selling THE SAME THING!! The whole market was filled with figurines, little buildings and mangers to build villages. Probably to also build nativity scenes. Or maybe just to build very detailed nativity scenes? It was funny to walk through and keep thinking, “I’m sure this is just a section of this market.” Nope!! The whole market was focused on that customer base.
The best parts of Marseille were the food, the uniqueness of the city and the people.
I’m happy I got a snapshot of Marseille. I’d love to stay longer and see more of it.
I’m back in Tübingen. I’m taking a laundry/rest day. I’ll make a plan of what is next on this fun adventure!!

I hope everyone is feeling hopeful and filled with some joy in this new year. ♥️

If I didn’t get to see you before the holidays, I want you to know that I’m going to EUROPE!!! 🤗 I’ll be back to work on Jan. 11! If you reach out to me via text or email, I may be delayed in responding. I’ll be 9 hours ahead of WA. If you’d like to try your hand at scheduling or rescheduling yourself try my website @ [email protected] I’m completely grateful to all of you. You make work never feel like work. You bless me with your time, your wisdom, your silliness, your trust and your generosity. Happiest Holidays to you and yours! 🎄🎅🏻🕎🎉🥳🎊

Do people really say things like this? Are they excited when they say it?

I specifically do skincare and massage to avoid this type of business. When I worked at MHS, a spreadsheet made me cry in frustration. Seriously!!!

The closest I get to spreadsheets is “spreading sheets” on my table to work. 😉

Happy Turkey Day Eve!!

2021 was supposed to be a normal year. It felt like it was, for a month. I’ve been MIA a lot this year, on social media. I’m so grateful to my clients for coming in and trusting me with their care. I’ve been trying to straddle a home renovation, owning a small business and a pandemic. It hasn’t been easy. My clients have been so loving to me. I’m truly blessed. ♥️ If you’re in the holiday mood, please support local. It might take some extra time but it’s well worth it. I know many small businesses that would love your support. Reach out if you need ideas. Amazon may bring it to your door but small businesses are your community. They live by you. They need you. Love them this season, please. ♥️♥️♥️

Self care with a sheet mask. It felt juicy and kinda nice. This one has CBD in it. I’m trying to figure out which ones I’d like to offer in my shop. I think this one is a good’n. 😉 I hope you’re doing some good things for yourself too. 💜

Fall and winter months are the best months to do more result oriented skin care services. They are the best months because we often have less sunny days calling us outside to play. We all love sunshine but getting a break from the sun and treating our skin is a perfect combination. Every skin care add you see on TV or in magazines boasts remarkable change. Just about 100% of the time those products don’t deliver those results. A Series of chemical peels can. They change the texture of your skin, and diminish the appearance of pigment. I hope this information helps you make great choices for you and your skin. I love learning insider information. I hope you do too! Happy Sunday! ♥️

I put this sign up in our lobby. ♥️ I’m not wishing away Thanksgiving....more like wishing away all the stress exhaustion for everyone! ♥️

LOL!!! I just realized I spelled Christmas wrong!! 🤣😆 That sums up how my brain has been working lately. 🙃

I don’t think everyone has reminders like this in their car?! 😉 Little post-it notes are how I run much of my life. If I don’t write it down, I forget. 🤦🏼‍♀️

I found something to celebrate during this crazy year.

I’m excited to share my new booking software!

It is extremely user friendly for me and will be for my clients.
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🥳🥳🎉🎉🎉🎉

I just updated my Facebook and Instagram pages. The link is to my new software on GLOSSGENIUS!

My StyleSeat page will be up for a month or two to let people learn that I’ve moved. No booking is available on my old StyleSeat page.

Please reach out to me with questions. I’m best reached via text message. (Because I’m kind of tech savvy and a little bit of an old lady that likes to keep things simple.) 😉

Starting off the week with a whole shelf of hand sanitizer options! ♥️
