A bit better today...

So..my last post was about my newly naked nails. Lol, I almost typed newly naked palette. What could I have been thinking. The pictures I took today are my nails one week post acrylic. I have to tell you since I do my own acrylics my nails are screaming "Put back on the acrylics!! They are so pretty." Not going to happen. Hopefully my will power holds out. I had tried the Salon Sciences After Acrylics mentioned in the previous post. I used it for three days but it would just peel off. No bueno. I switched to Nail Tex Xtra for Difficult Nails. This seems better and I do see a tiny bit of growth. The problem I'm finding is strength. I give a bazillion immunizations at work and popping all those little caps off the vaccine vials is tearing up my thumb nail. Hence the excessive nastiness on my right thumb.

Anyhoo, this is the recult of one week using the Nail Tex Xtra. I shall keep you posted.

Until next time.....

Thanks for dropping by.

Wishing you the very best Holiday season

Yes, I know it's been two months since my last post. My health issues have carried over for two months and I have been exhausted. I was finally feeling better and I lost someone very dear to me. When I was born. I was blessed with amazing parents, my Nana and my Aunt Wanda. Wanda has always treated me like her own. I spent every minute of my childhood that I could at Wanda and Nana's house. It was home to me. My grandmother taught me how to iron, cook and sew among other things. I lost her when I was 11. Both parents passed away in 2003. Wanda was always there for me. She was like a second mom to me. She helped me with anything she could. She babysat my six kids when I was a single parent going to school. She treated my kids like they were her own. She was an amazing woman. She worked at Grand Coulee Dam when it was being built, she traveled and she truly loved life. She was a Christian and she devoted her life to Jesus Christ. Back in July when I had surgery on my foo...

Hell's bells!!!!

Oops.... I didn't realize it had been two weeks since my last post. Since I apparently live in the new Arctic Circle, all I've had time to do is stay warm. My daughter has missed five days of school due to the weather. That's unheard of where I'm from. When I was in High School, I can't remember ever having a show day. Maybe that was before Global Warming. Who coul d tell. And is Global warming really a thing? Or is it something the Government made up to scare the Hell out of normal people like myself? On that note....away we go. This is the look I came up with for New Year's Eve. Did I go out? Nope. Did I have a Gourmet dinner party for 20 at my home? Again, nope. I never do things like have dinner parties. I just thought it was New Year's Eve-ish looking. Yes I know that isn't correct Grammar. And no, I don't care. If people can say "A'ight or turnt." I can say Eve-ish. Get with the program teachers. Start teaching c...

Never fear.....

No one will ever know. So, today's post is about two things. I was raised in a fairly conservative family. Air Force Dad, working Mom. I got my ears pierced when I was about 8 years old. I begged to get them pierces for what, at the time, seemed like an eternity. My Mom finally relented. It wasn't until I was 17 that I got a second piercing in my ear lobe. In collage, I added a third piercing to one ear. In the words of Bob Dylan "The times, they are a changing." Nowadays, people pierce everything I've had my eyebrow, nose, tongue, lower lip and ears pierced. The remaining piercings besides my ears are a tiny stud in my nose and under my lower lip. Ive had them pierced for so long, I don't even think about them anymore Long story short, I bought some piercing needles and jewelry. I had hemostats from Nursing School. I sterilized the hemostats and jewelry. My daughter was home so we pierced my ear. I decided to pierce my septum. No big thing. With t...
