Nailed It!

I got my nails done. I mean...like...acrylics. I decided that I've been a nail biter all my life and I am constantly embarrassed at my nails. I'm turning 40 this year, and if I haven't stopped biting them yet, why would I quite later? So, the second half of my life will include fake nails!

I had acrylics done professionally once before, in 1989. I was 15 and a bridesmaid in Royce and Lori Hull's wedding. I remember it was difficult to wipe my...er...butt. So, this time, I got them short, sporty and squared. Much better result.

The tips I chose were fuchsia glitter and my ring finger tips were gold glitter. so fun. That lasted about 2 days and I have been painting and repainting them ever since. When I get a fill, I'm going for the clear coat. I just love painting them and the creative side of me can't help it! At this moment they are peach with a sparkle clear coat over the top. My Irish skin looks just fabulous in peach. Glad it's back in. I haven't worn peach since Jason Lee Middle School. My Coca-Cola shirt was peach and white. ;)
