✨And the rain fell, and he floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. Matthew 7:25
Hey Chile. Look at my nails! 💅 I AM IN LOVE. I’ve been on this color streak for a while now and Chile I am loving it. Blue has been my favorite! I like!! I mean, look at em. This color was a risk taker and Chile it ended up being my favorite. What do ya know. That’s crazy, right? (Ha!) And blue ain’t even my color like that, but this one, oh she popped!
😍😍😍😍 These are my favorite, hands down!
I be having ‘nail moods’ Chile. I be on a certain nail wave for a good little while. It can be a certain look that I be stuck on. Like a theme, (design) a nail shape, or a nail color.
I love a good nail shop that be having gel color out the ying yang.
Ya know, it so crazy how we can remember the smallest of details when things happen to us. It can be what we were wearing. It can be a song. It can be a smell even. It can be anything. That’s deep right!
When I had my miscarriage I can remember my nails so vividly. I can remember the day I got my nails done. Never thinking that those nails would be the same nails on the hand that was holding bloody tissue paper, bent over in excruciating pain. I can remember the nails I got when I was healing from my miscarriage.
For whateva reason, I wanted so badly to get rid of those nails. All of it. The design and even the shape of my nails. (Whew Chile 🥺) Ugh. It’s like my appointment could not just come fast enough.
** THESE ARE THE NAILS I HAD JUST GOT DONE WHEN I HAD MY MISCARRIAGE.
Ya know, I have never thought about in great depth as to why that is something I remember from that so sad time. I mean, you don’t have to know me personally to recognize that nails are just my thang. I love me a fresh set of nails and toes Chile. Even as a little girl, ya girl had some polish on them nails hunny. Mmkay! (I really should have been a nail tech when I grew up, ha!😊)
** THESE ARE MY POST MISCARRIAGE NAILS. I FELT SO MUCH BETTER ONCE MY NAILS WERE DONE. It was like a weight being lifted off my shoulders.
I absolutely love getting my nails done. I have thought about getting my license to do nails quite a few times. But if I do Chile, I’m still going to go to the nail shop. I’m so serious. I know, I know. ‘But you can save money.’ Trust me I know. But who works to just keep allll their money under their mattress? Chile I’m gone spend money on my nails and toes. That’s just that ‼️
I enjoy the whole move and groove of getting my 2 to 3 week nail and feet maintenance. Even when it comes down to making the appointment. Nails are just my thang Chile. Sometimes I will make it a ‘Girls Date’ with my daughters and sometimes it’s just, ‘Me, Myself, and I‘ Chile. I like to stop and get some coffee to drink, or a bubble tea and a danish to eat. I have my Stanley filled with ice, water, lemons, and blueberries! My headphones are charged to the max and be I am ready to go. Depending on what day it is I will catch up on a sermon I may have missed from Bible study. I might watch an interview or listen to a podcast. And not for nothing Chile, I’m going to turn my music up and jam at some point. IYKmeYK! Either way it’s a vibe.
Alright now Chile, I’m about to head on out. I just was stopping through. I wanted to chit chat, nothing formal. I have a few thangs I need to get done today, it’s Sunday. I need to write down my workout for my three day workout plan this week. I need to fill in my planners from this weekends events. I also need to prepare for some emails and phone calls next week too. So, I’ll be pretty productive for the rest of the day doing this, that, and the third. This weekend was nothing short of amazing from beginning to end. I had a time! 🤩🥰
Oh yeah! One more thang before I leave. I am reading ‘Atomic Habits’ by James Clear. I started reading this particular book last year on my ‘Mommy Self- Care’ vacation and once I got back home I picked it up a few times and that was all. So I started it from the very beginning again this week and I am really in the mindset of receiving what this self help book is trying to help me with. The difference between goals and systems. I’m increasing self- discipline in certain areas in my life. I’m just trying to be great Chile and also learn how to give myself grace while doing it. God is good ain’t He! I will share more of the book with you as I go a long, k. I will post some pictures up Chile, I got you.
Thank you for stopping through and chit chatting with me. If you have not subscribed, please do! I mean, what are you waiting on Chile! (Tee-hee.) 🤭 Make sure you’re following me on other platforms as well!
