I've got chills. I hope...

So these are the nails I did over the weekend...

So these are the nails I did over the weekend and despite them not coming out just how I envisioned I am quite pleased with them.  The plan was to have them start with purple and end with blue, but my nails weren't long enough for that many colors in the gradient.  I think if I'd used a striping brush to put the colors on the sponge I could have made it happen... but, I used the brushes from the bottles, so the lines of polish were thicker.

I feel so excited that I can do gradients now.  The colors of this one actually reminded me of one that I did FIVE YEARS AGO.  I went back and looked at it and OH MY GOSH.  I can't believe y'all were liking my nail posts back then.  🤣🤣🤣  (But thank you for doing it.  I needed the encouragement, clearly.)

Here is the link to that post, if you need a laugh.  I would say that I'm embarrassed of that photo, except that I'm not.  You gotta start somewhere and that was taken just maybe a year after I discovered nail art, so I was a total newb at many of the techniques.  So if you have room to improve, worry not.  Keep practicing and you'll get there.  Isn't it amazing how much we can change over time?

I don't usually post nudes, but... I am right now.

I don't usually post nudes, but... I am right now.  I am in shock and awe that these nails are attached to my fingers.  😳  I don't think they have ever all been this long, and I know that they have never looked so healthy.

After a week with no nail catastrophes on Cindy with her stilettos I decided to go ahead and re-shape my right hand last night.  I also cleaned all of the polish off my fingers and toes, so I have naked nails all around.  I'm about to have something to eat and then I'm gonna start painting.  😁

I think that my Bliss Kiss Simply Pure Nail Oil is finally taking effect.  I've been using it for months, but my nails still peeled and warped.  I have to take into consideration that Psoriatic disease affects not only skin and bones, but can ruin nails, as well.  So yes, I naturally have ridges and dents and brittle, peeling nails, but I think that the oil has helped tremendously.  That, and keeping them polished so they have some reinforcement.

Anyway, I'm off to go throw some paint down before I break one of these.  LOL  Happy weekend, friends!  ❤

I'm dyin'.

I'm dyin'. Booka has discovered that if he lets Nom climb on him just enough that standing up suddenly will flip Nom over.

🤣🤣🤣
