HAPPY B-DAY, K!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, once upon a very very long time ago, when I was but a wee little 6th grader, I had a bad habit. I bit my fingernails. Now, not your normal fingernail biting...like, my nails NEVER grew out before I would attack them. My mom tried everything. EVERYTHING. Even the seriously nasty crap they make that you can paint on your kids fingertips to make them taste disgusting. Everything. (Didn't work. I just got really good at peeling that shiz off real fast so I could get back to my fingernail....so odd...)Anywho, enter my lovely sister. I looked (right, as if that's actually past tense) up to her in SOOO many ways. Round about this time, all my sisters got married...at once. But that's a different story. The thing is, K had the most gorgeous fingernails on the planet! Seriously, they were ALWAYS stunning. I was SOOOO jealous of her. I would tell her that constantly. I have memories of sitting with her as she would paint her luxuriously long nails any color, and they always looked beautiful. So, that year, for my birthday, she gave me my very own nail kit. And she told me....(now that I'm an adult, I understand there's a very good chance my mother put her up to it)
"If you want nails like mine, you will have to stop chewing on them. Work on it now, you'll get there someday."
Fast forward 20 friggin years. :) Check these puppies out!
Congrats on breaking the habit. I used to have that habit as well.
ReplyDeleteI remember that Rach had that habit but I never knew that you did as well. Just think, all these years you could have been a hand model. Seriously you've got some nice hands/nails. I personally am going for the arthritic look already. Good job!
ReplyDeleteHahah! I like it! Let's blame Rach for me having that habit! JUST KIDDIN. I really did. And I got RID of that habit a long time ago, just finally put it together with that story the other night. And one more thing...YOU ARE GORGEOUS. Just sayin.
Deleteinteresting girls interesting. I am doing a bit better with my habit, but not much :)
ReplyDeleteHahahahah! Rach, I'm sure you're doing much better. And, btw, YOU are gorgeous as well. I've been watching the HI pics come up on Heidi's blog every so often. So beautiful, as always.
DeleteJust dropping in to catch up on your life... you know.... your nails, your closet, the funny things you see. Hope to see your face sometime soon... we are moving back to THE Utah Valley!
