Thankful Thursday #3

Hello Friends,

Today is Thankful Thursday.

What are you thankful for today?

I am thankful for time.  Many of us with crazy busy schedules always seem to want MORE hours in the day.  I even asked for a few more yesterday, which got me to thinking.

There are times in our lives when we wish there were less hours in the day.

For myself, there has been many times I wished for time to go faster... while waiting to hear back from a nurse when my baby had a 104 temp, waiting for results from an ultrasound that confirmed everything would be ok, waiting for that test score that is going to determine my career path, waiting for the day I walked down the isle to the one I love...

In that moment yesterday, when I was wishing for an extra few hours in the day... It just made me think... what if that wish was granted.

So I am very thankful for the TIME I DO HAVE!!

I would love to hear what you are thankful for today.

Hugs,

What? Wednesday! #3

Happy WHAT! Wednesday Everyone!

Ok, so my question of the day has nothing to do with crafting.  Something I noticed for the umpteenth time yesterday and I am curious if anyone else experiences this strange situation.

The strange situation is FINGERNAILS!  Do you notice that when you start "Taking care" of your nails they all the sudden decide to break?

So normally, I am not one to take the time on my nails.  Hand lotion is about all they see and at that it is not daily.  Then when I notice my nails are starting to grow, I get all giddy and excited, I then sit still for 10 minutes and put on some cute nail polish.

Then what do you think happens... they retaliate.  That is the only way I can explain it.  Its like they are thinking... 'see, we got your attention didn't we? Should have paid attention to us before we had to beg... hmmmm'

I just don't get it.  Give them a little TLC and BOOM... chip, break, crack, GONE!!!

Of course I don't think it helps when Pumpkin sits on my lap and bends them backward.

Do your little people do that?  She really isn't even thinking about it, watch a movie or I am reading to her and she is holding my hand bending my nail this way and that... I guess relaxing for her, like twirling your hair.. IDK.. half the time I don't even notice.

Ok Ok...so what is the WHAT? Wednesday! Question?

How do you make your flowers, opps... 
I mean Fingernails Grow?

Let me know in comments how you keep your hands pretty!  
Share your secret tricks and potions, or do you make scotch tape fingernails?  
Did anyone else do that when they were pre-teens, or was that just me?  I guess it could be considered one of my first CRAFT projects.  LOL

Happy Crafting everyone... HUGS ~ Denine
