Hooker! Are you a hooker?!

Today something happened that reminded me of the 1981 movie Arthur. 

There is a scene where he's in a fancy restaurant with a lady of the night that he picked up earlier. They start talking and then he yells out "You're a hooker? Jesus, I forgot! I thought I was doing GREAT with you!"

Well today I got called a hooker. Oh not like in the movie but I was mistaken for a prostitute. I will explain. I went on a meetup group meeting downtown that was being held in an expensive hotel. I have never been to this hotel before, nor have I gone to one of these meetup group meetings. Now this is a PROFESSIONAL meetup group. And I don't mean THAT profession either. It was a women's entrepreneurial meeting. I wore a business suit. A BUSINESS SUIT!!!!! Now I don't have tons of money but I don't exactly dress in rags either. 

I walked in, looking admittedly lost, when some smuck walks up to me and asks me if I was "looking for someone." Well of course I was looking for someone! Duh. So I said yes. Well then he proceeds to tell me that he's only in town for the weekend and that he will only pay up to $1500 a night! I was shocked and confused. The only thing I could squeak out of my appalled mouth was, "What?!"Of course the moron decides to repeat what he said. I was disgusted.  

I told him that I wasn't a hooker and walked off. I have never been so humiliated in my whole life. It did prompt me to go to the rest room and ensure that I didn't over do it on the make up.  I found my group and had a good time. 

Note to self, don't wear skirt, wear pants!

Until next time....

Isn't this over yet?!

Sometimes I just want to scream! It feels like the last 2 and half years have just taken a crap on me and my family and there seems no end in sight.  Oh let's recap shall we... 2016 was my son's first open heart surgery followed by a plethora of doctor's appointments and other surgeries. I thought it was over by the end of the year and took the advice of Whitney Houston and friends when I exhaled. However, my fun filled days were not over yet and I found myself dumbfounded by the turn of events in my life.  2017 started out fine...well not really. January brought us the bad news that our black Lab Molly Mae had cancer. It was in her bones and basically there was nothing to do but love her.  So, that's what we did. We took her home and loved her. Then, in April we were informed that my son needed to have another open heart surgery because the tissue valve that they put in was not performing the way that they thought that it would and now needed ...

16 days later...

Well, it's been sixteen days since my last post and well I can honestly say that I am totally disappointed. I thought that I would see some sort of growth but I haven't. What's worse is that my nails are so thin and weak that I had to actually cut some of my nails because they tore. Not because they grew. They were weak to begin with but at least they feel a little better. I mean I can now take a shower and the hot water doesn't hurt my fingernails. I am also a bit perplexed at the my second to the last finger. If you look close you can see the part of the nail that had solar on it and the amount of growth but my nail never got longer and this is not one of the one's that I had to trim. Things that make you go hummmm.  So here are my nails. I have been using the Nail-Aid Keratin for 16 days. It says 3 days growth but in three days I saw no growth. I have been receiving e-mails and comments suggesting that I use the O.P.I. Nail Strengthening but I refuse. ...

It's been three months....

Okay it's been three months since I started this journey. I had decided to stop being a slave to my fake nails and go all natural. For better or worse, I wanted to stop putting so many chemicals in and on my body and just let nature take it's course. Having said that, I knew I was in for a rough ride. For starters, I have been wearing solar/acrylic nails since I was sixteen years old. I now have a 16 year old daughter of my own, so you do the math...I will not help.  Anyway, The first two months were hard. My nails were so thin and weak that I could actually bend what little nail I had backwards without pain. So I cut my nails down to the quick and decided to start new. I first started with using Sally Hansen's Hard as Wraps but found out that they have formaldehyde in it. So I changed. I over to Nail-Aid's Keratin and 3 Minute Artificial. It is made in America and does not use formaldehyde and does NOT test on animals.  So, I saw little to no improvement...
