How nice! Last year, I wanted a ruby ring for our anniversary. I love it. I love rings and jewelry so much.

Well, I got VERY ill at noon and spent all day in bed. I took my little bird in her big cage and put her in my bedroom, put my little dog on my bed and we stayed there. Long day. I have a nice tv in there but mostly just closed my eyes. Dizzy and sick.

I have lots of immune system work to do but I am working very hard. Great things to take and in touch with my doctors. We are working on my D3 too.

Hubby finally got home and cooked a yummy meal. He just took my little bird to her night time cage. He fed our little doggie too. I finally bathed and brushed my hair, ha. It was 7:30pm!

Oh well, I have had some decent days. Each day is so different.

Hubby took a picture of me with my Bluebonnet yesterday. We were going to lunch. Noon, bad time to take a picture, harsh light. I don't need the wheelchair to go to Fish City Grill so we could take my little car. I can't wait to drive her again someday!

It's time for more fun. I was horribly nauseated all day yesterday. Hubby had to come home to help me.

Now since I feel good today, I will add a fun picture. I LOVE Zoya nail polish. I have a nice collection of colors. They have great names for them and the colors are fun. I love them because many have opulescent colors, they all change as you look at them in the sun. Here is one picture for fun.

Oh, I forgot, the reason I only use Zoya is that they don't have the bad stuff that some polishes have. I have the remover, base, anchor color etc. Great product. They have it at my Whole Foods, but I order them. More to choose from.

Hi Sallysblooms,

Pretty color! My fingernails are bare (some things just gotta go, ya know?), but I like polished toe nails in the summer. I need to go outside to use the polish remover because I can't have that smell in the house. Too sickening. So the toes are looking raggedy lately because it's been SO HOT.

Perhaps I'll have my granddaughter do them for me.

You should try this brand. The smell isn't bad. I have a bird and you can't have smells in the house for birds. Bad for me too, so this works great. I love painting my nails. I can now that I feel better.

I think when I did my nails last with polish (or maybe it was the time before), I tried to get my boyfriend to paint them for me so I could have them well away from my face, (i dont handle the fumes well). He's such a chicken thou and was too worried about messing up my nails, so I didnt manage to get him to do them.

I usualy go outside to do my nails too on the rare occassions I paint them (even thou outside I dont always do well with the smell, so i rarely do them)

Time to add another picture. Toenails. Maxi dress, sandles, ha. I love the colors in this Zoya polish. Irridescent. Purple and green. Fun. I don't wear it on my fingernails, but it is so neat on my toes. It's too bad you can't see how the colors change.
