I have have been short of breath all day - well all day after I got out of the pool.  And my cough sounds honky. But, it's not wheezy so probably just life with COPD. And I'm so sleepy. I hate taking naps. Really I do. I want to be sleepy exactly 1 time a day and that's minutes before I actually go to sleep. At night. No nap today. I'm powering through.

And while I'm griping about bodily things, something is up with my fingernails. I like to keep them shortish. When you spend an hour in chlorinated water a day, plus washing dishes and regular day to day wet hand things, polish is not happening. It's not worth the effort it takes to get it on. So with no polish, longer nails just look silly. And... yet... lately... mine grow like they are being paid big bucks to get long. Cutting them is a PIA because I can never cut them cleanly so then I have to file them and that creates snags.  It seems like I cut them down to the pads of my fingers just the other day and now they are all back to too long again.

Between clipping Zoey's nails and clipping mine, nail clipping is beginning to feel like a job abound here.

I don't think long nails look silly without polish. :P Mom's had long nails her entire life and I've never seen her wear nail polish.

When was the last time you bought new clippers? That could be why they don't cut cleanly.

I like to keep my nails long, but that gets in the way of my typing.

Also, I have ONE more or less housework-resistant nail polish right now, and it's BRIGHT YELLOW (a present from a friend who lives in Germany). I actually like it, but it doesn't suit too many of my clothes. Life is unfair. LOL

Luckily, long nails without polish don't look silly to me. :P
