nail advice needed, not much else on the happs

 Matt is due home tomorrow!  Yay!  I think he will be spending tonight in Ohio(Wooster area) at his Uncle Lynn and Aunt Cyndy’s place, at least I don’t expect him to make the 16 hour drive(ride) home from Clinton, IA, today.  I’m just glad he’ll be back here, I’ve missed him.

Yesterday Dave came over with his 2 hairless cats to see how they would get along with Widget.  Widget has never seemed to have a problem with other animals in the past so I didn’t anticipate any issues, he usually just ignores  them.  However Dave’s cats took to hissing at each other, at Widget, at us…  Needless to say while he is out of town I don’t think that I will be having the girls over here.  🙂  It took us a while to get them out to his car again so he could take them home, it was really weird.  But the good news I got out of it is that Widget doesn’t particularly mind other cats in the house so if we ever want to get another kitten we’d be alright.  I think, anyway. 🙂  Widget is so needy though I’m not sure I’d want to do that to him.

I really need to get on cleaning the house today and getting the spare room ready for guests since my younger siblings + Emily will be out here in a few short weeks!  I am excited that they are coming out to visit for a few days, it will be good times.  I definitely need to vacuum and sweep around here, there is fur everywhere.

So I am back on my trying to not bite my nails kick and actually let them grow out a bit.  So far I have been semi-successful.  Does anyone have any tips on growing nails and keeping them shaped and looking nice?  The extent of my nail knowledge is how to paint them and barely stay inside of the lines.  Is there anything I can do for them to help them grow faster and stronger?  My hands spend a lot of time inside of nitrile gloves at work and I wear these half-glove cotton liners to absorb some of the moisture but those leave the top half of my fingers free so that when I type I’m not making tons of typos.  I am not sure if the moisture will hurt or help my nails, I guess we’ll find out.

Matt just texted me, says that he is near Chicago.  Guess he is making good time?  I don’t really know, haha.

Hmm I wonder if I can sweet talk Matt into putting up the other wall lantern for the side door and maybe perhaps put up the squiggly mirrors we bought at Ikea ages ago.  This place is still so barren on the walls, I need to do some kind of decoratey-ness.

Alright I suppose I should get to cleaning it’s noon already.  This is what I get for going back to sleep after waking up at 8AM.  Being lazy never pays off!

Later taters.
