It don't rain..lol

Finally, the internet is back on!!! yeahah~~ it's been a long week without it..apparently it was on yesterday, but someone plugged the cords into the wrong holes in the splitter...ok, ok..so I was in a hurry and didn't have my glasses on..it's all fixed now, no need to go on about it ROFL....

now onto business.....

It's raining babies, hallelujah, it's raining babies, hallelujah. oh yes indeed, this little duck is going to be a granny TWICE next year...raining babies, oh yes indeed...

NO Tina is not having twins unfortunately   Hayley has just informed me, well a few hours ago that they too are expecting baby #3..HOW EXCITING and both due within weeks of each other!!! OH MY..it's a case of deja-vu indeed!! This happened when Tina was pregnant with Evan and then Haylz got pregnant with Emily...oh my...now wouldn't it be nice to have 2 pink bundles come out of this...that would make everything nice and even...3 boys, 3 girls...ahh sigh...but I don't really mind what colour they are (meaning pink or blue lol) so long as I can have lots of cuddles and snuggles....

vital information missed

Tess you forgot to say that the best thing about your new house is that it's closer to me rofl.
Jackie

oh dear, I'm so sorry...I forgot that vital piece of information..yes, indeed about 5 minutes down the hill.. you can even get here when you have no petrol ROFL..

secret # 3

OK I can now let secret #3 out of the bag..the most important and breathtaking most spectacular news of all...

On April 29th (or thereabouts) Grandchild # 5 will be gracing us with her/his (hoping it's a her!) presence. To say I'm gobsmacked, excited, ever so happy about this is an understatement.

All these years of nagging, pleading, begging, blackmailing has finally paid off. For heaven's sake at one stage I thought perhaps I'd have to break in and sabotage the condoms if nothing happened soon!!

Tina and Zeb are expecting baby # 3..

I spoke to Keiran tonight and asked him if they were getting a baby..he said..

yes, when I'm in grade one,we'll have a baby.

I asked if Theresa would be a nice name and he agrees...shame his mother doesn't!

HOW EXCITING...a baby...mmmmmmmm I cant wait......only 6 more months to go..

what a busy year 2009 is going to be....Wedding in January, Birth in April and now Hayley announces, her wedding will be in May...

I think i audibly heard Luke and Hayley breath a huge sigh of relief, when I told them I am so pleased that one of them listens to their mother when I say..go forth and procreate ROFL....they are now off the hook, but only for a short time...Obviously, I can be very persuasive

Life changing chapter 1....

Ok so the 3rd thing happened today, so my brother was right..things do happen in 3's and once again, I can't share but will be given the go ahead soon...I hope because this news I'm gagging at the bit to share..it's my dream and wish come true..(yet again..) ok..my theory is..that Heather has finally hit heaven and that's why things have been happening this week. Call it weird but, before she died, she promised me that if she did die, when she got to heaven I would be the first person to find out...oh yes..sceptic that I am...YET...in one week, 3 things have happened that one could only dream about..yearn about..yet...here, is little old me...receiving, not one, not two but three dreams in less than 4 days...not a sceptic anymore..

SO my dear blog friends...here is, as promised...#1..just to stop you stressing and emailing me for hints LOL...grab a coffee, I don't know how long this is going to end up being LOL or leave now if you don't have time....ok..sitting comfortably, let's begin..

Almost one year ago, we moved into this house, I thought it was perfect BUT it wasn't I have been dreadfully unhappy, the driveway has driven me nuts..(pardon the pun), so much so that today I somehow managed to smash into Gary's boat and pull the bumper bar off my car..totally pull it off, i mean..here I am, stuck and not moving, wondering why..and Aaryn yells out..MUM your bumper is on the driveway..Gary was very rude, he swore at me in front of Megan...and all we could do was laugh...but oops, sorry, i have digressed from the story..now where was I..ah yes..unhappy with living here..There are 2 hospitals directly behind us, 2 funeral directors just before our street, one either side of the road..and a cemetary in front of us as the crow flies , I am surrounded by death..very bad feng shui indeed..anyway, being on a 3 yr plan, I am prepared for whatever is there to be dished out..

For about 5 yrs I've been driving past a house and saying to the boys, one day, that will be ours..just jokingly..until that is last week..NOW bear in mind, I've not been looking for another house, have had no intention of moving from here for 3 years..so why is it that NOW on Wednesday, I pick up the keys for my new home?? We move next Saturday..

To say this home is a dream is an understatement...4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms..large deck outside that leads to a Rotunda that overlooks farmland and bushland, yes it's almost in the country.. ...(why there are black cows down the back!!)..A galley kitchen very much like in UK but much nicer LOL i love the kitchen.....dining room, high ceilings with ornate cornices oh my, i cant wait to photograph them! The house is about 150 yrs old, it has a normal driveway, parking bay at the front..a huge tree at the bottom of the driveway..it's like a picture  postcard..AND..next week..I'll be living there..to say I'm happy and ecstatic is an understatement. dare i say..i shall be having a scraproom LOL yes, claimed that 4th bedroom as my own personal property..with french doors even, that lead out to back verandah!

Quote of the week was from Aaryn, when we took the boys to look at it...OH MY GOODNESS...All my life, I have wanted to live in a house with steps..thank you so much for making my life perfect..(poor boy..all his life..he's 11..such a long time to wait for steps LOL at least now his life is complete..what a lovely mother I am)

After being so unhappy here, what with drunken parties just about every week end that last until 3 am sometimes 5 am..um that would be the bikie neighbours next door not us LOL..council having cleared bushland so it now sounds like the freight trains are running through our lounge every night...do you know the freight trains run through Nambour ever 1.5 hours all night long..you didn't? well they do LOL..helicopters landing on hospital roofs during the night..frightened the beejeebies out of the me the first night I heard it, I thought we were being attacked LOL..so very loud, the walls shake too! Not to mention the deadly driveway, LOL and having been so ill for the last few weeks, i've not even been able to walk down to the mailbox without ventolin when i get to the top!..

In a nutshell, this house, found me, I didn't find it, heck, i wasn't even looking for a house..commitment and all that...SO to say it's a dream come true is an understatement..things like this, don't happen to little old me..it happens to other people..things are starting to happen and I'm enjoying being in the world again...

OH and another thing..Before Heather died, she gave me a lovely Gloxinia plant..which, unfortunately, died, just after she did, i was devastated at the loss, but absolutely refused to throw that pot away..2 weeks ago, I noticed that the pot that sat on my table with nothing but dirt in it, had leaves sprouting..yes indeed, that Gloxinia has sprung back to life...(perhaps the day she arrived in heaven, who knows, certainly another sign!) I am such a believer now..I do believe she is here with me..absolutely without doubt..

AND dream # 2??? all i can say is..I will know more next week for definite then I can share. It is work related and it is scary but exciting LOL

AND dream # 3, well, I'm not sure when I can share that, it's not my decision but...let's just say...AGHHHHHHHH.....so bloody exciting..it's even more exciting that the last 2!!!!!!!!!! Lets just say, that someone has made this little old lady one happy HAPPY person today..

Fish update

I saw Bray yesterday  for the first time in ages (like about 3 weeks). (picked him up from kindy)

We had very interesting chats.

 

Why hello Bray, I haven't seen you for ages, where have you been?

Oh well Nanna, I was a baby inside my mum's tummy and well, the doctor had to cut me out and then, when I comed out I was just here at school, doing painting and stuff.

ok..that explains why I haven't seen you..

The way that child's imagination works is amazing LOL

 

When we got back to our house, I quizzed him about the FISH!

I hear you ate Jamie's fish Bray..

mmm yeah

were they hard to catch?

mmm nope

what did they taste like..

ROLLS EYES      umm FISH!

pick Hayley up off floor!!!

i cant sleep...

i'm too nervous lol...keep your fingers crossed for me today and your toes and your legs (if you must lol)...say some prayer (although, Debbie say's I seem to have an angel on my shoulder this last week...I like to think that it's my darling Heather, helping me from above!!!!)s ....if all goes to plan..Life will take a new direction....so much happening here..I will share one part of the secret tomorrow night..if i remember..gosh i am a tease aren't i? lol....

I also want to wish MISH good luck for today, I will be thinking of you all day and sending vibes your way..EVERYTHING will be ok, don't stress until you have to!!!!!

and remember...visualisation really does work....I proved it this week...so far so good..one more hurdle to cross and we'll see how good this visualization really is hey LOL....

hehehee

I would be interested in hearing your theory Susan LOL..

I will hint that it has nothing to do with the pitter patter of any tiny feet unfortunately....

AND......I will share on monday..for that's when I am able to!

Health wise..i'm almost back to normal..well as normal as one can be lol..I'm back at work, very tired, but thats to be expected...but off all meds now so that is a good thing..

My operation has been set back for quite a few months as the doctor needs me to build my lungs back up I cant have anaesthetic while they are like they are..but that's ok, I dont mind waiting....

Ok..off to bed now..absolutely knackered and for some stupid reason I agreed to do 2 days of double shifts.....oh well...someone has to LOL...

WHY?? why not......

A couple of weeks ago, I had a call off Hayley, which I had forgotten about until this morning and just had to get it down before I forgot again...

She had taken master seek and destroy and his long suffering sister, to a friends house, which she doesn't do often LOL..Apparently Seek and Destroy was very well behaved there ...or so she thought LOL..

In the car on the way home..Little miss Blabber mouth says..

Mummy, it wasn't really nice of Brayden what he did to the fish was it...

What did he do?

OH mummy, he was playing with the fish you know...it wasn't very good..

What did he do..I think she was starting to panic now...

WELLLLL, mummy, he bit them in half and put them back in the water don't you know...

WHATTTTT????????????

oh dear me..it would appear that Mr Seek and Destroy, has a liking for Siamese Fighting Fish. He managed to catch them....bit yes bit them with his teeth...  bit them in half (SHUDDER) and then, put them back in their tanks as if nothing had happened...and the funniest thing  was....The owners of the fish, hadn't even noticed..When Hayley got brave enough to ring them..THEY HADN"T EVEN NOTICED....why wouldn't you notice your fish cut in half??? I wonder if they fed them...hahaha

..now the scary thing is...one half of a fish was  missing...I DO NOT want to think about where this may be...but...I do have my suspicions LOL...fish fingers anyone???

Watch this space~~~~~~~

I have exciting news...will share in a few days..just have some finer details to sort out here then share I shall....

so damn exciting....well it is for me anyway lol

a photo share.

only one lol..

I did a photo shoot the other week for my friend Karly who was expecting baby #1..who incidentally was born on Sunday..a girl..Paige weighing a hefty 8lbs! not bad for a 1st baby!

I haven't had time to do any editing, so this morning, in between coughing fits, I've had a little play...

This is my favourite so far!

and this one...

cant wait to do Paige's photos!!!

Kennedy's Button!

I've had quite a few emails asking where Kennedy's button has gone! Well, remember awhile ago I had an idiot commenter? Well, in a nutshell, the comments it made, were very derogatory towards people with Down Syndrome, in fact, I really wish now that I had 'outed' this person and copied the comments to the blog so that my subscribers could see what a hideous stalker I have. I was so worried that this hideous revolting person (yes you know you are still here and yes, look, I'm talking about you) would go over to Renee's blog and start her crap there (I say her, because to be honest, I don't believe a man would be that bitchy and horrible, nor would a man bother with stalking my blog anyway!) so I reluctantly removed Ken's button. (sorry Renee!). I was going to just have the button with no link but couldn't work out how to take the link off, SO Renee, if you can help with that!!!!! lol

I've also decided to take comment moderation off, if the stalker wants to comment, let her, it's her time and effort, and honestly, if that's what gives her kicks, who am I to spoil her fun really. Perhaps she could put her own writing to her own blog and let us stalk her??? THAT would be too easy hey!

What does make me laugh in the blog stalking stakes is that how someone will come in, read your blog, take it all in, talk about it, YET totally ignore you, when they see you in real life, like you don't exist.

That cracks me and Jackie up all the time.

That's all I have to say on the matter LOL..Resuming normal programming now..

OH I've changed my template...does it look ok??

getting better!

I woke up this morning feeling almost human. After the first good nights sleep in nearly a week! Gary said I hardly coughed at all, so the steroids have definitely kicked in and today the pressure in my chest is totally gone! Yesterday the doctor said the pneumonia was beginning to break up and in a matter of days I should be getting on top of it, looks like he was right! He did give me a whole week off work, so that I will be totally rested by the time I go back, which has turned out really well as the kids being on holidays, didn't need a sitter, they just sit me hahaha!

I go back to doc tomorrow to have another check on steroids and hoping to come off those little pills then! Gosh they make you bounce off the walls, this morning, i got up and took them earlier than usual so they would be out of my system by the time I go to bed, I like to sleep LOL.

Thank you to everyone for all your emails, comments and phone calls, sorry I haven't gotten around to answering them all, I'm spending short bursts at computer and taking docs advise and resting..how unlike me LOL..

How Can??

something as simple as Asthma suddenly become pneumonia?

I have had asthma for the last 6 weeks, finally gave into it on Thurs and got Hayley to run me up to the emergency dept, my bum never even hit the seat..Amazing what power not breathing brings in places like that! (considering we sat for over 4 hours on Tues night with Bray, obviously  NOT as important as his Nanna, but that is another story, and he is ok!)

I was hooked up to a nebulizer, stabbed 4 times in both hands because the nurse couldn't find a vein and when she did find one I had no blood..I tell you..she looked at me accusingly and said..YOU HAVE NO BLOOD! I have to get a doctor..ok, i was past caring anyway..The doctor came in and said, take it out and put it in the other hand, she chucked a bit of a tanty (not unlike All Saints lol) so the doctor decided it would be better for him to do it himself. After getting the canula into a vein via my whole hand he managed to get a few drops of blood. then decided that perhaps i was super dehydrated so ordered fluids. That worked..They did cultures, chest X-rays, everything apparently everything was clear. Gave me some phenergan for my swollen eye (allergy to pain killers) and after 6 hours of poking and prodding thought perhaps I would be better off at home as now I was breathing a lot better and would I please go to my GP for a follow up visit. I felt great so thought yup, this was easy, I'm all better..

WRONG! by 3am this morning, I felt like the truck that had run over me the day before had now reversed over me, luckily I had an 8 am appointment with my GP so i just sat and concentrated on breathing etc until I had to go see him. He took one look at me, threw a nebulizer on me, double dose! examined me and was horrified that the hospital sent me home, rang the hospital, got someone to look at my X-rays while he was on the phone, told them what to look for..oh yes...lookie here, the lady has PNEUMONIA! how ever did we miss that? Would I like to go back to the hospital..NO WAY...so I'm home, on steroids (i shall look like a weightlifter when I'm done lol) and antibiotics, go back to doc on Monday and if no better, then hospital it shall be!

on the bright side

Aaryn has been looking after me beautifully, water, cordial and ginger beer every half hour (so I don't deflate! I think be meant dehydrate lol) and panadol every 4 hours on the dot!  Salada crackers with a little butter, if I need to eat..He would cook a roast, but isn't allowed to use the oven and also he would make me coffee or tea but his dad said, he's not allowed to use the kettle yet, he's too short LOL @ that one!

He put socks on me so my feet wouldn't get cold and insisted I have 4 blankets on me and just incase i did get cold, he then opened my bedroom blinds so the sun would shine straight on me and warm me up.

Why I just sweated that damn pneumonia right out of me i think LOL. He has picked every flower/weed in sight and surrounded me with them, which has done wonders for the hayfever,

He then reminded me that if and when I die not to forget the TV is his!

i should have known there were ulterior motives. I'm also expecting a bill at the end of it all LOL

Cameron offers an..."are you ok" from his computer every now and again..Gary pops his head around the door, ready to run, as he asks, can I get you anything and looks relieved when I say No thank you Aaryn has got it covered.

At least out of 5 children, I have one who cares *sigh* *woe is me*..

OK I'm off back to my couch, my loving son has asked if he may have the computer and don't I think it's time I had a sleep and lookie here, another glass of ginger beer!!

who would have thought that was good for dehydration LOL shame I can't have any Frangelico in it, that would make me sleep!

be back soon

I'll be in over the weekend to do a proper update and add some more photo's. To make my brother happy they will NOT be pics of flowers LOL..will have to talk the kids into posing...

Been playing with the camera!

Had a bit of a play with the camera, haven't used it very much, had too much going on in my head! but here's a few pics i took in & around the garden !  I'm sure with practise I will get better!!

 

Nothing sweet about me!!!!!!

IDIOTIC COMMENTORS!

I am having problems with a particular Anonymous IDIOT who likes to leave stupid and rude comments, this idiot is obviously a subscriber to my blog as IT gets in as soon as it hit bloglines and leaves ridiculous comments that are just RIDICULOUS i guess lol.

SO, rather than have the IDIOT comment further on the 3 posts that i have had to delete, I just found it easier to delete the whole post rather than IDIOTS comment IYKWIM...

Is there a way of making blogs private so that even though you are subscribed you have to log in to see them? I think there is, I just have to work it out! Any ideas? email me! ta muchly.

You will be able to read the deleted posts if your subscribed through bloglines but if not..well, you've missed out! unfortunately, you wont be able to comment on them..

 

although, must say, if you are a subscriber, mr/mrs idiot, i would like you to unsub now as I don't like the idea of someone like YOU reading this blog..you have had your 5 minutes of fame, now piddle off and go somewhere else..perhaps...the arctic??

oh gosh i am so dumb...i can turn on comment moderation...having a senior moment LOL will try that!

a catch up...(this may take a while)

Boy where has the time gone? Spring has sprung and with it, renewed energy and a clean house! It's not quite 10.30am and already the house is sparkling clean, cleansed from top to bottom it helps having a tiny house sometime lol so I have no excuse for not catching up with blog news. It's going to be long, so grab a coffee and get comfy or just press the x if you cant be bothered to stay. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED lol

THE ENGAGEMENT PARTY

It was fantastic, I have blogged about it, but here are a few photo's from the night. Chris and I love a dance as the pictures prove LOL

 

Meg and Luke cutting the cake

The Cake and album

Emily said something funny about Chris being

"in her face all the time" out of the mouths of babes.

Aaryn, just thinks the whole thing is just too hilarious!

so that's the engagement party..all wrapped up!

Next.....

MY NEW DSLR

Yes I know, this should have been first LOL but sometimes you just have to put others before yourself LOL.

She's finally here, my new DSLR the Canon 1000D, looking very beautiful in her camera bag, that the gorgeous young man at Camera House gave me for being nice LOL he gave me heaps of free stuff, such lovely boys they are in there, and cute too!!!

We trotted off to Yaroomba beach yesterday to have a play with the new baby, oh yeah, got the kids some exercise too i guess, we didn't stay too long as miss Emily decided she wasn't well and had a  bit of a temperature, we got back to Hayley's and madam was asleep in less than 3 minutes of hitting the front door.

Here are some pics taken with the new camera, bearing in mind that it was the first time i had actually used the camera and i can only get better! I'm so in love with this camera!

this pic shows miss emily sitting on the beach all forlorn, behind her is Maroochydore, you cant see it, it's right there on the horizon, which is very hazy due to weather!

 

zoomed in, I was standing in the exact same spot, I just zoomed in..and not all the way either! this is Old Woman Island, just off Maroochydore beach! it looks like a huge whale!

Maroochydore, zoomed in... see there really is something there!

a man, playing with his kite.... he was having fun, and I was

having fun stalking him LOL

 

Gary, who didn't know I was taking his photo as I was far away!

Hayley too! Gotta love being paparazzi!!

I like Chinese!! or is he Japanese?? This is

Bruno, one of Bonnie's pups..so cute!

We were at the beach for 30 minutes and I only managed to take 137 photos, tut tut!

I'm off outside now to take some shots of the garden and to play around with different settings...I am loving having a rare day off!!

WELL

lookie here I am again!

all I can say is  MAMMA MIA IS FANTASTIC..I have just watched it and I think I shall watch it again after I've made a cuppa! There is something about ABBA that just has me twitching my toes wanting to dance even though I cant dance a step LOL..AND what about Pierce Brosnan mmmmm that man is gorgeous with a capital G but my goodness, he can't sing to save himself. Meryl Streep is just divine, I think she's ab fab! and boy she can hold a tune indeedy! Just a superb movie for sure!

OK off to watch it again..I cant wait to go to the pictures to see it on the big screen but the pc will suffice for now .. It may be a tad embarrassing at the pictures LOL I don't know if I would be able to not sing aloud, after all I've been singing along tonight, Cam and Aaryn think I'm loopy (they aren't far wrong there lol) thank goodness Gary isn't home, actually, if Gary was home, I wouldn't have been watching it LOL...righto...time for a bit more dancing queen I think....ABBA...how sad am I??? lol

do you think Megan and Luke will allow six or seven one or two ABBA songs at the wedding???? I hope so LOL perhaps I can seduce bribe the DJ???? lol

A quick hello and hug

For my little lady Kennedy all across the way in USA, Her halo has been giving her a bit of grief, she's getting better now, but I wanted to give her a big Tessie hug and kiss and let her know that I am thinking of her every single day!!

an update of sorts

 

Well it's been ages since I've had time to actually sit at the computer for any length of time, but here I am at last!

Where to begin..

oh yes, the Engagement party...it was a roaring success, the album was received with many tears, everyone who attended signed the pages I had made in readiness! So many compliments and many people wanting me to make them albums ( i refused LOL).

Chris and I made absolute idiots thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, a couple of bottles of wine, some music, great food and we were off with the pixies..Dancing and singing,  people were watching us probably jealous of our amazing dancing techniques left over from the 70's  trying to work out what we were doing! We had a great time. I shall share pics when I collect them from my niece who was kind enough to be the paparazzi for the evening because I was to damn lazy and drunk to be bothered taking photo's lol.

Work has calmed down now the toy sale is over..all I can say about that is....THANK GOD!

I had my nails done yesterday. New acrylics. I used to get them done all the time but once again laziness got in the way and I could never be stuffed    life got in the way and I never had the time. I decided I would try Professional Nails, just a few shops away from work..HMMMM...the nails look ok, not the same as when I used to get them done at the salon but that has closed down so I had best get over it   so off I went and now know what it is like to be on a conveyor belt in a production line!!!

let me explain

• 3 rows of tables, with 5 chairs at each with a lady sitting on each chair. I was 2nd from the wall end, this looks interesting! Technicians wearing surgical masks..OH MY!
• along comes a young Chinese  fellow..he sits down and starts to prep my nails..WHAT THE?? ok, so it's equal opportunity obviously that would be because he is MALE not Chinese ok! lol, he files nails with what looks like a tiny grinder similar to one used in metal work..then he glues on nail tips, cuts them down to the length..asks me if  the length is ok..I smile and say, perhaps a bit shorter? he says..NO, I think they ok like that..ok so I will shut-up now.
• He stands up, says  from behind his mask .  your nails are disgusting, I need help here   don't move, someone will be right back...and off he trots..
• A young Chinese lady appears, she's the acrylic brusher, well that's what I like to call her, she brushes on the acrylic, makes my nails look almost real, then says something in what I think was Chinaustralian, I must have looked at her like some sort of stunned mullet, she starts to throw her hands around and making all sorts of gestures..ahh ok..she wants me to go wash my hands and pay before she applies the polish...why didn't she just say that??
• Off I go, wash, pay to yet another Chinese girl..you want clear polish, you want special polish?? ok you go sit now and wait ..So I sit and I wait.
• Along comes the nail polish girl, yet another Chinese lass, she applies the polish, orders me to put my fingers in the polish dryer contraption and leaves..
• Then out of nowhere appears Fellow #1 again, this time he is polish checker..polish is dry, points to door, GOODBYE..

All this in 20 minutes and not one word of welcome spoken, you've heard of battery hens? I believe these are battery technicians, no one spoke to anyone, if you looked around the room, ladies just sat and stared like they were  on some sort of drug LOL the lady next to me, though, coughed and coughed and coughed, they reluctantly gave her a glass of water, I wanted to punch her but instead gave her a soother, which was met with glares from the young man operating on her, I must have broken nail protocol LOL. I did however have a breakthrough with the young man doing my nails, the aforementioned young man, had a blue-tooth in his ear, unbeknown to me, he started to say, Hello, over and over again, while sort of looking at me well he must have been cross-eyed i thought he was looking at me  so i smiled and said Hello back..he got cross and started to say loudly HELLO HELLO..pulled his mask down and said HELLO once more, that was when i realized he had a hands free in his ear..and that he actually was the owner so he was allowed to talk.. The poor boy operating on me, burst out laughing and was promptly reprimanded in Chinese from Mr bossy boots, for laughing..To which the boy replied, don't blame me, blame this stupid woman whose hand's I am mutilating, she's the one who answered you.

I am still trying to work out why they wore surgical masks..do you think it's so we won't recognise our torturer? perhaps that's why they try to confuse you with so many technicians..

and what I found really, really funny was just before I finished work, my last customer was one of the technicians from the production line..I recognised her from her uniform!  she told me in broken English, my nails looked lovely, where did I get them done, I told her, then she said, very beautiful, they look very natural, you very lucky lady! and acted like she had never seen fake nails in her life..

I'm not sure if I'll go back again LOL I might bribe see Monika to do my infills,
