Wait a min. You're obsessed but you haven't actually started yet?

And you STILL don't have those nails off?

Good luck with both

I know I can do this! I know I can be good at this! I am confident.

And no, Nonny- these nail are still f-ing on. I swear. Don't let me get them again. I am not a girley nail kinda gal. I am utilitarian. I am sturdy. I am not fru-fru.

I didn't "let" you get them the first time. You know my opinion on them!

I'm sure you CAN hook rugs. But, WILL you?

C.I.W. said...
