Be More Feminine - Day 24

Failing.  So much.  Ugh!

Today I took action to finally clean up my nails, remove the old and chipping nail polish, and just put a clear coat on them to tidy them up.  However, this comes after a day of falling into all the old and bad habits.  A WHOLE DAY!  Guys, it was bad.  I was biting and picking and pulling and fiddling all day.  My nail polish was all chipped and two of my nails were back down to their shortest possible length - i.e. nubs.

My husband even caught me doing it and chided me for it.  In fact, he kept berating for the fact that I was ruining something I'd "spent perfectly good money on," and he had a point!  And I was happy and thankful that he brought my attention to it (like 20 times that day, granted), but he did.  However, the fact that he had to call me out on it bummed me out more! I've been so good this month and there I went throwing it all away in one day.  Actually it was more like minutes really.  It only takes a few seconds to ruin your nails, and I was mindlessly pulling at them all day.

The leftover remnants of yesterday's bad habits rolled into today.  I didn't pick or bite at my nails, but the hang nails started.  If you ever wonder why you get hang nails or frayed skin around your cuticles, it's because you pick at them and break their natural and neutral state.

Must. Get. Better.  Duly noted.
