i'd at least wait til tomorrow to see if anything pops up. that is if the code doesn't expire til tomorrow night which i think is right.

Sorry to hear that. It's really tough for the person on the other end; I've been there. They sound just like my parents. I hope this family member of yours will find some help and get the perspective that they need to get out of this rut. It can be difficult when they feel like no one is on their side fighting for/with them.
Comfort Haven't we all. nod Shocking how they can turn anything into something about themselves. Well, I guess it shouldn't be shocking after all these years, but still Roll Eyes (Sarcastic) . The relative has recently picked up a significant other, which will even them out for a while, but when that person's gone... Dontknow

Confess - how many swimsuits do you have? Stick Out Tongue I want to say I have 10 of which I only wear 3 - 4.
Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
Sounds like something my mother would do. Hope they get better.
Thanks Smilie It's funny you would say that... I said "parents" but I definitely mean my mom Teehee .


Out of curiosity, what will you wear with the sateen pencil skirts?

The peplum tops would look nice. Button ups would look nice too. Sweaters or tanks! Just about anything. I'll out together some outfits when they come Whee!

the red is paired with peplum on the model. it's nice to have all color options if they fit well, but i'm not that bold. i ordered the prints though because they're just black and white Big Grin

I know last summer when we went to Florida in July I took over 20 swimsuits. 22 or 23 it was. I had my surgery in march and dh figured out I'd bought at least that many since then. He was like Faint Teehee but he lived so all is well. I love them and bs has them so cheap that I buy, buy, buy them like a mad crazy woman Woot!!!

My poor child wrecked on his bike last night & broke his arm in two places. Frown He's getting it set now. I don't know what he'll do about classes. The breaks are at his wrist & elbow on his right arm. He's right handed. Kurpee, any suggestions?

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
i just wear polish on my toes. it's normally opi. i get pedicures and take my polish and use the salon's base and top coat. my toe polish lasts about a month normally.
My toenail polish usually lasts at least a couple weeks, & I don't use base coat or top coat. Maybe, I should start doing that on my fingernails. Stick Out Tongue

Quote from kurips :
the denim version of those.
have you tried them on yet?
I tried on the salmon pair. I really like them. As I was discussing with nerdi, I have the bird leg affect in them. It shouldn't be hard to take the legs in a little though. I'm definitely keeping them. I am glad they have a belt, because I need it. Now, I'm tempted to buy the denim ones. I was thinking of ordering http://www.express.com/clothing/4.../cat320019 &/or http://www.express.com/clothing/4.../cat320019. Have you tried those?

Quote from nerdicus :
currently i use orly bonder base and seche vite top coat. i've been using that for quite some time now. i use it with all my polishes, which are a mix of zoya, essie, opi, deborah lippmann, and others... with my base/top i find zoya stays the best, DL 2nd. zoya will last over a week for me if my nails are short. (if they're longer there's usually more environmental factors that cause them to chip)

using SV wrong was what was causing my peeling before, i think. it's not good to wait too long in between base coat and polish, i think. now i just try to do everything in 5-10 minute increments. that means i'm usually doing my nails while i'm watching tv shows kuz otherwise i don't have 30-40 minutes to just sit there. i love SV bc after i apply it, in 5-10 min it's pretty dry. if you wait till your polish is already dry to apply SV i think it has more of a likelihood of peeling.

i think most base coats are the same tho. i like SV bc i'm not good at being careful with my nails and it's the fastest drying one. it does cause tip wear faster, but that's something i can live with.


i don't wash my feet nearly as much as i wash my hands. : ) i think the constant hand-washing is what wears np the most.
Thanks for the recommendation. I'll look for the SV topcoat. It sounds like that's the key to making polish last. I didn't know I shouldn't be letting my nails completely dry, before moving on to the next step. That's good to know. I'll look for the Orly Bonder also.

I'm obsessed with keeping my hands clean too. I used to work in pharmaceuticals & had to wash them often. Now, it's habit.

Quote from nerdicus :
i forgot - someone asked for photo of my new boots - wore them yesterday but forgot to post the pic. they look darker in the photo than they really are.
Nice outfit!

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
look for laser lipo groupons for cheap. i did that about 1.5 years ago and it helped and it hasn't came back. i've been working out though. i was working out then too it just didn't want to budge.
I need to have that done too.
