I am entirely unsatisfied by the manicure I received today. It felt great, but the pink tint the manicurist used was very dark and she didn’t smooth out the white tips very well. Also, it seems that she didn’t apply a very good layer of top coat because as I washed my hair just now, the polish from two nails just peeled right off. Also, when she dipped my right hand into the paraffin wax, she touched my middle finger to the bottom of the hot container and it took the warm shower water to make me realize that I have a blister.

I’m baking to have something for my bridesmaids, flower girls, and a couple of friends to snack on while they hang out with me tomorrow morning as we do hair and makeup before caravanning over to the chapel. Before I head to bed tonight, I need to finish the dishes that are piled in the sink,...
