Tip: Gel nails

At first I was afraid, I was petrified. Thinking how my nails lived or how they died. And then I tried and now I hold my nails high!
Why? Cause its GEL! This is amazing and I love it. Its like $30 bucks, I know expensive for just a mani. Yet worth it. The color does not rub off or leave marks. The nails don't chip. Its a manicure that lasts 3 weeks easily if not the whole month.
So choose your color wisely as your stuck with it. Then it is a matter of how much grow out you can tolerate. You can have them filled for like $20. It is your own nails underneath and mine pretty strong and long. See

Garden moves outside

The garden continues or so I hope. I keep trying to be good to them but I really don't know how to be. I have left them outside for the past few days for the first time. I don't know if its good or inside my apt is better.


A few have totally died. They tried, I tried but their time was done. Maybe this is a clue not to try and start from seed.

Granted others mainly the tomato plants are doing well. Others are on the verge and can go either way. Oddly one plant managed to get some sort of little green bugs. How I don't know I took them outside for short trips. Yet know my apartment for sure doesn't have lady bugs to eat them.


Another reason why they are outside now. Well no one can say I'm not trying.

Good days

Lately I have been having some amazing days and I have not had a chance to write about any of them.

Like this weekend. I had a great time with new friends eating some bomb sushi at O-toro in Hayes. We then decided to dip back into to the past and see old friends. Kinda surprising to see who we all knew in common. The party was old school, map point, shuttle and all. Really has something going for it there. Yet I couldn't get in the groove of the music to dance. Place was decked out though. It is amazing what a little of lights and TLC can do.

Then to go out kayaking in Saulsalito Bay was darn interesting. It took Ms. A and I a bit to get our groove going. I was being a ham with all the freezing cold water slipping into my sleeve or down my back. We were enjoying it so much. Her Mr. A was rocking out on his own and my Mr. A and Mr. M were doing well too. It was great to see the seals and the differences in reactions. Like they would really be mean, they were following cause they liked us! So cool.

Then I met up with Mom (yes it's her day!) and we went to the Legion to see a paper historic fashion show called Pulp Fashion. It was seriously amazing how real it all looked. Many times I thought it was fabric. Then it was a good home cooked meal that my Dad prepared. MMM!

Other days that were great was my zippy day. I went to go visit my cuz Mr. R in the middle of nowhere. I enjoyed the zippy and spent the day driving all the way to SC pretty much. Got lunch at this cute place called Mosslanding Cafe. It was pretty darn good and seriously quiet. We then drove around the area and went for a mini hike. Hung out on the beach which is perfect for me since I LOVE IT! Then it was just you guessed it, driving back home! The next day when I dropped the car off I rocked out like I have been to music and started my day right.

I've had days in the sun that I get to enjoy reading or sleeping before work. I come in feeling totally refreshed and a bit darker!

Or like my day with Mr. AA. We drove around and took a hike in Marin Headlands. The hike took us to the beach where we enjoyed the sun and relaxed. We kept going driving around checking places out, then back to the city. We went to Dolores park to meet up with friends and sun again. .Then Mr.AA dropped me off to meet up with Rea and surprise her for her bday dinner.

Or the double date at O-toro sushi! Meeting my Mr.A's friends and hanging out with them. Just so many good days I have forgotten to write.
