Someone said I should I start a business? Are they telling the truth?
My creativity goes far beyond just nail art. These are legitimately my first two attempts at assembling charcuterie for any type of special occasion. I don’t know the roses or many of the fancier meat folding but again I’ve got that delusional confidence and I’m sure I could learn. For now I’ll just keep on doing it for my loved ones to show them how much they are appreciated but maybe one day instead of making birthday cakes I’ll be making Charcuterie ā€œcakesā€ for people as my side hustle.

Flight attendant drama and unintentional airport theory test. What a travel day!
After getting caught in some traffic going through Dallas, I arrived at the airport with nine minutes until boarding started. I was not planning on testing airport theory today, but that is indeed what happened. I was going through the general boarding security line so that’s always a gamble. It was a blessing that an entire men’s soccer team was behind me in line and not in front of me. So I breeze through security, but that could’ve made it interesting.
Then I was shocked when the flight attendant pushed two passengers by their knees, forcing them to un cross their legs because she claimed they were going to trip her and she wasn’t about to have that happen on her last day. Neither of those passengers had their foot sticking into the aisle. Both of them had tucked both of their feet under the seat in front of them with their legs crossed. One of these passengers was an old man who used a cane for assistance and when she pushed his knee and it didn’t immediately un cross, most likely due to his impeded mobility, she pushed his knee again while he was actively trying to move his legs because he didn’t understand and was confused as to why she was pushing him and not saying anything she immediately snapped you aren’t about to trip me today not on my last day. Meanwhile, multiple other flight attendants had walked past and not had any issue because he wasn’t obstructing the aisle. I understand that in some instances where the person sitting on the aisle may not be paying attention and crosses their leg that their foot could stick out and if you’re walking by, or walking backwards past and don’t see it that could cause a problem. OK that’s fine then just ask them to remain with both feet on the ground instead of crossed until you’re finished with service don’t just start pushing people. Just because it’s your last day doesn’t mean you get to be nasty. They are still human beings and that poor old man did not deserve to be shoved like that.

Did someone say pumpkin spice?!?! We did these nails three days before the Starbucks release in anticipation. The color scheme was picked purely off the vibe that we got from the name pumpkin spice. I must say it worked out quite well.

It’s official. I’m a failure! A foster failure that is šŸ˜‰
This little lady is a 9 year old Chihuahua mix who’s been returned twice at no fault of her own after being picked up as a stray at six years old. She’s the most polite and quiet little lady who is just so excited to greet her person when they come home. She was listed as not liking to be touched or picked up, but I knew the minute she crawled in my lap for the first time during a thunderstorm, and all she wanted was for me to hold her that she had picked me as her person. How could anyone look into those little eyes and say no after she picked you as her person?

So everyone say hi to miss Orchid! 🄰
She stays home with my 17 year old senior old man and is the best at keeping him company. We will continue to foster more seniors in the future and can’t wait for that adventure.

My toxic trait is accomplishing something simply because someone tells me I can’t. I’ve done the seemingly impossible fueled by pure delusion and sheer determination.
I may be only 5ft tall but give me a hammer, impact driver, and a Skil saw and you better believe I remodeled my whole kitchen.
Quit my job and was doubted that I wouldn’t make it as a brand new nail tech. Less than one year in and I was booked 3 to 4 weeks out with a waiting list.
Everyone says you can’t own a home at a young age in this economy anymore. Well don’t even get me started on that one. Homeowner at 26 because I know what I want and I locked in and made it happen.
I could keep going but you get the point. If you set your mind to something and refuse to give up you will go far.
