baby toenail and mosquito bites...

Yesterday, we were packing up the kids to go out to do some errands, and I slid my foot into my leather sandal and my little toenail caught the edge I guess and ripped the nail off on two sides; the left and the bottom. It is hanging on on the right side. I don't know what to do? cut it off? wait for it to fall off? will it grow back? how ugly is that!

And, last Wednesday I went for coffee in the evening in the Fort with my two friends Cynthia and Jasmyne and I got eaten alive by those skeeters! I have 12 bites all around my big bulgy "main vein" on my vein leg. (varicose veins) How gross. And so itchy!!! They got me also on my arm, my hip, and legs and even in the arch of my foot. I must have good blood or something! Do mosquitoes like negative blood? lol. Thankfully the itchy is gone! Just ugly red marks to remind me.

Anyways. That is all.

I've heard that mosquitoes are attracted to estrogen. How fun is that???

Skeeters-yikes. Some people are slow learners aye Cynthia? Next time, sit indoors or DEET yourselves good and plenty. I know they love me too, sorry I passed on that bad gene.

See, the baby is most likely a girl...extra estrogen...mosquitos loved my Mom too. She had 3 girls...lol

Cynthia...well?!

Oh the joys Cathy... oh the joys!! lol

I would probably just put a bandaid on the nail so that it doesn't catch on anything and rip off :( Poor thing.

Well, it is too late for a bandaid. The toenail fell off. My next pedicure is going to look very odd lol! Maybe she can paint the skin lol! Just kidding.
