As Ru Paul said... I love the smell of Ben Gay in the morning
No matter which holidays you celebrate this time of year, I'm wishing you a wonderful time, full of comfort, happiness, laughter, fellowship, and hope. May miracles gently descend into your hands, may your cookies be warm, and may goodness and love sprout within our hearts.
Happy holidays! ⭐🎅🎄☃️⭐

When someone tells us how not to grow, it's our task to assess why they would place limations on others so, and decide if that advice is nourishment or poisonous for our goals, dreams, and growth. Not every piece of advice is meant to lift.. sometimes it's to stagnate and sabotage. Follow your heart

Planning a trip to Little Tokyo sometime in January, I'm so excited to pick up lots of my fave snacks; Especially some delicious chocolate and peanut butter fugetsu-do mochi 🤤 Plus a little Daiso shopping spree, followed by some karaoke and a quick trip to Ikea for my 3rd helmer.

A lot of people dislike that a shade of white is Pantone's 2026 Color of the Year, but idk, I like it. It makes me think of big fluffy clouds, marble decor, fresh socks, doves... lots of refreshing imagery being evoked. I'll take this over shades of beige anyday!

Decorating snowballed into a bigger kitchen cleaning night. Sweeping, mopping, dishes, cleaning out the sink / setting up the Zojirushi water boiler. It's officially tea season!!
Put up the holiday tree and stockings tonight. Living room is 100% more cozy. 😊 We'll see how long it stays up this time lol

I think it's easy to say Plus Life Lacquer is my top small business brand for 2025. 💅
I should do a tier list of fave brands for this year

I found a ladybug?? larvae??? on the underside of a swatch stick today. I'm mystified. How did it get there? What does it know? Who is it working for?? /j
(I set it free outside, but like... I don't see ladybugs around here at ALL. I'm confused how one could have flown inside and laid an egg)

After getting my new PC a year ago, I promised myself I would clean the fans every 6 months, but I just got around to doing it. It was... pretty damn dusty, but now the fans run much smoother / quieter, and hopefully everything will run a smidge smoother again. 🤞

I had to sweep away more spiders from around the backdoor. I found at least one spider hitched a ride on me (and found their corpse when I had JUST finished eatting lunch 🥴😖), and now I fear I will probably find a few bites somewhere on my person soon 😭

Ngl I was a sucker and fell for all the Eos 24 hour moisture body lotion ads, however... I've been way better at moisturizing my hands and oiling my cuticles because I placed it near my office doorway, so most times I leave from or return to that room, I squirt a little lotion and rehydrate.

I love peel off basecoat for making glitter polish removal easy, but I also dislike it just as much for basically letting chance and luck determine when I'm done wearing a manicure (more like when the manicure is done with ME)

I saw plenty of people yesterday sharing defeatist propganda. I respect if they are feeling all doom n' gloom, but despair is contaigous, just like hope. Why would we want to share despair, knowing it could break those who need hope the most? Let's leave that shit in Danganronpa please

The more I think about creating nail content, the more I think it'd be really cute and fun to use a vtube model

My last manicure was in part inspired by a stunning polish by Tyler's Trinkets is offering for PPU, called "It Was Never Just a Phase."
The color combo is so Tokidori and Avril Lavine coded, they really nailed the name and the inspiration!
It shall be mine 😈

I sadly had a significant crash out in the start of pride month, and I've always remembered I only posted 2 pride manicures. I always wanted to continue my pride flag inspired manicures, despite it not being pride month. Maybe I'll work on chipping those in over time, rather than all at once.

I adore Danessa Myricks sm. I feel her intentions in her messages, and I can sense how those are imbued into her brand and concept; I truly feel she wants to nourish the creative soul.

I either want to upgrade my phone for a better camera, or get a decent digital camera sometime soon. Love my current phone, but it's considered old now (either '17 or '19 idrr) and I feel the camera shows it
