Long nails.

July 16, 2026

Day 3,411

Thankful for: 

A day to work from home. 

Being able to work with the tv on in the background. It feels more cozy. 

Being able to be near Addy, Tobin, and Artemis all day. It's always nice to be near my family. 

Texts from Matt. 

A cool home. I am so glad to have refuge from the horrible heat. 

Tomorrow is Friday. 

Addy has long nails now because she does press on nails. Matt and I are always asking Addy to scratch our backs with her long nails, but she doesn't want to. Matt and I said that we were going to create nails that could be placed on the finger tips for the sole purpose of scratching. Matt said, "It probably already exists." It does. He ordered some from Amazon and they arrived today. Now Matt and I will take turns scratching each other's backs with some really fancy nail tips. We're pretty excited about it. 

I'm doing many interviews tomorrow. I'm praying they go well and are successful. 

A day to rest my body from exercise. I needed a quieter day for my body after over 15,000 steps yesterday from moving plus a full workout at the gym. I am proud that I did it, but I was so glad to rest today. 

Hugs and kisses from my kids. 

When you pause Pollyanna at just the right time! 

Nails for scratching!
