Cutting my mom's nails

State of her nails 30 minutes ago...

Torture devices... (thankfully no one for my nails!)

Checking my own nails.... nope... they don't need to be cut... for now!

A little massage to start...

A final massage....

I am thirsty after the manicure...

Ok! Lets go to check....

The result!


************************************************

Girl Girl
gave me this award. It is the BFF Gold Card!

Thanks Girl Girl!

I'm going to pass to my friends:

2. Four have to be dedicated followers of your blog.

Not an easy decision because I'd like to pass it to everyone! But rules are rules...

On Maggie and Mitch's blog I saw they played "Needs"
They said that all you have to do is Google your first name with the word "needs" behind it and post the results. I am thinking I have financial problems because I got... more than 10 times....

"LORENZA NEEDS A LOAN"

I hope you all had a great weekend

If Google says you need a loan, I can lend you a few dog bones and biscuits. Let me know! I hate getting my nails cut. Good thing your nails weren't cut today. I must admit, your mom's nails are super clean!

Scruffy, Lacie and Stanley's Place said...

My goodness, Lorenza..ur mom has tons of nail torture devices!!! We loved the massage you gave her...and you did a great job on her cuticles!!!!!

I need to go and trim mine...darn things get soooooooo long!!!

Sorry Lorenza. I'm broke. I can't give you a loan. Maybe after payday, whenever that is.

Did you mom really want her nails so low? They were so pretty.

Xsara and Tani said...

I agree with Patience, I think Xsara would prefer to do my nails rather than have her nails trimmed

Pedro said...

Lorenza,

I did the "needs" thing and got:
1. Pedro needs to hang up the glove
2. Pedro needs a home
3. Pedro needs to lead by example

1 & 3 were about Pedro Martinez, 2 was about a dog that was up for adoption in 2006.

Good job on the manicure. Did your mom get sick of the nails? My mom chopped all of hers off about a month ago and they're finally starting to grow back.
