If I were to paint my nails anything other than what I consider neutrals: strong reds, browns, or black, I'd feel too constricted in clothing choices.

I was having this conversation with my mother and grandmother just last weekend -- my mother swung by a friend's house to borrow nail polish remover one time when she forgot about a big meeting and her nails clashed with her clothes. Heh.

That's great news, Lisah.

Oh, lisah, that's fantastic.

I have a new OPI blue on now, too! It started chipping right away though which always happens but always makes me sad. I don't really fear the not matching with it. I'm thinking it's, as they say, a POP of color for whatever outfit i'm wearing.

That is great, lisah and Bob!

Excellent news, lisah!

I don't care about my polish clashing with my clothes so much, but I have rings with stones in different colors, and if I have a really bright or saturated not-neutral color on, I'll stick to silver rings.

My favorite new "neutral" is a gorgeous navy blue.

Thanks, guys! We are feeling pretty lucky, for sure. We have a pre-op consult with the surgeon today and have about 3 pages of questions to ask. (Mine "When will he be able to resume his househusband chores?" I've gotten pretty spoiled having someone do all my laundry and wash the dishes, etc.! Hah!)

I'm so happy for Bob, lisah! Doctors must be pretty damn confident, then, which is a big relief, I'm sure.

They talked about his case in Tumor Board yesterday and this treatment plan was the consensus. I love the idea of Tumor Board!

There is a small hole in the outside wall of our office building. Occasionally a bird will come in and fly around.

I can hear a bird making noises in the ceiling right now.
