315th New Thing - Got a Mani & Pedi at Black Rose


I bought a from UrbanDealight (now CrowdSavings) that cost me $20 for a Manicure and Pedicure (a $47 value) at Black Rose Salon, a full service salon, in Littleton CO. My appointment was at 5:15pm with Melissa. I got a French mani & pedi. It took about an hour and a half to complete the service. Manicures began 5,000 years ago. French manicures are manicures designed to resemble natural nails, and are characterized by lack of base color, or natural pink base nails with white tips. The tips of the nails are painted white while the rest of the nails are polished in a pink or a suitable nude shade. French manicures may have originated in 18th-century Paris and were popular in the 1920s and 1930s. Melissa was very nice, friendly, and easy to talk to. She did a great job on my nails. I am considering do my hair and nails there for my wedding. I hope I don't mess up my nails like I usually do! (Below is an example of a French manicure, not my actual manicure.)

The area around the wound started getting bigger instead of smaller and oozing. Therefore, I went back to my doctor to check it out. She said I was having an allergic reaction to something, probably the Neosporin . She gave me some new ointment, Vanos , and said I should take Zyrtec until the area starts to get better. Vanos (fluocinonide) Cream is indicated for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid responsive dermatoses in patients. Best results are seen if used twice per day. Zyrtec (cetirizine) is an antihistamine that reduces the effects of natural chemical histamine in the body.

364th New Thing - Ate a Mini Lemon Bites

My co-workers birthday was today so to celebrate they bought her a vanilla cake, a chocolate cake, and mini lemon bites from Costco . I had some chocolate cake and a mini lemon bite.
