Today was manicure day at the retirement home...and it's always a hoot with these ladies. We always have these big laughs and I come away from there feeling happy and rejuvenated...and thankful.
I was working on some beautiful hands today - although the lady thought that she was "old" and said her hands were awful. That everything about her was awful. I said no - that's not true. Your hands are beautiful (which they were) and she was lovely. So onto the final step of our manicure...nail polish. I stood up and was digging through our bin (which has about 85 bottles of colour) and asked the lady "What's your fancy"? She replied "Well, I'd like him to be 6'2", with eyes of blue". We all started laughing! God, it was so funny. We kept her laughing after that and she seemed a bit more upbeat...well, if she can still fancy a man, she can't be that old!!!
Keep smiling!
