File my nails every friday evening

Had a soak, etc even :) My nails have been looking lovely, in fact I had to file quite a lot of last night because they were getting too long to be practical for me!

My nails stay neat all week long :)
Often the day after I file I get a small crack on the edge of a nail, which then snaps off but usually it holds up with a short spot of filing to smooth the edge, and then they all seem to last until the following Friday thank goodness!
You know, I think they really are becoming stronger!

Thanks to the reminders I set on 43 things emailing me each week :)
Even if it doesn’t actually make them stronger, it feels good to have a specific day to file them! They stayed neat this past two weeks.

I read somewhere that Friday evenings are an auspicious Lunar time to tend to one’s nails, and that filing at this time will result in much stronger nails. Tonight is Friday, it has to be after sundown so I am going to do them in a short while when I go to bed. It will be the second Friday, I keep my nails about 4mm long and squarish, and I don’t use synthetic products on them (no polish) as I make all my own beauty preparations from natural ingredients.

Anyway I wanted to keep this on my list of 43things as a reminder that I want to keep this up!
