LATE NEW YEARS RESOLUTION

So my New Years resolution this year was to stop a nasty habit, that I have had off and on for my entire life - chewing my fingernails. (I know, I know... ewwww gross!) It was mainly my stress reliever, but it was a habit also.

All of my life I have chewed them. Most of the time I didn't even realize I was doing it. I would gnaw them off until they bled a lot of times. On more than one occasion I can remember every finger hurting because I had gone on a rampage.

When I was sick, right before my wedding of course, I was extremely stressed out and gnawed every single one of them off, and since I had staph throughout my entire body, I couldn't get my nails done, even if I had the time to get them done. I tried my hardest to hide my hands in my wedding pictures, but after awhile, I was too tired to think about it.

So this year, I decided I was sick of my fingers looking horrific all of the time, and thus my resolution for 2009. It lasted about 30 seconds. I was waaaaaaaay too stressed out about being out of work, so I don't know what I was thinking.

Good news is, since I have been working, I haven't had the time to think about biting them and they are slowly trying to grow back. Right now I have little white lines on the top and everything! I'm kind of proud of myself for getting rid of this disgusting habit, so hopefully it will last!!

Pray it will
