Come out, come out of Lurk-dom!

and for the nail fans - do Jamberry wraps just wrap over your ordinary nails then not fake nail type thing?

I've wondered this as well...

They go over your normal nails, or fake nails if that's what you've got. Fake nails do too much damage to my nails though, so I just put them on my short little stumpy nails

We've decided to stop at Airlie Beach for two nights at the end of the month, anyone have any recommendations for anything? It will be my husband, our 3 year old and I

We stayed at Long Island.....ages ago, without kids. We really enjoyed the trip out to the Lower Reef.

Sorry BecBennett been too long since our last trek north to suggest anywhere.

I might have to investigate those nail things more - yes to go on my bitten stumpy nails!

I'm on the stumpy nail wagon myself... I don't know how people keep them long.

There are even more Disney Jamberry coming out this Wednesday...and they look sooo cute! Have a friend who is a consultant and convinced me to have a party, said I would only do it once the Disney ones come out. I am going to be so broke lol

 

[BecBennett]

Yeah do it! You'll get so much free stuff However keep in mind that you can't use your host benefits to get the Disney Collection wraps.

Me either, they stay a bit long when I wear my nail wraps, but as soon as they come off my nails break. My problem is I use them as tools (I can't understand how people with long nails avoid it!) and they break constantly.

I know my nails are great til I start using them as a tool - nails are so great for getting those stubborn bits of things off without scratching when cleaning or unpicking knots in jewelry or..... Normally its after a day of cleaning bathrooms or kitchen or washing floors or something weakens them and they start to break. Obviously cleaning is bad for you. Also I couldn't type on the computer all day at work with long nails. I am so impressed with those who can.

I started wrapping my Christmas presents today

Now that's organised! I'm impressed

 

[kaitmaree]

BecBennett, I want your wrapping skills! They look beautiful! I have 3/6 of my presents organised and 1/6th of those in a gift bag so I'm pretty happy myself!

 

[BecBennett]

I'm not all that organised, I just felt like being festive so I started wrapping, I'm not where near finished shopping oh and those bows are purchased like that, I just stuck them on

 

[Aussie Wendy]

Very cool! I was thinking I needed to start doing the same but won't be as creative as you!

 

[PrincessInOz]

Finally got my tree up!

 

[zanzibar138]

Finally? It's not even December yet

It looks lovely

How do you keep your cats away from it? I'm always too scared to put out my good ornaments because our two suddenly turn into playful kittens whenever the Christmas tree comes out!

The Bengal climbs up all over the tree. I don't even try to keep her out of it anymore. *sigh*
Most of the decorations are pretty sturdy. The Disney ones are the only ones that I'm worried about losing.

Lately, my tree has been up and running by Melbourne Cup day. I'm a little late this year!
