Last day while cooking i had to put one ingredient immediately in the dish as it was perfect time to add that one.
The Ingredient was in the small plastic shopping bag as the the glass bottle in which i used to keep it was looking dirty so i decided to wash it first and then put the ingredient in.
Pure like me "i forgot" and now i had to open the knot of shopping bag immediately to add the ingredient in the dish .
Worst part of it that i just cut away my nails as i cut them once in a week .
I can't explain how hard i felt to untied the shopping bag and meanwhile the Right time to add the ingredient passed away .
My slow brain told me later that i could have use the kitchen scissor to cut the shopping bag instead of lamenting upon the cut away nails .
Whenever i cut my nails ( no need to tell that i cut them quite deep so they can take time to grow again) i miss them for many reasons one of them i shared ,
IF OUR FINGERS DON'T HAVE NAILS , FOR
WHAT REASON YOU WILL MISS THEM MOST ???
Yes this question is poking my head since yesterday ,I would love to know your answers dear friends!
Hope all is going wonderful in your beautiful worlds!
Take care and stay Blessed!
God Bless You All!!!
Nails are really important, protecting our fingertips and helping delicate movements. Because of gardening works and other chores, I keep mine short... but always polished. :)
ReplyDeleteBig hugs! xx
Wise words dear Sara!
DeleteWhen i cut them short my fingers feel hurt for few days
I wish mine would grow strong, they break and flake easily. I think they could be long just for beauty, well manicured hands look so lovely.
ReplyDeleteI love looking at hands with beautiful well polished nails. They grow the effect of well groomed personality
DeleteAlmost every part of ourselves serves a useful purpose. Your story illustrates that. I cannot imagine a life without nails.
ReplyDeleteVery true Brain and so do the nails though we think less about them
DeleteI love long nails ,but they breek everytime trough work with cleaners.. Think the grip when you hold something it fil strange when they are very short.... greetings,Joan
ReplyDeleteI agree
DeleteThey make the grip perfect
I do a lot of things by hand and it is always a challenge to present a decent hand to the world :-)

I love the way you use your hands dear amalia!
Deleteyour hands must be very creative and productive with all you make my friend
I use nail hardener on my nails. It helps protect them whilst cleaning etc. I don’t keep them long either.
ReplyDeletethis is very nice way to keep them clean dear Marie
DeleteI need them to play guitar.
ReplyDeletei am happy that you have this amazing hobby Joe !
Deletewhat about artificial one ,can't it work for guitar either
my nails grow fast as well, I don't keep them as short as you do by the description, I love to have clean white nails and although I do a lot of outdoor work I wear gloves to protect my nails,, I have never polished them but I keep a shine to my nails with coconut oil,, I use my nails so many times in a day,,
ReplyDeletei used to let them grow little longer and polish my nails occasionally in my youth but now most important thing i think to keep my nails clean so my kitchen work can stay safe so i don't let them grow .
Deletenails are something which do lot for us silently
If my nails were gone my wife would suffer for missing me scratching the itches on her back.
ReplyDeletehaha
Deletethat one is hilarious Jimmy!
Got to thinking about how I use my nails, and I decided that nails are useful in every hour from ...AM to ~10 PM.
ReplyDeleteyou are absolutely RIGHT Susan
ReplyDeleteThat's a great question, baili. Most of us take our fingernails for granted! I'm like you and cut my nails short, and when I do that, I realize how much I would miss them for picking up small things, like threads or pins when I'm sewing, or other small items when I am making crafts. I feel more clumsy when my nails are short for these activities.
ReplyDeleteso right dear Jenny!
Deletethe small things you mentioned here become so big when we don't have nails to pick them up for example many times my younger son laughs loudly when i try to pick up the fallen needle and can't then he picks it up for me :)
there is almost everything we take granted and don't have time to stop think , realize and be grateful for this
i keep my nails pretty short but i do have them manicured in a salon. i go once every 6 weeks and i love having them done!!!
ReplyDeleteand for that reason, i try not to use them in other ways so they do not break!!!
this is wonderful way to have short healthy nails dear Debbie!
DeleteMy nails don't grow fast and tend to break. I guess I have never had the problem of using my nails.
ReplyDeleteUnlike you mine grow pretty fast but in past when i tried to keep them long they often broke and doctors say it is due to the lack of calcium
DeleteI take magnesium in warm water in the evening before I go to bed. It helps me sleep, prevents leg cramps and shaky leg syndrome but really works to keep my nails tough. It really don't matter to me how long my nails are but my husband loves his back scratched! He really notices when I've cut and filed my nails down. It makes him sad, so I tell him it's just God's way of making sure he has time to scratch my back!
ReplyDeletehahaha
Deletei feel sorry for your husband when he is sad that you have no nails to scratch his back dear Toni.
i thought the scratching is problem of hotter areas like our's only lol
you shared very nice information about your evening routine before going to sleep ,i think i should also try this
I have short nails.
ReplyDeletegood for you dear Christine ,mine are too ,too short lol
DeleteMy nails are too long and I'm about to give them a good file to make them shorter.
ReplyDeleteMiss them also when they are shorter there are so many things one goes to do as you did Baili and miss them. Long nails can get in the way.
I bet you have very beautiful hands with pretty nails dear Margaret !
DeleteI keep my nails short too, but I do miss them for picking up things, undoing my shoe laces! LOL! Funny, we don't think about how useful our nails are!
ReplyDeleteso right that is what happens to me when my nails are cut ,first few days make me miss them horribly
DeleteI also cut my nails once a week.
ReplyDeleteAnd don't like to see long nails.
It's not my thing.
Have a nice weekend
oh i though being a man you may like the the long polished nails Pedro as mostly men or even women do b
Delete, but yes many of us don't find them appreciable as you do
I totally dislike long nails - i love the look of them but after a long career doing medical transcirption - typing i always kept them short and i always did a lot of yard work so i didn't want to always have a lot of dirt under them i had to keep out...what a job. I would miss though, the very small things that need opening if I didn't have at least a little length to my nails - like the top of a box of salt that has a small lid you pull up. and a million other things we need them for.
ReplyDeletei enjoy looking the long nails of beautiful ladies like models and actresses or other around but personally either i don't like long nails as keep them clean is another time consuming job and i am busy first and then lazy after business
ReplyDeletei agree there are millions other we need to be thankful for
I love long nails, and mine grow very quickly...but when they are too long I begin to catch them up on things and then it is really painful, also it is difficult to type with long nails.
ReplyDeleteWhen I cut them, I miss them...and if I had none at all, I imagine it would be very difficult to pick things up!
Until now I hadn't given them a thought, but you have made me realize how important nails are...thank you! ☺☺
Have a great weekend, my dear friend!!
Big Hugs xoxo
mine grow fast too dear Ygraine!
ReplyDeletei remember when i used to have little longer in past i many a times put scratches on my own face or any part of body inevitably ,yes keeping nails long are painful in some ways
I don't usually miss my nails when they are cut short because they have been cut because they tend to break and split but they have a mind of their own and for all my life they grow nicely when Spring comes and also again when Autumn comes. For some reason they just don't like Winter or Summer. Imagine that!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds pretty strange as never saw or may be never ponder upon the connection between nails and seasons dear Carol
DeleteHa! What a fun questions...well, I should never use my nails for this, but I do use them to unseal the Mason jars...I've broken too many that way! A good scratch feels like heaven on a mosquito bite lol...mine grow way too fast though!
ReplyDeleteSounds nalis are meant to scratch first of all dear Rain :)
DeleteI always keep mine cut short.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun and interesting question! This is something we don't think about but it's important. I keep my nails very short because I type very quickly on the keyboard and long nails get in the way. But when they're really short, I have trouble picking up small items and loosening knots and scratching an itch!
ReplyDeleteSo it is enough Clear that presence and absence of these tiny part of body makes huge difference in our daily life and chores dear Martha!
DeleteWe do use our nails for so many things! I have to keep mine very short because I am holding my tiny grandsons now. I don't want to scratch them! It is hard to untie a tight knot without them. xo Karen
ReplyDeleteHow sweet of you to cut your nails for your grandchildren dear Karen!
ReplyDeletei saw moms who put scratches on the faces of their kids but don't cut their nails ,this is pitiful situation for such infants who completely depend on their mothers to treat them gently .
when it come to untie a knot ,this is my first reason to miss my nails
I can never grow mine very long at all so I don't miss them I suppose! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting question, Baili! I keep my nails short because they get in the way when they're too long. I once had a set of false nails put on. They looked gorgeous, and my husband loved them. But I spent so much time protecting them and worrying about them and they were expensive to keep up. I was so glad when I went back to my natural nails. They may be short, but they protect the ends of my fingers which I appreciate.
