Lol, thank you! They break unevenly often because of the different jobs that I do but I have been trying to take better care of them lately. What has surely also helped is that we have spent at least the last year transitioning out of farm focuses. We still have a pony and a turkey (but only til thanksgiving) but that is it and it is really a good thing! Between my health problems and some increases in my children's needs as they grow, what was once the best thing I could think of to do for them (growing milk and meat, vegetables and eggs) became a distraction from the different needs they have now with school, speech and occupational therapy etc. so slowly but surely we have phased these things out (lovely and important as they are in their own right) and honestly, my health has greatly improved and consequently my nails and skin too
it is a great pleasure to paint them pink and try to do silly yorkie decals on a warm night inside with Lilah curled up on my lap. Of course ponies still require some hay hauling muck treading fence work in the rain- but nothing like we used to do! Whew!
