A Sad Day for Dom!!!

I never wanted to be one of those women who had crazy long nails and protected them at all cost!  But, OMG, it happened.  I never had pretty natural nails so when they started growing I just couldn't bring myself to cut them.  A couple of weeks ago I got a really small crack in the side of my middle finger nail.  The break was so close to the quick that if I cut it or let it rip the nail would bleed for sure!

So, the save the nail game began!  A few weeks of filing, gluing, polishing and a last ditch effort of Super Gluing resulted in me finally deciding to cut my nails down. (super sad face)  I did manage to save the nail for that long but I was getting tired of having to baby my right hand and make sure that I didn't get my nail caught on anything.  Every time I did the dishes I would have to clean and dry and re-glue my nail!  Talk about a pain in the ass.  

The long and short of it is,  I wanted to document my nails before and after and share it with you guys!  

Awe... I keep telling myself that they will grow back!

OMG!!!!!!! NO!!!!!!!! 

The final product before filing!  

I think I will feel better once I polish them and make them look pretty again.  I know I sound like such a dork but any words of support and encouragement would be greatly appreciated!  LOL!

Do you guys like short nails or long nails?  Let me know what you think.
