Delicate Things

I'm sitting here writing this having a conflict in my head.  You see, I woke up to five inches of snow, sleet and ice on top and decided I wasn't going to go to work today.  I had a feeling ahead of time this would happen and made sure my work for the next two days was done before I left work the day before.  The clinic had already cancelled all the patients for today due to the weather, but we are considered "essential personnel" and are supposed to be there later this morning.

Since I had my work caught up and had no patients, I didn't think it a big deal.  So I called in like I'm supposed to at 0630 expecting an answering machine.  What I got was my boss's boss on the phone.  She had slept there overnight.  Damn.  I told her I wouldn't be in and she asked me why.  Stupid me told her the truth, that I'm an hour away, that I'm snowed in, that more snow is expected later during rush hour home, that my work is done.  Damn me for not lying!  She of course, spouted policy and she had to warn me that I am essential personnel and expected to be there.  I know she has to say that and I heard the disappointment in her voice.  You see, I know her well and she likes me.

What am I going to do there if I do go in, my work is done and there are no patients to see?  What kind of sense does that make?  I could go in and catch up on my blog reading since I am way far behind on that. But how stupid is that?  I'm trying not to let her make me feel guilty.

What would you have done?????

And of course, this means I get to do my nails again!

Today's mani has very delicate designs to it.  Besides the work topic being a delicate situation, the mani I did is also delicate.

Here is the silly bottle shot.

This is Liquid Sky Lacquer Swerve, Wink and Enchanted Waterfall.

I started with skittles, but forgot to take pictures before I started stamping.  Pretend you don't see that yet!!!

Poor Swerve got covered up before you could see the gorgeous blueness!

As you can see, I chose a gorgeous rather detailed image to stamp with.  This is Cici&Sisi plate 4.  Here are the results.  I used Konad stamping polish in Royal Purple.

I am so happy with how these designs came out!  They have so much detailing to them. So awesome!

Here is the plate I used.

So what would you have done?  Gone to work and sat there? Or stayed home and done your nails?

Until next time people. Any thoughts out there?
