Great advice, Katie. I have this problem so I'm going to try brushing my nails!

I love the whole tradition of Easter Baskets and Easter Egg hunts - we always have great fun at Easter time. I'm getting nostalgic for it now :)

Hi Katie! Such a good article on how to avoid bad cuticles. I sure needed this information. It drives me crazy when I get a "hang nail" and I'm thrilled to have this information. Thanks so much for the advice.

I wizzed, tweeted,shared with everyone in the free world, but Katie said it best. Thank you ole wise one...;)
Wizzed now that just sounds like something out of control. wiz, wiz, wizzley all the way. :)

I tend to ignore my cuticles...until winter when they become more cracked and dry (like now!), and then I start peeling or biting them...Ugh!
I like your advice of keeping the nail brush in the shower, and to apply lotion to keep the cuticle lifted away from the nail.

That sounds great - the move, I mean. If this writing thing works, My family would love to move to California, I hear the weather is always nice and warm. I just love the idea of it! It is freezing over here at the moment. Difficult to stay happy in this weather.

It really is surprising the difference lack of sunlight makes.

You sound fun too. Pity we live thousands of miles apart. Thank you soo much for your kind words. This online writing is new to me but I have always loved to put my thoughts down. No one else was allowed to read it before (except my hubby and it would have gone to my girls when they were older) so it is nice to hear you enjoy reading. Thanks again for stopping by!

This is definitely real. I have it big time. That's why I'm trying to move back to Southern CA. I take antidepressants for depression in general. My psychiatrist told me to take vitamin D and to sit under lighting for 20 minutes a day. It really makes a difference.

Nonny, I wish we lived close to each other. I would love to talk to you. You have a good skill and it's nice that you can work part time at it and have more time to work on your passion. I really enjoy reading your articles.

I really could not believe it when I read she had passed on. She was too young and yes, we do seem to be losing a lot of the great talents recently.

Her life did seem to go downhill the last few years although I was never really aware of all that. I just tend to focus on the music and leave them to get on with their lives. I had to write out my thoughts because she had been a part of me as I grew up and now she is gone...

Too sad!

katiem2, I'm glad. I hope you're writing a book, with or without pinterest. You really should!

I've just started using pinterest and I must say I like it. Thanks for the added tips on utilizing it to write a book or novel, it makes good sense.

Why thank you Andy, so kind of you to say. :)

I really appreciate how open you are in your writing. I love your style. Thank you for such an informative and entertaining article!

Dickens is one of my favorite authors.
