The new normal, it’s June 2020, if you are reading this you are Blessed to still be alive, lets always keep in mind the lives we lost so far to the Corona Virus, Covid-19, and pray that a vaccine is created soon. Now that we have being indoor for 2 months, simple things like doing the nails, now they need a special protocol, first of all, in the new new normal, doing nails, may require an appointment so that the business can keep up compliance, with City and State regulations, follow the rules, do call ahead to avoid delays.
Now that you have your appointment the new normal requires that you, are not feeling sick, and wearing mask, if by now you do not have at a couple masks inside your house and car, you are not taking this 2020 pandemic situation serious, the place I went required a mask to enter. Then it gets better, they will take your temperature, using one of those cool no contact thermometers, and you better not have a fever.
Then it gets really interesting, they will bring you a piece of paper, where you will sign to confirm that you are not sick, not traveled from any red zone, and I am sure you waive your right to sue, if you happen to die from the nail appointment. When I went to skydive I signed something like that, even watched a video of the inventor of the device we used to jump, but to do the nails was just to funny, just sign it, and move on with your day.
Lastly, the plexiglass between stations (good stocks to watch), was the final touch, you probably noticed the same plexiglass on the cashiers all over the country, same one there, the nail team have being using masks for years, so the only change was that now I was using the same type of masks.
Friends, it feels good to have a small sense of normal, the new normal at least, plus my nails were huge, so it was time, if you never done your toe nails before you do not know what you are missing, first time I did after I got sick and the right hand went on vacation, back then I got the super special last year ($75), but now I just get the basic one ($25), the chair massages you, the lady massages your feet and your lower leg, the lady will cut your nails, much better that I used to do at home, normal again, not really, but this is the new normal, and little by little we will start adjusting to the new reality, honor the dead by living the best life you can. Be Safe.
