Verb1.schlep - pull along heavily, like a heavy load against a resistance; "Can you shlep this bag of potatoes upstairs?"; "She pulled along a large trunk" pull along, shlep
drag - pull, as against a resistance; "He dragged the big suitcase behind him"; "These worries were dragging at him"
Before you all start thinking.................."Oh, she's put this in the wrong forum, this isn't to do with nails, I'm telling Miss"; please bear with me.
Ok, you may be wondering why I've given you all the definition of the word SCHLEP (pronounced Shlep). For those of you that don't know, this is Yiddish (Jewish slang) and a word that I've been brought up on. For example, my would say "I'm sick of schleping your shoes upstairs while you're sitting there watch The Partridge Family on telly".
Generally it's used to describe how somebody has had to walk wearily or carry something that was heavy and hard work but can also be used when referring to any arduous work.
Lost the will to live yet? Another minute and I'll be done and we'll have a new catch phrase that'll take the nail world by storm.
Since I watched that gorgeous little girly Amanda Fontanarrosa prepping my nails last week, I've become a prep junky. The penny has finally dropped that the more time spent prepping, the less time spent sorting out lifting and other problems at the infill/re-balance appointment.
So, here is my new catch phrase.....
"MORE PREP, LESS SCHLEP"
Oh yes..........I can see it now on my tombstone.
