Schools out for summer.........

Pardon me Mr, Cooper but school starts again in two days. If you are unable to connect those two references, you missed out. I have one child out of sever still in school. She is an amazing child. Smart, funny, talented and beautiful. Just don't piss her off. It's like poking a bear. This nail look was all my idea. I was trying to come up with something using my fimo fruit slices and here is it. Sort of. I had originally purchased three neon colors from Salon Perfect at my local Wal-Mart to use with this look. Pink, green and orange. Not happening. The colors looked pretty but I put three coats over a white  base cost and it was still streaky. I chose a red instead. Now it looks like this. This has to be one of THE most uncomfortable positions I put my hands in. Grrrr. So I chose Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Sonic Bloom. One coat. Boo. Done. Gotta Love it. This is a pink-red-coral color. bright yet easy to apply. One coat. I buy all my supplies at Rite-Aid, Wal-Mart

Well...............

Here we are again. I didn't realize I hadn't posted last Sunday until I started my post today. You're right. I'm lame. I live in a State where there is still County Fair every year. When my kids were little, we went every year. Since my youngest is now 16, it's been awhile since I have gone.

I am use to the fair being jam packed with people I knew but this year it wasn't crowded. Sadly the Ag, Arts & Craft, Gardening and Commercial buildings were a bit empty. We had a ball. Space Burgers are amazing. Corn on the cob is delicious. Lion's Ears really crispy and sweet. Sadly we didn't get t

In a blink of an eye, they are all grown up.

It's so true. My baby just turned 16. Where did the time go? I have seven kids and I am so glad they all live so close. If you have never tried LED Gel Nail Polish, you should. It wears like Iron. Mine will last for two weeks without any chipping. There are a ton of brands out there to choose from. Major companies like OPI, CND, Orly and China Glaze all have some.  I chose an "Off brand." As Amazon is my favorite online store, I bought mine there. Iv'e tried SuperNail Pro Gel, EZ Nails TruGel and Sensationails. I have had good results with all of these brands. The color choices are endless. You can find the EZ Flow and SuperNail brands on Ebay for a good price. Sensationails you can find at WalMart or Rite-Aid. Here we go..... I bought my most recent gel polish from Amazon. This is one of those "off brands" but don't let that fool you. It lasts just as long asd the more expensive brands I've tried. When you use Gel polish, you need to use a
