Better late then never....

Hello:

I hope it is nice where you are as it is where I am. It's beautiful. I took a road trip with 4 of  my  kids this Saturday. We went to a wedding reception in honor of my daughter and my new son-in-law.
It was a small get together but nice just the same.  There was cupcakes with frosting that tasted like ice cream, chocolate covered strawberries, spinach dip and bread, lovely pink cookies and pulled pork sliders. Thank you Shannon for all your hard work.

The funnest part of the day was when we were in the car listening to Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody. Singing at the top of our voices and banging all of our heads at just the right moment. It was awesome.

I spaced Sundays post and thought I would do my nails today. After ten, yes ten attempts, I decided to try this polish.


This is Crows Toes Shiny Happy People. It's a beautiful bright spring green with gold glitter. This is three coats. I should have done this for St. Patrick's Day.






I started with a base coat. Any one you like is fine. Then three coats of the Crows Toes. Topped it off with Sally Hansen Insta-Dry. Done, finished, finite, fin.










Quick and painless. As always I purchased everything except the Crows Toes at WalMart.  The Crows Toes I purchased from Llarowe. Sad day, this sight doesn't carry the brand any longer.  Here's the link to their website. http://crowstoesnailcolor.bigcartel.com/









Have an awesome day.

Wishing you the very best Holiday season

Yes, I know it's been two months since my last post. My health issues have carried over for two months and I have been exhausted. I was finally feeling better and I lost someone very dear to me. When I was born. I was blessed with amazing parents, my Nana and my Aunt Wanda.  Wanda has always treated me like her own. I spent every minute of my childhood that I could at Wanda and Nana's house. It was home to me. My grandmother taught me how to iron, cook and sew among other things. I lost her when I was 11. Both parents passed away in 2003. Wanda was always there for me. She was like a second mom to me. She helped me with anything she could.  She babysat my six kids when I was a single parent going to school. She treated my kids like they were her own. She was an amazing woman. She worked at Grand Coulee Dam when it was being built, she traveled and she truly loved life. She was a Christian and she devoted her life to Jesus Christ. Back in July when I had surgery on my foo...

A woman is helpless only when her nail polish is drying......

My daughter gave me a sign that says just that as a gift. She is so right. I can cook anything I choose, change the oil in a car, change a tire and a hundred other things I learned along the way. Mess with me when my polish is drying, you are going to be in trouble. \ Seriously. Painting nail is an art, even if you are putting on one color. It's tricky,it takes practice and its frustrating as Hell if you have to start over. Be patient. Let a woman get her nails dry and everything is awesome.  Fortunately my kids aren't little anymore and then fend for themselves most of the time. Other times it's like this "Mom, Mooooom, I've cut my carotid artery! I'm bleeding!!"  Yes dear, I'll be right there. Let my nail polish dry. Seriously, it's never that severe. Funny though. On with the polish at hand.... I really like the Pro-Fx Nail Concealer. It makes a nice smooth base to work with. I use one coat. It dries fast which is a bonus. Who really...

Greetings fellow nail polish fans...

My daughter has been out of school for nine days due to the weather. At this moment, it  is snowing like a son of a gun. She's so bored. I recently received the latest copy of Nail It! magazine. It's the November/December issue. There are so many amazing ideas for nails. As I was perusing through it's pages, I came upon this. This was submitted by Nora Ramsdell, Richmond, VA @naq57.  I really liked the look of the gold and green/teal color. Very chic but simple too.  Here we go.  I started with a base coat. Your choice. As long as it works, you will be fine.  I like Green but not all Greens. I tend to gravitate towards the blue-green, green-blue, teal-y colors. I chose Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Re-teal Therapy. I love this brand. It drys quickly and on me, it lasts until I take it off. That's usually about 10 days. I used two coats. For the Gold, I decided to try something new. I usually use stamping polish. I have seen videos on YouTube...
