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. Traversing back and forth is a bit difficult with my RA so her Daddy has always taken her when I wasn't able to go.

This year, my very best friend came into to town. Sheila, and another dear friend Denett went. It was so much fun and so awesome to get together with them. These ladies are like family and really special to me. I am blessed to have them.

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 to spend more time together.

This post was leading up to my bestie Sheila. I was doing my nails and she said "I don't get to do mine." Well I handed her a bottle of polish and she painted hers while I was doing mine. I remember many nights at my parent's home staying up late playing Monopoly and doing our nails.



So here we go.  This is really simple to do. I just polished. No art this time. I started with my base coat, Pro-Fx Nail Concealer. Then I did three light coats of China Glaze I Pink I Can on all but my ring finger.  On my ring finger I used Cover Girl Outlast Stay Brilliant Perfect Penny. Top Coat and "Voila."


Here's a picture of my supplies. I put OPI Matte Top Coat on my ringer fingers. I didn't put it in the picture. All of the Matte Top Coats I have used work just the same.


I buy all of my own supplies at either Walgreens, Wal-Mart or Rite-Aid.

Thank you so much for stopping by.

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...

Helloo Baaaaby.....

Those are the words of the immortal Big Bopper aka J. P. Richardson who died in a plane crash along with Buddy Holly and Richie Valens, February 3rd, 1959. Truly a great tragedy for the world. Haven't a clue what I'm talking about, look it up. My last post I was struggling to get my nails back in shape. Sadly, they would grow a bit longer than my fingertip and then peel. I couldn't have a Nail Art Blog without nails!! Well now I do. Let's check it out.  Here we are... I decided on this color because it's Spring in my neck of the woods. These are really simple, I think anyone could do them. These are PolyGel. Not a gel, not an acrylic. You do have to cure then in an LED/UV light but you could do them with regular polish and some nail art supplies. The pinky and thumb nail have gold nail foil on them. The ring finger has some glitter and a gold tone shield. The middle finger has some pearls and rhinestones attached. The index finger is my favorite. I starte...

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...
