SENIOR LADY: SIMPLE CHRISTMAS NAIL ART!

-

 I love doing my own nail art. Years ago, I followed the 

trend of getting "My Nails Done."  Experiencing popped

 off artificial nails and the cost of weekly fill-ins were 

too much drama for me. I discovered that "doing my nails" 

was therapeutic. My weekly quiet time involved doing

nail art after my kids were in bed for the night.


I collected several colors of nail hardener polish and

kept them in a large basket. I eventually accumulated

thirty -five [35] bottles of polish. My collection 

included several colors of glitter nail polish.

I wasn't good at drawing nail designs.  "My

go to tricks" were polka dot designs, three

color nails and nail glitter embelishments.

I purchased several packets of nail stickers

online too. Some people seemed to like

my simple nail designs. I always received

compliments. I also discovered there was 

online videos available for ladies interested

 in nail art design.


I love getting my nails ready for Christmas. 

There are so many pretty and simple nails

designs I can do. I try to do a new design, 

each week, leading up to Christmas Day.


This is my Christmas nail design for this week:


Tools:

Color Craze, #400 red

 Nail Lacquer, #199 Hot Stuff glitter

White lace nail stickers




Week # 1: Nail Design:




RED NAILS WITH LACE FLOWERS 

WITH HOT STUFF NAIL GLITTER OVER LAY!


I'm planning next week's Christmas design already.

It should entail a more elaborate design.

HOW I AM AGING GRACEFULLY, WELLNESS

  I didn't want to acknowledge that I was  getting older.I got offended when store clerks said, Yes ma'am".  I realized that age 40 was old to most young people. I couldn't deny aging any longer when I  fell one morning sprinting out of bed.My friends and I had a good laugh because  all of them had fallen out of bed too.We shared our techniques for arising safely out of bed each morning.  We check to see which joints are working.I admitted that I  hold onto the wall until my joints loosen up. Most days my joints tell me  when a storm is coming.  I have had a few allergic reactions  pop up to foods  I have been eating since childhood.This is very annoying.I would be devastated if I ever developed any allergy to coffee or chocolate. I have to make my coffee  weaker now and I can live with that!! I can eat too much dark chocolate since it gives me indigestion.   Hey,  I know what to do. I'm resourceful, I only eat a little at a tim

SPANISH LLADRO ANGEL FIGURINES SENIOR MOMENT COLLECTIBLES (SMC) I began collecting angels after  I saw an article in the guide post  magazine. The lady had a picture of her angel collection on the first page. I thought this was a great  hobby. Now I have three curio cabinets full of angels. My husband realized I was  a serious about my angel collection. He began buying me beautiful angels for my Christmas present.  He even  bought me the curio cabinets to put them in.  I even had friends who collected  frogs, elephants, penguins, and sock monkeys. We helped each  other hunt for collectibles.Some of them bought me angels when  they traveled overseas. I have   beautiful angels from Africa and Hawaii because of my traveling friends. MY TIPS FOR COLLECTING: * Do research on the Internet for list of items people collect * Choose one item that interest you.  Some people do theme collecting like vintage toy

THE JEAN SCENE 4 WOMEN!

I love wearing jeans. They are  more enjoyable when they fit well. They flatter your figure. I am very envious when I see  a classy senior lady looking good in her denim outfit. I  have seen that crisp white  shirt, flattering jeans and a nice pair of boots. I was inspired to put more effort  into my attire after I saw a jeans show on Rachel Ray show.  Her guest explained that you have to find the correct jeans for your  body type.  I know they make  skinny jeans to fit every woman, but I must pass on this style. I have seen some denim styles that  I have tried to copy. They are classy and flattering. Here are some of the styles:
