Green Thumb

This week's mani is called Green Thumb and is made by an indie polish shop called Whimsical Ideas by Pam

Gold and green micro glitter, green bar glitter, and lime green shreds swim in a sea of green shimmer filled jelly. Absolutely stunning in the bottle, take a look!




Even more stunning on the nail!


I first tried Green Thumb on its own, but at three coats I thought it was a little thick so I removed and tried it with underwear. Photo shows one coat Nina Salsa for underwear, two coats Green Thumb, Gelous and SV.

Dollish and Lasers and coincidences!

Dollish
Matte topcoat is so much fun to use to change up a mani for the last couple of days of wear. I really love how it feels to the touch and how it looks on top of glitter polishes. Isn't it nifty?


Lasers!
I recently bought a Groupon for six sessions of laser hair removal in a small area. I made my appointment for May 12, (My Dad's Birthday) and am choosing the underarms as the area. I have been wanting/wishing I could do this for several years now and Groupon made it so affordable I couldn't pass it up! If you don't have a Groupon membership, I would love it if you use my link for the referral; if you don't want to, that's cool too. :)

Coincidence
I lost my dad two and half years ago to a car accident and this past week, I keep being reminded of him and his birthday. One morning I was driving to work and felt bad because I had been cross with Jas and my dad just popped into my mind. The same day at work, a coworker of mine was describing a wrecked vehicle she saw (and making a joke of it) which was similar to my dad's wreck. The next day, I called to make my laser appointment, and his birthday was the first available day. Later that afternoon, IT sent an email asking me to schedule my Win7 upgrade and the latest date I could choose was the day before my dad's birthday. If there is an afterlife, and if they can send signals to us - he is definitely doing it. I feel somewhat comforted and a little sad at the same time. I miss him.
Have you ever had something like this happen?
