Digit-al Dozen: Story Genres - True Grit

Greetings and Nailutations,

Today is the last day of the Digit-al Dozen Week Story Genres.  The entire week I have use actual books for my inspiration which coincidentally were also movies!  Today is no different and I am using True Grit, a western for my inspiration.  There are actually 2 movies, one from 1969 and one from 2010.  I read the book first and then watched the 2010 movie and then the 1969.  I am a Jeff Bridges fan, so I really enjoyed the 2010 version and the book is great too!


Let's get to the details.

Digit-al Dozen: Story Genres - The Blindside

Greetings and Nailutations,

It is day 3 of the Digit-al Dozen and our focus is on story genres.  I decided to interpret this as books I've read and I'm continuing with the theme of non-fiction with being inspired by a heart warming book called The Blindside.  If this sounds familiar - it is also a movie (both the book and movie are wonderful).


Let's get to the details.

Digit-al Dozen: Story Generes - The Female Brain

Greetings and Nailutations,

It is day 2 in the Digit-al Dozen for the prompt of Story Genres.  I selected non-fiction again and was inspired by The Female Brain.  It answered so many questions I had about girls, teens and women and how chemicals in our brand work to make us feel and interpret things differently.


Now let's get to the details.

Greetings and Nailutations,

It is the end of May, which means time to celebrate with a mani inspired by a photo selected by the Digit-al Dozen member with a May birthday.  Cheyenne of CDB Nails selected this amazing digital image of neon flowers below.  At first I was really intimidated by this photo (Cheyenne sure knows how to challenge us!).  :)

Digit-al Dozen: Get To Know My Cats!

Greetings and Nailutations,

It is Day 4 of the Digit-al Dozen Get To Know Me prompt and today I was inspired by my furry children!  My husband and I have 2 orange ginger tabbies Henry (Hen) and Buzz (Buzzy).  They both have completely different personalities and meows.

Henry - easy going, calm, patient and his meow is very high pitched
Buzzy - anxious, pestering little brother (picture...I'm not touching you...I'm not touching you), goofy and his meow is more of a chirp.

Both were rescues, where Henry was retrieved from a hoarder and Buzz was a previous feral cat that was young enough to be introduced to humans as potential pet material.


I'll have photos of the boys at the bottom, but first the mani!

Digit-al Dozen Get to Know My Songs

Greetings and Nailutations,

It's day 1 for Digit-al Dozen week of "Get To Know Me."  Me?  Little ole me.  There is something that completes me - music, songs, a good beat.  I am almost always listening to music.  At work, I wear oversized headphones (teal) and since I have a sit-stand desk 50% of the time I am dancing and singing.  In meetings if someone says something that triggers a song lyric, I will bust out with the line.
Co-worker: that's bananas
Me: That shi- is bananas!  Bee-ay-en-ay-en-ay-es!

Co-worker: we are a good team, like family
Me: We are family....I got all my co-workers and me!

At home, I religiously play the game Song Pop - it's like name that tune with different genres.  You guess the name of the song or the artist.  This is what I play while I do my manis and while I edit photos.

Songs are memories.  I relive moments with songs - my wedding, my graduation, a good vacation, a concert and a movie.


Let's get to the mani!

26 Great Nail Art Ideas Challenge: Blue Floral

Greetings and Nailutations,

I'm back from a week vacation!  Where was I, you ask?  I was in Las Vegas - Sin City.  Unfortunately I did not win big, nor did the hubby, or my folks (who we met there).  But we did do some light gambling (I don't like donating money to a casino), eating yummy food, people watching, shopping and decided to visit the Pinball Hall of Fame.  Glad to be back home and now I'm playing catch up with some nail art challenges.  Speaking of nail art - have you had a mani you just struggled with?  The mani for this blog was my nemesis.  I could not figure out a "blue floral" mani for the life of me.

Digit-al Dozen: 90's Alternative Plaid

Greetings and Nailutations!

It is the final day for the Decades prompt with the Digit-al Dozen.  I am ending the week with 90's.  What do you think of with 90's?  Did you say alternative music?  Grunge?  Then ding-ding-ding, that is what I was thinking too!  I lived in Washington state (near Seattle) during the 90's and experienced full on local artists of Nirvana and Pearl Jam.  I wore in high school plaid and I was lucky enough to have 2 sisters where we could all share each other's clothes, so really I had 3 wardrobes worth of plaid.


Now let's to the mani!
