*Waves at the hotties*
I realized yesterday that today February 28 would have been my Moms 65 Birthday.
What better excuse to get my butt back to the blogging that I love?
So I did a special manicure for my mommy
From Nubar's Jellybeans collection I used Strawberry, With Cherry on my middle finger with White Polk a Dot from the Polk a Dot collection and some of my favorite nail decals from a billion different sets.
This is my Mom...isn't she pretty!
Strawberry is a sweet pink that you can wear as a jelly or build it to opaque. Cherry is a super squishy almost jelly cherry red, I love it insanely! And the Polk a dots.....Oh do not get me started I love them so much and since the glitter is not intended to cover but to dot they are not bad to remove.
My Mom was the very best! Funny (That is me in the pillow case or as I called it sack of potatoes)
The biggest heart ever, willing to help anyone anytime, friend or stranger she never questioned but was always the first to help and never expected anything it's just how she was.
Nubar has a great formula and is one of the few creme formulas that I really love.
This is how I will always remember my Mom...like a big kid! I was far too serious and she would not have it so she would force me to smile or laugh. (Seriously my sisters hair omg, even for the 80's that was just wow)
The Jellybeans are perfectly named because I want to nom my nails....I must get jellybeans!
Mom and Me...she attacked me and was holding me hostage for the eviiiiiil taking of pictures!
(My cousin was hiding behind me holding my arms and Grandma was fast with the camera)
Have you gotten the Jellybeans or the Polk a dots? Which are you loving?
My Mom, the silliest beauty queen ever, passed at the very young age of 48 (I was 21) of a sudden Heart attack. Her crappy doctors ignored the symptoms she called with the day before, ear/jaw pain, dizziness, nausea, muscle pain and weakness, headache, and vomiting, She had very high blood pressure uncontrolled even with 3 medications. Ladies know our symptoms, most women do not know that women's symptoms are usually not the typical symptoms that men have. and if you have high blood pressure and it is not being controlled find a new doctor or insist on seeing a specialist because you ARE worth it and if you don't take care of you who will? Smooches!
Happy 65th Birthday Mom!

happy birthday to your mom! and love the nail art
ReplyDeleteWhenever I read somebody lost their mom, I can't help it but feel incredibly miserable and sorry for them. Your mom was a super pretty person, I'm so sorry she had to go way too early!
ReplyDeleteYour Mom was lovely, of course she'd have to be considering how many kinds of awesome you are, now wouldn't she? I love that you did a mani for your Mom to get you back to your blog. <3
ReplyDeleteYay, so happy to see you post! You were way too young to lose your mom and she was so young! I'm glad you have some great memories of her. My mom is 80 and has Alzheimer's and every time I see her I don't know if she'll know me or not. At any age, it's hard to lose your mom. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to your awesome Mum!
ReplyDeleteAwww...what a sweet post. Awesome mani and a wonderful tribute to your mom. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteAw beautiful manicure for your Mum - I'm sure she would've loved it. I especially love that photo where she held you captive so she could take a photo with you! And also when you're in the pillowcase come to think of it, hehe. Thank you for sharing those photos and for telling us about your Mum. She seemed like a very special lady and that explains why you're so amazing too (: xoxxx
ReplyDelete*Waves back to the hottie* ;) Happy birthday to your Mommy. :) She is beautiful just like you! I love this mani so much. :) So pretty and so squishy and so nommy looking. I do not have any of these. In fact I have no Nubars.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful article!!
ReplyDeleteI love everything
Aww. I'm very touched by these photos and your words about your mom. Happy 65th borthday, mom!
ReplyDeleteGod u made me cry, your momma was a gorgeous woman, god rest her soul. I love the mani!
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet post for your mom! Thanks for sharing memories and pictures!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like it!
ReplyDeleteAwwww....I'm sorry. My Mom was the best!
ReplyDelete*Hugs* You remind me of her actually! :o)
ReplyDeleteThank You
ReplyDeleteYou need Nubars, they are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteMy Grandfather started the "Sack of potatoes game" He used to scoop me up and put me in his bag and tell my Mom that he had just dug up the best potatoes he'd ever seen (while swinging me around giggling in his bag) and then he'd dump me out on the floor and exclaim "Oh No there was a giant worm in my potatoes!" lol
ReplyDeleteThank You!
ReplyDeleteSo very true! I'm sorry you are having to deal with Alzheimer, I know it is so tough on family, just cherish her more lucid moments and show her lots of old pictures!
ReplyDeleteThank You sweets, she would have liked you!
ReplyDeleteI just keep in mind that I was very lucky for 21 years to have such a great Mom. :o)
ReplyDeleteThank You!
ReplyDeleteI have also lost my mom - 20 yrs ago this fall. Gone way too young to ovarian cancer. She still is my all time best friend.
ReplyDeleteIt's not fair on anyone to have a parent (specially mom I think) stolen so early :( I can't avoid being sad reading this because my mother's birthday is this friday and I can't really imagine how it feels to go through that day without her. I'm sure you loved your mom and she loved you equally or even more! I loved the manicure you have made in her honour ^__^ As my mom is still with me I will make a manicure on her nails and bake a cake. And surely, I will tell her I love her also having you and your mom on my mind :)
ReplyDeletewhat a lovely post. I'm sorry about your mum, she was obviously a beautiful person.
ReplyDeleteAmazing post!!! Welcome back chica!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful tribute to you lovely mother! *tender hugs*
ReplyDeleteI have neither of the Nubar collections BUT I am eating jelly beans *right now* LOL Gimbal's Harvest Mix--they make the best jelly beans AND they are safe for my food allergic son--double bonus!
Love your nails!!
I'm sorry to hear that you lost your mother at such a young age. My husband just lost his father at a young age due to heart issues as well. It is very hard to lose someone that young. Your mother was a gorgeous lady, I like the old school pictures of you as well!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a sweet post and your mom was a beautiful lady. Now I know where you get it! <3
