It's been a scary long time..


Hey kids, want to hear a scary story?  Shines flashlight on face... It all started about three months ago. I may have mentioned that we embarked on a harrowing journey to find the house of our dreams. Well, we did indeed find a house. The location is almost perfect- close enough to work but far enough away from the neighbors, tall trees, almost enough space to satisfy my hoarding tendencies. But the dream quickly turned to a nightmare when I discovered that the internet doesn't exist here..... Let that sink in for a moment... No. Internet.

To be fair we could technically pay twice as much as we were before to get satellite internet with a data cap of 10g per month. Sounds great except the part where I used to use about that much data every day or so. I'm currently attempting my first ever phone only blogging experience. Pros: I'm blogging on the couch! Cons: every single other thing. 


So, I still do nails but it's been really hard to keep blogging. Thanks Google for cancelling the Blogger app for iOS and forcing me to struggle through this mess on my mobile browser. 

These are my rotting zombie Halloween nails. I started with one coat of China Glaze, Don't Get Derailed, then dry-brushed black polish in random places. Next I used a q-tip soaked in acetone to rub off layers of polish is a few places on each nail. I topped it off with Wet n Wild matte top coat. After that was dry I painted on some blood (Sally Hansen, Brick Wall) and left that part shiny. 

Any thoughts on this new format? Is the picture quality ok? I can't tell since I'm only seeing it on my tiny phone screen. It's a work in progress, but I'm happy to be back.
