Liebster Blog Award

I want to thank Paola of Princess Poly and Liz of Liquid Jelly for awarding me this! Super sweet.

The Liebster Blog Award is designed to bring well deserved additional recognition to those bloggers with less than 300 followers. If you receive the award, link back to the blogger that nominated you, and nominate three more blogs.

Okay, so here are three more smaller blogs that I think y'all should check out!

Deborah from Love. Varnish, Chocolate and more...

Marisa from Lively Lacquer

Lacquered Lover

And that's it! Thank you so much Paola and Liz for the award. 

Kreativ Blogger Award

I just got this from Shadow of Shadow's Nail Art! How sweet, thank you honey.
Rules: Write ten facts about yourself, and pass the award on to ten bloggers and tell them about it.
Oookay, I'll give this a whirl.
1. I have dyslexia. I see words jumbled up, and I also hear them all mixed up! It's something I never realized until later in life. I think it's probably more common than people realize - because, as in my case, it goes undetected a lot.
2. I've lived in 10 states! When I was a child, my mom moved me around a lot - I guess it's a combination of early influence and the Sagittarius need to see and do new things, it carried on into adulthood.
3. I do believe in astrology, I'm quite interested in it. I'm a Sagittarius and I have 5 of my planets in that sign! That's literally called a fireball. Haha.
4. I can only snap my fingers with my ring fingers. I've never been able to snap my fingers with my middle finger. I thought when I was a kid it was something I just couldn't get - but apparently it's inherited.
5. I have big hands for a woman. Nothing dainty here! Actually, I'm large framed anyway. I wear the same size ring as my husband!
6. And speaking of the devil, I've been with my amazing Tony for 13 years! He's my best friend.
7. My super curly hair still drives me crazy. They say you get used to your hair, but I never have. That's why I chop it off so frequently.
8. I have always been a night owl. I SUCK at mornings. I'm good if I stay up all night into the morning, but to work a day shift? Miserable. I can't even get properly woken up until around 9 or 10 in the morning.
9. Other than being addicted to polish, and reading - I also love to cook. I LOVE food. Little surprise I was in the food industry for so long - I just had always wanted to have my own place, to do my own thing. Owning my own restaurant would be awesome - but it's such an iffy venture.
10. Everyone I've ever known thought I should be a teacher or a writer.
Okay, phew. I managed to get through ten facts!
I can't imagine I could award anyone that hasn't done this - so I won't tag anyone. But if you want to do this, let me know, and I'll link you! I love to read these. Thanks for the award, Shadow!

Stylish Blogger Award

My first award here on Nightly Nails! Thanks to the amazingly sweet Cindy of Nail'd & Polish'd. I'm sure that all of my followers already know her site, but if you don't, you should!
Okay, here are the rules:
1. Thank and link back to the person who awarded you this award.
2. Share 7 things about yourself.
3. Award 15 recently discovered bloggers.
4. Contact these bloggers and tell them about the award.

My seven things:
1. I LOVE to read. Moreover, I love books. I'm obsessed with buying them. I'll probably never read all the books I've bought, I just never have time! I kind of look forward to being an old retired lady, just so I can catch up on my reading. My favorite book, ever, is Marion Zimmer Bradley's Mists of Avalon.
2. I'm not well organized. I'm super jealous of those who are (in a vague sense, not like...a burning jealousy) because I know at this stage of the game I never will be well organized. There are a few things I'm good at though, such as organizing my stash (NO, I don't have a spreadsheet!) and scheduling posts. And I think I'm good at those things because it's almost a necessity.
3. I was born in California. I haven't been back since I was seven. I dream about it often, though. The dreams are kind of spooky.
4. I'm psychic. It runs in my family in varying degrees. Mine is kind of a mild form. I have dreams, and I am amazingly adept at reading people. I don't ever see myself wearing a turban and hosting seances.
5. I don't like going to the theatre to watch movies. I prefer to watch them at home. I know this is weird, but it's SO much better for me. It's kind of a tradition in my family, anyway.
6. I often don't like the things everyone else does. For instance, Chanel Paradoxal. HATED that color. No interest in it, whatsoever. I even have the drugstore dupe, Revlon Perplex, and I have never worn it. Weird, right??
7. I find it...hard to talk about myself on these kinds of surveys. I keep thinking I should be able to do it, and inevitably I sit here for an hour, staring at the screen, trying to come up with something interesting. Look, obviously I'm cheating on number seven! Hah.

Okay, tagging 15 blogs. *gulp* Well, y'all are new to me! So I hope you don't mind if I tag you. Hopefully you won't have done this already!
Edit: Well, I don't think there's many that haven't done this! If you haven't and you want to, let me know and I'll add you to my tag list, I'd love to see it! I only came up with four. I know this tag/award has been out for a while!

1. Polish Obsessed
2. Forever 1992
3. Josie's Nails
4. Crystal Visions
