Will He Or Won't He See His Shadow???

Happy Groundhog Day!!!!

So, will that rodent see his shadow or not and let us know if we have 6 more weeks of Winter left (which we always do anyways, lol).  Groundhog Day is a super silly holiday here in the states that is well, just silly.  It's said that if the groundhog named Phil sees his shadow we will have 6 more weeks of Winter and if he does not then we will have an early Spring!  I know I am hoping for an early spring.  There's a bunch of old dudes that dress in top hats and declare if he saw his shadow or not.  

The annual festivities are held in my home state of PA but I myself have never been to the celebration, maybe one of these years I will make it out to western Pennsylvania to see this rodent in action for myself.

Here's the rodent, Phil, with one of the old geezers that declares whether he sees his shadow or not.

 Last year I did nails for this day that had the Phil, the sun and clouds on them.  This year I wanted to change it so these nails below are what I came up with for this year.  I love them!!!  You can see last year's nails and more history on the day here: http://musingswithmelly.blogspot.com/2017/02/happy-groundhog-day.html

I realized after I did these that I drew the question mark backwards on my left hand, oh well, as my sister said last night, it is a backwards holiday since there's always 6 more weeks of Winter until the first day of Spring, so the backwards mark actually does work, lol :) Here you go, hope you enjoy them :)

My base is OPI "This Cost Me A Mint".  I then used nail art brushes and dotting tools with the following polishes to create the art: China Glaze "Mahogany Magic", Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear "Bare It All", Xtreme Wear "White On", Xtreme Wear "Black Out" and China Glaze "Awaken".  I put a coat of Kleancolor "Twilight" on my thumbs and pinkies to finish.

This Cose Me a Mint on it's own. 

There you have my 2018 Groundhog Day nails.  I am posting this very early so I don't actually know yet if Phil will see his shadow or not yet, that's still about an hour away! Have a great Friday and I'll talk to you soon!

I leave you with kitties, Betty, Buster (RIP my sweet old boy) and Dino. When I come across these pics I took before Buster died they do make me feel sad, I miss him so much, yet at the same time I also smile from the memories.  He was a good boy.

Polish & Purrs,
