Crazy

Well it has been awhile since my last post. Things have been kind of CRAZY with work, the kids, the house, birthday parties, Halloween, and family get togethers ... plus I can't seem to think of anything interesting or worth while to write about.

When I say that things have been crazy- here is a good example - I started getting gray hair when I turned 21 (so not fair!) Anyway, I am what you call a very low maintenance woman. I do love going to have my hair done or to get manicures and pedicures but I just can't seem to find the time and it is way down on my priority list. Right before bed the other night I looked in the mirror and said to myself - "You need to color your hair, It is really bad !" My problem area is right above my forehead... I found a small tube of dark brown mustache coloring so I thought I would just dab a little on where I needed it and rinse it out and go to bed. When I woke up I just about #*@! Picture this... light brown hair with a Black triangle right in the middle of your head. ( Wish I had a picture ) OMG! I had 1 hour to fix this problem before I left for work plus I had to feed both girls, dress myself and Abigail for school, pack her lunch, and walk her to the bus stop. Luckily I had a box of hair coloring but I still was pressed for time. Don't know how but I managed to pull it off.

Halloween was fun! It was the first time that Jeff did not have to work so he was able to go trick-or-treating with us, which made my job a lot easier!

The day before Abigail had a dress-up day at school and she wanted to go as Cinderella. She was such a pretty princess! I was at work and right in the middle of a CT scan when I received "The Call" "The Call" that no mother ever wants to get - "You're daughter has had an accident on the playground and we need you to come to the school to see if she needs stitches" I am so thankful that I work right across the street from the school. She did not need any medical attention other than an ice pack but my little princess had a major fat lip!


Before and After


Now that Halloween is over and Thanksgiving is almost here It is time for me to start thinking about Christmas. I Love Christmas !!!! But there is so much work involved and I get so stressed over it. I am doing better this year because I got an early start on buying presents. I still don't really know what I am going to get the girls. I asked my "princess" and she said she wanted a big dinosaur that will roar in her ear and a computer with a high screen resolution (she is 6) my little one just wants Mickey Mouse .... wish me luck!
