Easter

So, I have never really liked "Peeps"

Marshmello sugar coated candies "YUCK"

As we all know Peep's are huge with Easter.

So since I hate them why am I bringing them up - ?

Well I got "PEEPED" on Easter.

What is getting "PEEPED" mean?

As I said I got "Peeped"

So Just imagine - it's 5:30 am. The dogs wake me to take them outside

and here are these Sugary Coated marshmellos everywhere - the door, the railing, the wall and yes even the Ground.

I'm half asleep and trying to pull them back into the house befor they get there Snouts all over these sugary confections.

So I finally get the dogs back into the house successfully without them getting any "yummies" sneak back out and pick all the ones on the ground up.

I get the dogs out let them do their thing and go back to bed.

We being the sinners that we are - skipped church and headed over to the In-Laws.

We ate some very yummy Chicken and salad and well, all the yummy making that Linda cooked.

Below are the Pictures that I was able to get my Sweet Niece Emma to take for me.

Chloe - the youngest of the Harts. Unfortunately I held Calvin almost the whole time and those pictures did NOT turn out so I'm not showing them.

Ruby Hart - She loves the Camera.

Gracy Hart - She kept standing in the Corner of the fence.

She was chatting with the little girl who lives behind Linda and Dennis's Home. Ruby Joined her.

Jack is just like Unkle Justin and Grampa Dennis

He prefers the Computer.

Emma Hart - She's looking so Grown UP!

Justin, Heather and Dennis - watching Heather play a game on the Laptop.

We had a lot of Fun and I did finally get a few Pictures. So Hope you enjoyed it.

The New DO (I mean Hair DO)

So Just So you know I started this Post in February

and am Now Just getting to it

Yes it is April

My Last Hair Color
Yes That's Right I went Blond
Not on PURPOSE - It was supposed to be Highlights
But Because I still had Some Highlights From Before
this was the Turnout!

So It had been months
(and I mean Months)
since I last had my Hair colored.
And As you can See Below
It has Grown out (really Really Bad)

I Can't Help It - The Funny Face I mean.

It's February 21st 2009

And

Because I'm Cheap (or frugal)I didn't want to spend $90 to get my hair recolored for it to end in Disaster.

So I went and bought a $7 box of color

from Albertsons I thought to get a base color
so next time I get highlights

I don't end up blond again

I noticed right away it was really dark.

So I knew it was Senior Year All over again.

When I was 16 or 17 I dyed my hair for the

first time to a pretty light brown/auburn color
I really Liked it. I kept it that color for a long time.

Till Senior Year. Mom wanted my natural

Color back for my Pictures.

So we went and bought a Dark Brown Hair Color

Cause that was what I was Naturally.
It came Out Black.
So we went and Bought a Lighter Brown - Still Black.
So then We tried Hydrogen peroxide to bleach my Hair
It DID NOT WORK - Next we had to buy a Color Stripper
Hair Turned ORANGE.
One Last Shot - A medium Brown
It was Better - Had some Reddish Highlights. So we Left it Alone.

By the Way this was all in one DAY!

My head was blistered and Sore.
So from this little story you can see

why I'm a little reluctant to do this my self -
From a Box and and Home.

But I figured no big deal

and Went with it

This is what I get!

BLACK - AGAIN - or at Least very CLOSE

After a Few days I bought a Medium Brown

to try and Lighten it
That didn't work this time Either!

(oops - history Repeats it's self again)

This Time though I will not keep going.

I'll let the color fade a little.
Maybe try again a few weeks down the road.
OR not - Who knows - I will be able to get Highlights

and not look super Goofy.

It's Now April 2009 and I still haven't tried again.
I'm getting used to the color and

Justin isn't telling me he doesn't like it anymore.
So . . . Who know's really - I need a good cheap Hair dresser
I might Have found one - but what can I say

I'm frugal and Hate spending the money
on my hair so We'll see when I'll get it done next.

Playing Catch Up! ( Month of December/Up to Date)

December 2 2008

Giving the Dogs a Bath!

Jaz and Stewie HATE, and I mean Hate Baths. I told the puppies "It's time for a bath!" and they both started to freak. Jaz as you can see was cowering as I was trying to get her, since she wouldn't come to me.

After (struggling hard) to get both dog's into the bathroom, Stewie wedged himself in between the toilet and the cupboard, while Jaz jumped up ontop of the toilet.

Finally I get them both into the bathtub with some warm water already in it. I don't have a retractable shower head so I have to use an old 1 gallon platic pitcher to scoop up water to wet the dogs. Neither of them like it.

After getting them both fully soaked, I soup'em up.

After getting them completely rinsed off I rinse off somemore. Now I'm only one person and I can only dry off one dog at a time so I generally have to make one stay in the bathtub while I dry off the other.

I usually dry Stewie off first. I start with the head, the neck, then the front arms. After that I help him out of the Bathtub and dry him as best as I can with a towel that I have warmed up in the dryer.

Then it's Jazz's turn. Repeat of the drying process.

My Puppies's are now mostly dry. But I'll rewrap them both in a Third warmed towel.

And WAHLA! They are now non stinky and clean. They even smell good. They are dry while I am now in need of a change of dry clothes!
