I lost 12 inches! of hair..

About a week ago I got my hair cut. Normally, not a big deal. Except this time I got 12 inches chopped off! Kind of a big deal. (yes, I donated it!) For the past, uh forever, I've had really bad headaches. My mom insisted if I cut my hair it would help. I always thought since my hair is so thin and fine that it wouldn't. Well it's been over a week and I haven't had one headache. I hate admitting my mother was right! I figured I'd show a little before and after. The best before picture I could find was from my wedding. And the new ones I snapped with my phone so they aren't the best quality, but it shows what it needs to show. BEFORE: AFTER: With a little curl! Without a little curl! I have no idea what kind of disease is...

Sunday Confessions

Once again, (like so many times before) I apologize for my lack of posting. I apparently suck at life. But before anyone tries to make me think otherwise, let me explain myself. (NOTE: I started writing this out on paper and it got kinda long and my hand started to cramp.. So if you don't want to read a long rambling post, I completely understand!) I've debated for several months now about doing a post disclosing my "secret". One minute, I'm determined to write it all out and the next I change my mind. But more recently, it's really been on my mind to share this with all of you. (ok, all 11 of you) I have decided that I'm not gonna hide behind closed doors (or closed computers!) anymore and actually do something about it. So, here goes... For...

Duncan Phyfe Buffet

This project has caused many a fit over the last few weeks! I sanded, I primed, I painted. Then I ran out of paint. I had to wait over a week before we could afford to buy some more. Then we nicked it all up moving into the house because this thing is a beast. Fixed all that. Found drawer liner that I loved, didn't have enough. Couldn't find another roll in any store to save my life. Decided to go with a different liner. Finally finished and spraying on a clear, protective coat. I grab the "matte" finish, which was fine for the body of this guy. Not fine for the restained, shiny top piece. Luckily, I still had a small can of poly. So after a few more coats, I think I am finally done. Or as done as I'm going to get it. I have a bazillion...

A - Z ME!

I do have a few upcoming blog posts planned and the launch of a new blog! But in the meantime, I thought this little survey was cute. So I'm sharing! A. Age: 28 B. Bed size: Queen. But it still isn't big enough for us and 3 dogs. C. Chore that you hate: All of them! No, but really dishes! I hate hate hate doing dishes. D. Dogs: 3! A chihuahua named Zoey, a lab mix named Hershey and a Min Pin named Roxy. E. Essential start to your day: As of right now, I don't really have a "routine". My days are kinda haphazard. I just do whatever, whenever. I'm working on that tho! But I can't start my day until I pee. I even make the dogs dance around waiting on me so I can let them go pee.  F. Favorite color: I...
