I Feel Pretty...

I'm not sure what it is about a good hair cut and color, but I sure do love it. It makes me feel pretty and that's a rough one to accomplish especially since...

a. I have a yucky cold
b. I have a zit on my chin (seriously I am gonna die an old lady who still gets zits)
c. I have a hole in my jeans right at the crotch (dang fat thighs)
d. Still have 20 lbs. of baby weight to lose and
e. I am really sleep deprived due to baby and cold

So thanks Julia for making me feel pretty for today because I never can get it look like you do...although I try and I try. So yeah for hair stylists who work their magic and make people like me feel pretty!

Savings


We've been planning this vacation to Disneyland for a while so I set up this "Disneyland Savings Jar" on the counter for the kids to start saving some money. (More a matter of principle) Any loose change, dollars, etc that were found, went in..although sometimes car washing quarters came out. The kids loved it and were faithful in contributing. So yesterday we went to the change exchanging machine at the bank and they all watching as it quickly counted a heavy bowl filled with change. End result $172.70. Not to shabby. So they will each have some spending money and we may buy an ice cream or two before it's gone! Good job kids...and Dad...who was the main contributor :) Now onto another savings jar...Hmmm, I'm thinking Hawaii!

Blog Overhaul

Anyone out there know how to change format slash layout of blogs? And can explain it to a computer idiot like me? I am ready for a blog change and I'm not talking just backgrounds? Advice?
