Crazy Hair, Or Just Crazy?



My hair already has a natural wave to it. Add in this damp, dreary weather and you've got something borderline scary! We've had about 2-2.5 sunny days in what feels like forever. Yesterday, Nana and I took the boys to the playground to run off some energy and have fun before the rain came again last night. We were there for two hours! Gump came by after work. The boys had a blast! Big Boy's favorite thing was to climb up in the tunnel to go down the slide. Little Boy's favorite was the gravel pit and trucks (....as if he didn't have that at home....?) Anyway, it was great and we all had fun!
     Yesterday I also made pumpkin doughnuts. I ran out of Bakewell cream, but the recipe already had baking powder and baking soda in it. So I increased the amount of each a little and went with it. (You mean to tell me that people actually check for ingredients before mixing up their goodies? Pfft. No sense of adventure!) They are good, especially with coffee, but just not quite the same without the good ol' Bakewell cream.  Besides keeping the little people alive, today's goals are to finish all the laundry and maybe scrub the kitchen floor (the good ol' fashioned way-bucket+rag+old cloth diapers). Along with all the usual cooking and dishes and diapers and squabble solving and reading of the same stories over and over and all things related. We'll see how far we get!
      I would imagine Darlin is getting tired by now, being up from 3am to 8/9pm and driving all that way to work and back. I'm glad he rides with a work buddy of his to take turns driving and keep him awake-I worry about him falling asleep while driving. I don't also have to drive, and I'm sure tired by the end of the day!  Why is it that from 4-7 in the morning the time flies right by, but then from 7-nap time it drags on? LOL. Well friends, keep on the sunny side of life and stay dry today!

    1. Lol, thank you! I think I've damaged my hair from wearing it up the same way every day for YEARS! I'm trying to leave it down for a few weeks to give it an over due break, but it is hard! I hate having it in my face. I wish we were next door neighbors too! That would be awesome! Love ya too!

  2. Hey sis! I did the same thing to my hair. I ALWAYS wore my hair in a pony tail and it ruined my hair. I have been trying to get into the habit of wearing it down more, but this weather makes my hair go NUTS! I was always jealous of your hair. (except that time you came in from milking the goats one winter and it was frozen into a crunchy mess lol.) I love you and your hair. God bless!
