Giveaway

You guys are too nice. Really.

I never knew how many people have had their hair permanently changed due to pregnancy. I smiled with each of your comments. Especially those from my wavy-haired comrades. It seems that everyone, except Beki, had their hair turn wavy or curly after pregnancy. Beki was the odd-woman out. Her hair went straight. Lucky girl.

The next time I see a wavy-haired lady, I'm going to "know" she's a mother. I might just even wink and nod at her in approval, like we're in a secret club together. Um. Okay. Maybe not.


The real reason for this post is for a doll dress giveaway. Yep. It's time. I was waiting to give some to my sisters and friends, but for some reason, I keep forgetting to drag this big box of dresses with me everywhere I go. I decided to just offer two of the dresses that I have multiples of.

First up, one blue floral and one yellow floral vintage doll dress with matching bloomers. These dresses have not been laundered by me (I'm afraid what might happen to them if I tried). And there is no closure on the back of the dress. That part is up to you.

If you are interested in the set of dresses, leave a comment. I will be picking a winner tomorrow.

Don't count me in the drawing, since I already have two of these lovelies ,which Lily has been playing with BTW. I just wanted to say that my hair is still quite wavy, just not kinky curly anymore. These days it's easier to straighten it because if I don't, it's BIG - a combo of half curls, friz, and wacko waves. I wish my hair was straighter. I wonder if another baby would do it, no wait, I don't even want to go there!

Wow, I feel so much better about my hair now! Just the other day I was trying to figure out why my hair (which is quite short right now) has actual ringlets going on. My hair was always straight and/or a little wavy, but never curly. Kind of strange for me, but now I know why! I was going to grow it out again, but I'm too afraid to find out what it will look like, lol!
I love the yellow dress, and although I don't have any little girls to play with it, the little girl in me says, please enter me in the drawing, lol!

I don't need the doll dresses, so don't count this... m'kay.

I just had to weigh in on the hair (cute do, btw!). My hair didn't change texture with pregnancy. My hair has been wavy since puberty. But it did change color. It went from a medium redish brown/auburn, to DARK brown. So, dark, I didn't recognize myself.

Great Blog you have. I'm here from, Mommie Marzie. :D

Reusable Swiffer WetJet Cloths

Image
I promised myself that, when I bought a box of Swiffer WetJet refills at the wholesale club, it would be the last box I bought. Something had to be done. Now, to be honest, part of the reason was to help the environment, but the other part was because I was tired of running out of those darn things. I took some towels, folded them in half cut them into 5" widths. (The towel was just about 25" or so from side to side when flat.) Then I cut two 5" pieces of elastic and serged it all together. Two layers of toweling and two elastic strips. That's it. (The finished piece was approximately 4.75" x 12.") Within minutes I had a stack of eight. Slide them on and mop away. You will have a clean floor and have saved one more thing from ending up in the landfill. Now, if I can just do something about the cleaning liquid ... Something environmentally-friendly, economical, and won't cause further pain to my arthritic back.

39

It's that time of year again. The one that seems to come faster and closer every year. Yes, today I am 39. (That means I'm almost 40! Aaaahh!) To keep in tradition with years' past , I decided to do a list of things you might not know about me . (My best friend loves these posts, so this is in honor of her. You know who you are.) I ran 1 3/4 miles this morning. I gained 3-4 pounds after Sawyer weaned himself this year. Since starting to run, Joe has said that my thighs are "as tight as when we were first married." I didn't realize my thighs weren't tight. Hmmm. I guess six kids can do that to you. I need a new mattress. We bought our last mattress when I was in labor with Carter . That was ten years ago. We also bought a set of bunk beds that day. I want a new sofa. Actually two new sofas. I'm waiting until Sawyer is potty-trained. I'm planning on training him as soon as school lets out in June. Sometimes I plan ahead. Sometimes I procrasti
