This Week's WIP


On Monday morning, I got my hair cut. Yup. That's a lot of hair. The initial cut was 10" long. I had to purchase a flat iron and a paddle brush. Never used either one of them before now. This week's WIP has been trying to style this coif ... and it may be for awhile.

Enjoy your weekend. I see sewing in the forecast.

Ohmygosh! That is a lot of hair... I would be having heart palpatations if I saw that much of my hair on the floor.... 10" aaahhh. I am terrible for getting my haircut. I usually white knuckle it all the way.

How cool is that see Carter on another site!! Yay

I second Karyn - show us a picture! I've had my hair so short for so long that now I've been letting it grow for 6 months and the longest layer is finally reaching my shoulders. I consider this "long hair." :)

i had no idea your hair was that long! i've heard people say that if you're always pulling it back anyway, it's time to cut it!

good luck figuring it out - i hope you show us!

That IS a lot of hair. So it must be really short now? My hair is getting so long - it's itching to be cut. But hubby likes it long....so maybe just a trim.

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
