Hair Picture

Here is the picture of my hair. The picture didn't turn out very good. I had Curtis take several with different flashes but none of them look very good. I ended up rinsing the kool-aid out at 4:30 yesterday. The red was in long enough but the green could have been left in a lot longer. The picture looks like there is a green glob in the center of my hair but I think it is just my shirt showing through.
Not much is going on today. I just watched last nights episode of Gray's Anatomy on line. I have to do a little laundry today and should clean up the house some. Tonight we are going out to dinner to celebrate Curtis's new shift and we need to get Zane a new pair of shoes.

Hair Time

I am bored. I should be looking for a new job but I don't feel like it. I decided to re-dye my hair today. I did the back just like last time. I thought I only had red Kool-aid but I found a kind called green apple so I used it too. I don't know how well it will turn out. I am planning on leaving it on my hair until this evening. Hopefully I can last that long before it annoys me and I have to wash it out. Right now I have the top part of my hair pulled up in a bun on top of my head. I have three baggies over my hair in the back, held on with bobby pins and old hair ties. It is not very comfortable, but I smell really fruity.
Curtis got a different job bid at work. He will be working different hours. Now he can't be forced to work overtime on the weekends and if I get forced in during the week he will be home to get Zane on the bus. I might even volunteer for some overtime to get a little extra money.
I will try to get Curtis to take a picture of my hair tonight so I can show you.

Shopping Therapy

It's been a while since I last updated. A lot has happened since the last post. Last Friday my husband and I found out that the place we both work will be closing next summer. Right now I don't know what we are going to do. He is looking for another job, but I don't think I will until after this summer. I am glad that we have a lot of time to find other jobs.
I really haven't done much this week. Zane was sick again Monday and stayed home from school. Tuesday he had a snow day so he had a really long weekend. Wednesday I went shopping and got a lot of stuff for my friend, Patty. Her house burned down and she lost everything. Yesterday I took it to her. Curtis took me out for supper last night. I wasn't feeling very good or I would have colored my hair with Kool-Aid when I got home. Today Zane was out of school for a teacher in service day. We went to the mall and shopped for a new pair of shoes for him and me, but we didn't find any we liked. We did find some great deals at Old Navy. Sometimes shopping and finding great buys makes your day a lot better so I decided to take pictures of what we bought and how much each cost.


This is for my niece, Kylee. $0.97 reg. $16.50
Another dress for Kylee. $0.97 reg. $19.50
A vest for Curtis or ME. $0.97 reg. $49.50
A sweater for me. $0.97 reg. 34.50
Swim shorts for Zane. $9.37 reg. $12.50
I spent under $15 on stuff that would have been over $132 if it wasn't on clearance. Of course I wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't marked down. Anyway, it feels good to save that much money.
Zane is a going to a birthday party tomorrow at a hotel with an indoor pool. They are going to go swimming and have pizza and cake. That is why I had to get the swim shorts.
I guess that is enough for today. I will try to update again soon.

Sick Things

Something has finally happened here but none of it is good. Monday our computer crashed so Curtis had to fix it. I was without a computer yesterday and it was a very long day. I was so excited when he got it fixed.
Zane has also been sick this week. He didn't feel good Sunday when I got home from work and Monday he was still feeling a little bad but didn't have a fever so Curtis went him to school. He was still feeling bad Monday night. Yesterday morning I got him up and ready for school but he still didn't feel or look good. I took his temperature and he had a little fever so I let him stay home. He had a low fever all day and still had one this morning so he is home from school again. I think he just has a bad cold. He is coughing a lot and has a stuffy nose. He better be feeling well enough to go to school tomorrow. I really need to go get some groceries. I think we will have frozen waffles for supper because I can't find anything else to make.

No School

Wednesday evening I was looking at the school calendar and discovered that there was no school today. Zane and I didn't really do anything exciting. I slept in till 8:30 then got up and tried to heat up the house a little. I washed a load of laundry and we made some cookies for tomorrow. This afternoon Zane watched a movie and I did some bill paying. It is too cold to go outside.

At the open house last night Zane's class played the violin to entertain us. They have been playing them in music class. He did a good job and was very excited to be playing for us.
I think I am going to make homemade pizza for supper. I am not looking forward to working this weekend. It is suppose to be very cold and I will probably freeze walking into work in the middle of the night.
