Hair today gone tomorrow!

On Tuesday I decided that I really needed a haircut and so on my way home I stopped at Dollar Cuts, while I was there getting my hair cut for the first time in 8 months, my stylist Jennifer mentioned that my dying my own hair was really drying out the ends, so I asked her about how much it would cost to get it dyed there, she told me it would be $30 plus she had a $5 off coupon for me, this was awesome news since I can barely dye it myself for that much and last time I had it done in a salon it cost me $85. Well I made an appointment for today and took Darin with me, since it was so cheap for the dye job I decided I wanted highlights too, so I told Jennifer and she started the transformation, when she was done she blow dried it and straightened it and when it was all done all my sweet husband could say was it was beautiful, I don't think I have ever seen him this surprised or impressed with a hair color job(which he picked out by the way), and to think the whole thing only cost me $65. As many of you know when I first got married 3 1/2 years ago I quit dying my hair not only to prove a point (that I could be happy with myself no matter what), but also to try and get Darin to see that there is really a reason woman do these things for themselves and it is not just about being vain, so to hear him say that he loves my hair and to have him participate in the process means the world to me! I feel like I am on top of the world!

Valentine Treats!

So for the last two or so months I have been suffering if you will from broken down cell phone syndrome. Okay so do you think the cell phone companies can really produce a phone that will last the full two years of a contract without either falling apart on the outside or breaking down on the inside? I did however this last contract manage to make it 17 months without breaking or dropping my phone into the toilet, but eventually the screen decided to stop working, so I had to go back to using my old phone (yuck) which lasted about 2 months before it started showing signs of dying. Well a couple of days before Valentines Day we got a text about adding a line, we had been talking about adding a couple of lines so Luke and Logan could have a phone separate from Timmy and getting one for Cynthia and Joey since they don't have a house phone, then of course we could upgrade and get new phones. Well when we got to the store the first thing we were drawn to was the Iphone, Darin had got an Ipod for his Birthday and we loved it, anyways they had this deal going on where if you bought an Iphone for $100 you could get up to 4 Smart phones for free, so we did some checking and they did some bending and we were able to get Darin an Iphone and renew 3 of our existing accounts along with my new account and get 4 Smart phones 1 Impression and 3 Flights. All the phones have internet coverage and by cancealing our Cricket internet access we don't have an increase in our monthly budget. So now all the family should be able to get in contact with each other at a push of a button.......do we love our phones? We will let you know when we get our first monthly bill lol!
