Beauty school drop out

No graduation day for you....
Beauty school drop out....
Missed your mid-terms and flunked shampoo


(I love the movie Grease)

But seriously, this was me last night.

I colored my hair again (I didn't like the color from the other night). Managed to get hair dye all over the place. Stepped in a drip (didn't know it), and tracked it all over the bathroom, on the white linoleum (oh well, we hated it anyway). BIG drip on my shoulder, and my...

A lesson in organization

Posted 09-30-2009 at 06:22 AM by MomNC (Day to Day Stuff!)

Caeden is not a born organized person. She does OK, but definitely room for improvement.

This week she had multiple books for school, all for different things (library, reading group, weekly reading, extra stuff....). Granted, I couldn't keep track of it either!!! But part of that is because Caeden didn't know what was what.

I spoke to her teacher this morning, and clarified a few things. Apparently this week is an anomally and it should be more clear from here...

If you need something, ask a busy person

Why do I do this to myself? My plate is full, and I am just heaping on more!

Need to make a list, a schedule, and then just do it all!!

Oh please let me get through today

Posted 09-17-2009 at 04:20 AM by MomNC (Day to Day Stuff!)

Yesterday just SUCKED. I can't find one redeeming part of yesterday. And today I am in a funk and having a hard time getting going.

I really need to go make lunch for the kids, and don't wanna. Wish they could buy lunch, but alas, the school makes you prepurchase tickets and we didn't buy for today.

My hip is killing me. Not sure what I did.

My weight is up a little.

My motivation to do more than watch tv is just not there, which is...

New idea for a teacher gift!

Posted 09-06-2009 at 05:20 PM by MomNC (Day to Day Stuff!)

Moss terrariums!

OMG, I found these on etsy, and I found instructions on making your own. So cute.

Neat project that the kids and I can make together. Something that the teacher can keep in the classroom for decoration. Not too expensive since most of what you need you can find cheap.

I am excited to try it.

Big girl room

Posted 09-06-2009 at 04:20 PM by MomNC (Day to Day Stuff!)

I was able to score quite a deal for Caeden's room today from Craigslist. A dresser, bookshelf, mirror, and bed for $50!!

As a result, there was a massive re-org of her room. Out came the bookshelf that didn't match anything. Out came her Disney Princess Vanity Table. We tossed a bunch of junkie things.

Placed special things on her dresser. The mirror has a cork board, so up when her birthday cards. Set up her cd player (with cds in a box next to it). And she...

Why is it you find the perfect stuff when you can't afford it?

Posted 09-05-2009 at 03:32 PM by MomNC (Day to Day Stuff!)

I admit it....I love Pottery Barn. I can't afford it, but I covet it. I am on their e-mail list, so I get all the new stuff....*sigh*

I found a GORGEOUS bed and bedding for a guest room (which I don't have....have a mattress for one, but we lost our guest bedroom when Caeden moved in there).

Yeah....the total for the bed and the bedding, not including shipping.....about $2700. Not including pillows and other bed accessories.

Not in the budget, and...

It was bound to happen at some point

Posted 09-05-2009 at 05:12 AM by MomNC (Day to Day Stuff!)

We knew that putting Caeden on the "big" bus would mean that she would encounter a few new things. And alas, it happened on the bus ride home.

Kevin said he watched her get off the bus and walk to our house and she had a mad look on her face and was mumbling to herself. (ok, shouldn't laugh, but I can totally picture it and it looks cute!)

Apparently another boy on the bus told her that her Mommy was stupid. She got very offended and defended...
