End of Summer

I figured I needed a back to school makeover so I chopped all my hair off. I wanted to go dark but can't afford the up keep. I also can't afford to get it curly and maintained like I want so off it went and then I used a box to lighten it. The box barely touched it (picture is pre-lighten). But I feel less frumpy with the shorter hair. It was falling out and wouldn't stop after I had Noelle. And she was pulling it. So much for that little girl!


I made an end of summer cake tonight. It's a watermelon. The cake is flavored tropical punch. It said to use Kool-Aid for color. I could have just used a couple red dye drops. The tropical punch taste is different! Dave likes it but I think it's a bit weird. The "seeds" are chocolate chips.


Back to work in the morning. Ugh. 5:30 is gonna come mighty early and we have an angry baby in the house. I am so over teething. She is miserable and SCREAMS bloody freaking murder every 30 minutes. Noelle is so testy and the slightest thing sets her off. Or nothing sets her off. She just cries to hear herself cry. The hysterical crying leads to some gnarly boogers that I swear are attached to brain matter and REFUSE to detach!! And the girl is gonna keel over from hyperventilating! She is gonna be a good time when we hit the terrible twos!
