Awwwww look at the doggy


Isn't Clancy cute?

Just Me and my Halo

Change of heart

After dinner tonight I asked Mike what he had planned. Since we neither had anything major on the agenda I brought up hair cuts again. It has been well over a year since I had a trim and as before stated, Mike was also in need. His reply was that we could go tonight ( go means that he is not doing his own hair nor Mine from what I understood) He did mention that he did not want to go back to a place that we tried months ago as he had to redo his cut at home as everything was all different lengths. Of course I agreed. Since he was driving I offered no suggestion on where to go. Even when he asked I told him that it was his choice. Well, he had gotten bad hair cuts at the place where we usually go as well as great ones so he decided that we might as well try the place with the clown. Well we did and he looks great ( but honestly, could you really make this face look bad ? Never !

I'm confused !

Yesterday as Mike and I drove to the local Giant Eagle to pick up my Vitamin D prescription, we passed a new hair cutting place. Wow I said to Mike as I seen the clown( really a clown with rainbow Afro, white face, floppy shoes, and red nose)outside holding a sign that said give us at try for $2.99, you need a hair cut, want to try this place out ? Without hesitation he replied that he would rather cut it himself.( he has fixed his own hair many times after a professional has messed it up so he is capable)So I am left to wonder...... Does he really want to do his own hair or is it just that he prefers not to have it done by a clown ? Men, try to understand them!

I'm Back !

I know that a week or two ago I stated that once we found Michael a car I would have much more time and would probably have loads of time to post at least once a day if not more. After all for a few weeks there it was ;get done whatever I needed ( including dinner so the kids could eat) because Mike would be home at four and we would run directly out to auto dealers and car lots . On good nights we would get home by nine and eat before crawling into bed. Only to get up the next day and do it all again. Well as I stated almost a week ago, we got a car . And I did do OK at posting for the weekend but then Tuesday happened and I had to call the insurance company to add the car and then came so much stuff that I had been neglecting. In addition, Michael who was dragging his feet about scheduling his driver's ed driving sessions is now in a massive rush to finish and get his licence, Go figure. Add to this that Mike has now switched his focus to asking about vacation and where we will stay before and after the cruise. (minor , undecided details )Then with public school being almost out, the kids have started telling me how they need summer clothes and asking what is cruise acceptable, which seems to be nothing that they own and well, I may have emerged from one tunnel but I find that it only leaves me in the middle of the ocean where I must go into another tunnel.
Anyway, I am not whining but actually thankful that we have the opportunity to stress over a coming vacation. Furthermore God has send Mike and I a blessing ( no I am not pregnant and neither is Clarissa or anyone I know of for that matter) over the Memorial day weekend that thrills me to the very core. For now we are remaining quiet but Really I am in a very Thankful place right now. So I guess to make a long post short ( too late) or to just end a bad post quickly( more like it) Let me say sorry I haven't posted much and I till try to do better real soon.

Justice

After agreeing on a price for Michael's car,our salesman escorted us into a finance office where we paid and signed papers.Upon completion we were handed an envelope with our copies of documents and wished a good day. It was at this point that I asked where the keys were. The quick witted finance guy replied with a grin "Oh you wanted keys ???? I'll get you a key salesman." Then with a smile he said" Pete( our salesman) should have them.On our way out Pete was indeed standing with keys in hand. Mike shook his hand and was given the customary two keys ,one of which he gave to me. Mike got into the new car as I got into the one we had come in.I started to pull out but seen Mike calling the salesman so I waited. Here the Salesman left his key (to the lock boxes that the dealership puts on the cars with the individual keys inside ) on the seat in Michael's car. Of course Mike returned it with a message for the finance guy not to worry about the Key salesman , we already had a key that would do. Of course Pete was relieved that he had his key back and we doubt that the finance manager actually got the message but how's that for justice ?
