catching up

its pretty awesome to be a hair stylist during the holidays. you get extra tips, starbucks gift cards and great bottles of wine, IF you have the kind of amazing clientele that i have. my friend and client, andrea, bought me a nice bottle of wine and i drank the entire thing by myself last night. i had intended to share but it was too good and too long of a week. your uncle tim dropped me off and picked me up from pam's house and by the time i got home i decided it was not a good decision for me to blog. who knows what deep dark secrets i would have revealed!

the days are starting to run together and i feel like i have some how lost a week of my life this month. christmas is next weekend! already! i thought i had another week to spare! oops! let's see, i think i might have left off with thursday night's placement, which was my turn.

i told you that thing one and thing two were kinda at each other and being naughty little children. i thought it would be best if Roxy made sure they knew he was watching.


jack was really embarassed and didn't really want to talk much about Roxy on friday morning before school. hmm. imagine that. busted for biting, by our elf! 

i ran some errands that morning and came home to wrap presents for teachers. by happen stance, i went into the play room to try to take day light pictures of Roxy and i found this:


just a little proof that conflict avoidance is genetic. 

apparently jack wanted to just pretend like all of that didn't happen by wiping his slate clean and replacing it with his own handy work. he managed to squeak this out before anyone noticed and he was off to school. try as he might, this does not erase the biting incidents from the week. (but it is pretty funny!)

last night daddy was feeling lazy again and moved Roxy back to the kitchen. surprisingly enough, he did not put him in a chandelier but the window sill. you all thought he got stuck there, but no one knew if it was when he was trying to get out or come back in. *maniacal laugh* 




in other news, the ups man about beat our door down thursday afternoon attempting to deliver packages. i really hadn't ordered anything this time, so i was surprised when there were two big dell computer boxes i had to sign for. (im a mac, not a pc, after all!) the return address read "penny park" and i knew christmas had arrived! she always sends us the most fabulous gifts and although, i am supposed to wait until christmas, i couldn't help myself when i found a shiny, satin garment bag on top. i opened it and found the most beautiful mink jacket! mamacita, santa claus is in belaire, texas!


(i need bangs!)

there are about a million things wrong with this photo, but we can start with the fact that i am in the bathroom! penny wanted to know if it fit so i took a picture to show her. the other really wrong thing about this is that i am wearing it with yoga pants, white tee shirt and no make up. this is my stay at home mommy uniform. i think i might wear it around the house with my uniform just for fun. i always think of something penny park told me when i got married, she said, "use all of your pretty things every day and all of the time. you never know when your'e time is up!" i think that really is so true! if something gets broken, it gets broken but that is better than owning waterford and never using it! life is too short, wear the mink, i say! even with sweat pants! jack liked my "furry" coat so much, he asked me if he could wear it to school on friday! when i said "wear the mink" i meant ME!

i gotta get Roxy unstuck from the window and off to his new location. until sunday fun day. . .
