I like to talk…a lot. When I was a kid I talked too much, so my teachers moved me to the back of the class with my very own little desk, in hopes of keeping me quiet. But I just sat there in “elementary-school-solitary” and shouted out to my classmates. Needless to say, I wasn’t their favorite student. Oops. (Sorry, Ms. Fountain!)

A while back, it was pointed out to me (like I didn’t know already) that I talk with my hands. I talk so frequently with my hands that I might as well be Italian…yeesh. This informant asked me if I could talk without the use of my hands, so I sat on them. And you wouldn’t believe it, but I couldn’t talk. It’s as if my hands contain a mute button. If only my grade-school teachers knew that all it took for me to be quiet was to sit on my hands. Ha!

Slalom Skiing With A Double Stroller

Patience is not a virtue I thrive at. I have a hard time waiting for things, especially when I’m in a hurry. My patience was put to the test this weekend when we went to our county fair. There I was pushing my double stroller along wanting to run over all the slow-pokes and meanderers. Why do people insist on walking so slowly?! In other news, I really love my new InStep Double Jogging Stroller because it passes all of those slow walkers up with the gracefulness of a slalom skier.

Bridesmaid Hair

Posted on

I have been so tired this week. Like so exhausted there have been times I questioned why I was driving (don’t worry, I was fine and still making smart decisions). Tomorrow is the last day of school, so things this week at work have been streeeesssssffffuuuulllll. Needless to say, I don’t feel like I have a lot of fashion “advice” to give you today.

But bear with me…my best friend is getting married next week and I will be doing my own hair. I haven’t decided what I’m going to do, but here’s what I was thinking:

1. Milkmaid braid-Cute, easy to do and different. Also very country-ish and the wedding will be in the country, so it’d be fitting. But is it too childish?

2. Top bun with a bow-I’ve never tried this before, so I don’t know if I could do it, but it’s so dang pretty!

3. Messy Fishtail braid-very easy to do, but is it fancy enough for a wedding? Or too casual?

4. Sideways braid to low ponytail-This is very easy and then I’d plan to put tight curls at the end of the side ponytail.

That’s what’s on my mind lately. What do you think of these four hairstyles? Any votes as to which one I should do? I’d love your opinions.

And I’ll do my best to post pictures of my hair at the wedding. 🙂

Happy Fashion Friday!

(Here’s to getting more sleep next week. Ha! Who am I kidding?)
