Ta Da!

*angela* is now....a brunette!

i have never had hair this dark in my life. i have always been a blonde. not... Jessica Simpson-do buffalo's really have wings... blonde. just kinda dirty blonde. i like this colour...*Bailey* does not. she doesn't like change. i do...at least right now i do. i'm not sure about *Mike*, he's not home yet. i can guess that he will either barely notice or become excited by the new woman in his home. (men!) either way it doesn't end well for me.

i also took a yoga class today. i forgot how much i enjoy it. i may not be able to move tomorrow but it was fun today.

i've done two things on my list...what should i do next? tattoo maybe? we'll see.

Lately

Lately I've been wanting to:

-die my hair brown

-get a tattoo

-buy shoes

-do yoga

-get back to work

-spend time with *Mike*

-photograph *myself* (no-one else does it)

-wear red

-use lots of colour in my scrapbook pages

...not necessarily in that order.

YAY!!!

We bought a new truck!

I love it!

Bailey loves it too!

It has a T.V. in it!

It keeps her quiet!

I bet my parents wish there were T.V.'s in cars when I was a kid. he he!

No gifts

So... today is my husbands 35th birthday. His birthday always just reminds me that I'm older than him... 2.5 years older. That's OK, I'm still skinnier (for now).

I don't have a gift for him. I will make him a card, which he won't appreciate, but I'm unemployed so he gets NO gift.

He didn't get ME anything for MY last birthday either... or Valentines Day or our anniversary.

When did we start doing this? This thing where our daughter is the only one who seems to get presents... like we're not important anymore. We swore we'd never do it... but here we are... gift-less!

I'm gonna go make him a cake... I'll always be older so I'm gonna make sure that he stays fatter!

Not Today

Late night.....too tired......no blog.

Well, maybe later.

Wardrobe Challenged

What do I wear!!!! I have to go to a Jack and Jill tonight and I don't have any clothes.
I am not joking...I don't have ANYTHING to wear!
At what point in my life did I start looking at clothing as a luxury and not a necessity? When did I begin to hate shopping for anything but scrapbooking supplies? "Look these jeans are on sale for $24.99"!..are you kidding me, I could buy like 20 sheets of pattern paper for that.
So, normally it's not such a big deal but then someone tosses me a wedding or some event to go to (usually at the last minute) and I get all freaked out because I can't dress myself.
Mike wonders why I can't just throw something on...MEN!...they just don't get it. Don't they know, it's not about covering up your nakedness it's about making people you haven't seen in a while hate you cause you look so damn good!
I suppose I'll just wear the dress I wore at the last Jack and Jill I went to... seven years ago =)
That solves that.
Next problem...SHOES!...don't get me started.

Computer Literate

I can use a computer! I really can! Maybe I don't know everything, but I can "upload" a photo to Scrapbook.com and I can do some neat things with my pictures, I even put that fancy header up for my blog title all by myself. I am proud!

You have to understand...when I went to high school, there were about fifteen computers for the whole school and that included the office. The computer class I took in grade ten taught the Binary Code. ( 10100010100010 ) To say I didn't learn much would be an understatement. In-fact, our teacher handed us some papers a couple of days before the exam at the end of the year and said "if you can answer these, you'll do fine". I got a 54%. I passed, but after that computers have always been a scary thing for me, until.......SCRAPBOOKING!!!

I now spend more time on this machine than doing laundry, cooking, watching T.V. or exercising. ( Well, let's be honest, I spend more time thinking about exercise than actually doing it. lol ) The point is ...it's not so scary anymore and I'm smarter than I thought.

Maybe I should apply at Google...I could use a job like that...and I did pass an exam on the Binary Code once!
