Walmart haircuts

Categories: Family — Kim on Aug 30, 2009 @ 8:15 pm Comments (2)

I needed to get Little Miss Throwsafit’s and Littlest One’s hair cut. I also needed to get bubble wrap for packing some glasses and other things. Why not kill two birds with one stone and get them both done at Walmart? I’ve never been in Walmart’s salon but it seemed like I’ve passed by it [...]

How do you wrap your head around this

I keep forgetting my camera at our house Up North so I don’t have any pictures to show you of our new place. Each time I pack more items to bring down to the new house, my mind is focused on the essentials so I forget the fun stuff, like cameras and camcorders. It’s a [...]

Where in the world have I been?

There has been a lot of activity going on around our house lately. Actually, most of the activity has been going on elsewhere.  My husband and I decided to live downstate during the school year and Up North in the summer while our livery is open.  I don’t have to tell you that the economy [...]

If it’s Saturday, then it’s raining

This season has been very discouraging for us. Unfortunately, our sales are down this year compared to last year for the simple reason that the weather has been awful. Weekdays have been decent, not very hot, but decent, but as soon as Friday night rolls around, a front moves in and dumps rain on us [...]

No shades of gray in one Burger King

Categories: Family, Parenting — Kim on Aug 07, 2009 @ 6:02 pm Comments (0)

A Burger King in St. Louis ejected a family from the restaurant because their 6 month old baby was shoeless. How many of us moms allow our babies to go without socks or shoes in the summer?  Probably most of us. Employees at a St. Louis Burger King were a bit too over-zealous on this issue, [...]

This would be a lot of fun, I think

I haven’t seen a full season American Idol in a few years, but this sounds like it would be a lot of fun:
Billionaire show producer Simon Fuller, who managed the Spice Girls, is in talks to hire Posh, 35, as a judge.
It comes after Paula, 47, yesterday revealed on her Twitter web page that [...]

 

Trip to the dentist

Little Man has another trip to the dentist tomorrow morning, just three days after a cleaning on Monday. I’ll give you three guesses why we’re going back, but it’s not hard to figure out. LM has cavities. Four of them to be exact. Yikes! They’re not bad, just tiny ones but that still doesn’t alleviate [...]
