New Do




So some of you know. Steve has had very long hair, for a very long time. Ten years plus, I am told. So I have been thinking, the guy needs a change. You can't rock the same style for ever. So last weekend he took the plunge. (I am horrible at this blogging thing...) We were sitting on the couch, I was looking at a magazine and saw some awesome hair styles, then the thought came to me. I asked and he agreed. I was a hair stylist at one time. But I have not done hair in a while, so needless to say I was a bit nervous. And it is my boyfriend, what if I mess him up...Oh goodness, anyways. I got in there and was about half way through and realized that my idea of what I wanted his hair to look like and what it was actually doing were two different things. I started to panic a bit, but I quickly found a solution. His hair turned out better than I had expected. I went with this 50's style greaser look. You know combed back and all debonair like. He looks so different, and so handsome!

Poor Ellie

So our weekend was kind of eventful. I think it kind of all started on Friday. Steve and I have a 2 year old Weimaraner named Ellie. I noticed that her back foot was swollen and red. Upon further inspection I realized, to my dismay, that she had a peice of cheat grass embedded in her foot. (really gross) This happened to us, oh about 2 months ago. 2 surgerys, 4 vet appointments and 500 bucks later we got her all fixed up. Man it was stressful. Not to mention expensive. Can you tell I am an obsessive dog mom? Anyways. I was panicing to say the least. We did't really have the money to fix her and every vet I called wanted payment in full. A-holes. Well, I was freaking, nervously I started cleaning. And to my Delight I found a check....What?? I was so confused. How did we miss a check in the mail? It was from Steve's auto accident a few months back. There wasn't major damage but the other lady was at fault, so he got a settlement. What a life saver. So we got the dog patched up and made some nice plans with our new found fortune...Ha well, not exactly a fortune but it feels like it to us.
