That's a NO...

We all have things we don't love about ourselves, things we don't wear, things we only wear. Styles we gravitate toward, comfortable go-to outfits...

I never, ever, have-ever parted my hair down the middle. Up to this point, mostly cause I have scar right near by forehead hair line, the other part, I have a long face and neck and supposedly parting it down the middle only makes it longer...

Today though, well as of about 5 minutes ago...I'm ok with my hair parted down the middle, I might even really like it...today, anyway...so I guess that's a YES

Why are Poly parents superior?

Read this article via this blog and wondered to myself what are the strengths of poly parents. You hear a lot of great things about Polynesian families (and occasionally some not-so-good things, ha ha ha, you know what I mean). 

There are so many great things from all sorts of parenting. 

What "superior" or great parenting characteristics do you think Poly parents practice?

Towing A Vehicle

To hold to true to a promise to myself, here's a random thought posting...

When you tow a vehicle, as the vehicle being towed you must serve as the breaking component of the two car "train." Meaning you should keep the rope connecting the two cars taut at all times.

Reason for this post: I saw some ding dong men (who obviously have not towed anything in there life) playing this yo-yo game and eventually snapping the rope, which made me laugh, not funny, I know...

Mascara

***I just read Sandy Durtschi's post and thought of this draft I wrote last week***

I never loved makeup.

It's messy, my hand isn't very steady, my eyeshadow just won't go on like the tutorials.

I get bored cause it takes so long to put on. (long being more than a minute)

Foundation looks orange.

Foundation gets on my clothes.

Foundation looks white.

Plucking my eyebrows sucks, I always pinch myself and my arms get tired, I pretty much only pluck the hair that is undeniably screaming to be removed.

BUT...this morning I have discovered a love for mascara...must be cause my youth is trying to walk out the door, ha ha ha, or the combination of that and my love of those graves (shift, that is). Voila, I have a somewhat awake presentation...

Only thing that is disheartening now is, all of sudden if I don't wear the mascara, I must be tired or sad or blah, blah, blah...guys don't get asked that when they decide to go make-up free... 

Oh yeah they don't care about what they look like...no wait I mean they don't have the fun of the makeup woes.

Fast Forward and Netflix

Of course I don't have time for Netflix...

But when you have the expertise of the fast forward method, you can do it all...

Well coupled with a couple of graveyards...this is when I love the grave shift...

Vampire Diaries, Glee episodes (mostly all on fast foward, except for the singing parts)...

on deck...Breaking Bad, Friday Night Lights, How I Met Your Mother, United States of Tara...

Grant it these are suggestions from others, feel free to add to the que...

PS Its a netflix disease when your kids have watched nearly all of the shows appropriate for them, there you have it, confessions of a sleep deprived mother.

2012 yeayhhh man!

Christmas loved, didn't want the month to end!
New Years, so tired but so exciting to welcome the new year.

Here's some new blogs I'm looking through:
*wish I was more Mac literate so I could pics on here fast like, oh well do with what we got...

Gets me excited to decorate now, and not wait until I can do it all...Soni will be excited about some paint on our so "empty" abode.

http://www.organizedmom.net/
I love to organize but can't keep it together...I'm a nerd who likes to organize...in case you didn't know. (Not that I'm a nerd, but that I love to organize, yes love)

Workout music is like a good piece of bread with your favorite soup (duh, icing on the cake...I'm trying to change my sugar craziness). So you get an email with workout song suggestions. It gives the beats per minute so you can tailor you music to your workout routine (i.e. weights, cardio, plyos).

Here's to 2012 and all the heights to be reached!

0-3 Goodbyes

Alelia aka Bebs said goodbye to a another clothing size yesterday.
Ok realistically "I" should have said goodbye almost 2 weeks ago, but the dread of her growing too fast led me to hold onto the size for just a bit longer. Crazy, right? As if smashing her legs and feet into footsies of small clothes is going to make me feel that much better.
Anyway I am happy to announce she is moving on, I mean I'm moving on.
