(I don’t drink coffee or tea, so imagine me with a hot chocolate!)
I got highlights last night. In my hair. Expensive, yes. Worth it, yes. The girl was great
I used to be quite blonde, with almost white hair as a kid, but now my hair is an incredibly dark-not-even-blonde colour in the back. I have only a very few of my natural highlights at my temples.
So. I got some chemically added. Which is a big thing for me because I don’t dye my hair. I’ve had highlights put in once before, and that was about eight months ago. It might have been in May, I’m not sure.
And I’m happy. Which is a good thing
Today R and I are making (have made but they’re in the oven) cupcakes. One of our neighbours daughters turns 11 years old today, so we’re going to hopefully bring some over after dinner tonight. Hopefully because I don’t know if they’re home or if they’re doing their own cake thing. Hmmm … maybe we should do it tomorrow. I’ll have to think about it. It’s white cake and I plan on mixing sprinkles in the icing, before doing the actual icing, and hope it looks neat. I have some nice red sugar-crystal ones.

Cupcakes!
Not much new here, otherwise. A’s in SK today and K is napping. R is doing a Caillou game on the laptop where you “sweep” sand of dinosaur bones with your mouse and put them in the right crate. He loves puzzles right now.


DH is playing poker at a friends house in Barrie tomorrow night, so I’m going to host D&D instead of going to a friends. I hope it works out since the guys will be arriving at 7:30 pm, which is after K’s in bed but just at A and R’s bedtime. The excitement might make them a little silly … my kids, that is. Well, perhaps ML and CC too. Another guy usually plays with us, JW, who usually hosts but he can’t this week.
Yes, I play Dungeons & Dragons (D&D), a roleplaying game (RPG). It’s fun, we eat some great munchies, and we also gab a fair bit. That’s right, me and the guys gab
It’s a lot of fun and is, somewhat sadly, my main adult interaction without kids.
Ah, but on Sunday I’m going with a neighbour to see Avatar. I’m waiting for him to get back to me about the time, if he’s okay with 11:30 am, so I can buy the tickets. Why not go with my DH? Well … he prefers chick flicks. Especially if they have Meg Ryan in ‘em
I like those too, but I also like action and science fiction movies. He’s not big into the sci-fi ones. I just hope I don’t get a headache wearing those 3D glasses for the 2+ hours.
That’s it for now. I look forward to swimming tomorrow with K, since he’s such a water-monkey now. He DIVES out of my arms to get to the slide, and actually JUMPS into the water (holding my hands). He’s only 18 months old, but he’s awesome physically.
Have a great weekend …
