I like my sister in law Kristin's blog- she's funny and has a serious knack for writing... I'm just sayin'. I don't really wish I had flashed someone, but I do wish I had good stories to tell or at least could tell them like she does!

I wanted to let the world know that I passed my cosmetology state boards and also discovered a use for the scary mannequin heads that I had to haul around for 18 months: BEAUTY SHOP!

After the exam I was spent and didn't really clean up my mess...and somehow with my kids running around me like crazy, a dog biting me, and a mess in the kitchen sink it dawned on me that the ugly scary heads could have a second function! I feel like the coolest baby sitter EVER! I bet this euphoric feeling lasts until mid morning tomorrow!

Kudos to the 8 year old that figured out the proper way to wrap a perm rod this evening... I explained to her that I had seen grown women cry over the very same perm rods. I don't think she believed me, but it's true!

I've also realized I'll have to figure out how to put the 'man' in manicure given that Rowan likes to be like his sister. For now he's happy banging nail polish bottles together until they break but one day he might want the paint ON him.... hmmmmm.

Ummm I Wish I Had Flashed Someone...

Then I would have funny stories to tell like Kristin!

Anyhoooo... Good Night everyone. My daughter is debating with my husband as to whether or not she can sleep with one of my mannequin heads. Creepy things too. I guess that is the end result of playing, "Beauty Shop" on a Friday night! We are ending the night in sobs, and here I am somewhat sheepishly ignoring the whole debacle.
