Legally Blonde

I love talking about hair. So since I'm cooped up trying to take my mind off reality. I thought I'd watch one of my favorite movies and document all the fun hair styles featured. If you're looking for a new "do" for 2009, consider yourself hooked up. Granted Elle had several hair stylists, fake hair to make it fuller, and all kinds of tricks of the trade, but now you have several fun looks in one place. Hopefully you can adapt some of these looks for your cut. {{ you can thank me later }} I'm also in need of some new hair products. What ones can you not live without?

Merry Christmas!

Huge thanks to Ashley for designing my card. I love it! Happy Holidays from my family to yours!

Another Pain in the...

"The day before Christmas my broke back requried of me, A second cortisone epidural." This time they angled it to get the nerve and help with the stabbing pain running down my left leg. Fingers crossed this will help my recovery and get me back on my feet. {{literally}} At the hospital they had some fun decorations. One of the departments had a wreath decorating contest. They were all pretty funny. My camera phone sucks, but here are the ones that I thought were the best. I love seeing people get into the Christmas spirit!

The Hills

It warms my heart when old BFF's put aside a petty argument that got way out of control and decide to be friends again. I lost a friend many years ago for a reason that to this day is still unknown to me. Gratefully, I've learned a lot from that relationship and tend to handle conflicts a bit differently. No haters but, I'm totally pulling for Heidi and Lauren. I'm a believer in second chances. In other friends news, I would love to hang out with Jessi, The Hills After Show host. How clever and fun is she! I've been watching tons of TV lately and right now she's hands down my favorite personality. She's fabulous! So, I'm dying to know. If you could hang out with any TV personality, who would it be?

In Case You Missed It On Tip Junkie

I'm reposting what I wrote on Tip Junkie - in case you missed my big announcement. **Attention! Broke Back Needs Sister To Move Into Her Town. Please Help!** I realize this is a shot in the dark, but I learned a while ago never to underestimate the power and influence of a blogger. {{wink}} As you know, I ruptured a disc in my back and have been in severe pain ever since. I've been dubbed "the broke back". I got a cortisone epidural injection and it seems to finally be working and I'm on my way to a painful recovery. Surgery averted, for now. I still have sever pain in my left leg and ankle. I see the surgeon again on Tuesday and I'll know more then. We're always up to something {{giddy}} My favorite {{only}} sister, Lisa , came up to help Jason and me last weekend and gave me some amazing news. Her husband is getting a new job and they'll be moving into my city! {{scream with delight}} College Station, Texas Now, they have to sell their house. Which o...

What Holiday Drink Are You?

You Are Hot Chocolate Your holiday personality is generous. The holidays are your favorite time to practice the art of giving. You enjoy picking out presents, sharing treats, and making everyone's day a little brighter. And you don't even notice if you don't get anything in return. What Holiday Drink Are You?

What Does Your Christmas Say About You?

Image
Your Christmas is Modern Your wish for the New Year is more happiness. For you, Christmas is a spiritual holiday. You can't separate it from your beliefs. You are patient when it comes to Christmas. You don't celebrate too early, and you don't like seeing holiday decorations in October. You like Christmas traditions, but you're not uptight about them. You do things your way. You like to celebrate Christmas your own way, and you don't like to have to compromise. You enjoy Christmas more than anyone you know. Some might call it an obsession! You give a big during the holidays but nowhere near as much as you'd like to. What Does Your Christmas Say About You?

Can you see the irony?

My favorite quote in my kitchen broke the 2nd day I ruptured a disc in my back. I was in agony for 14 days. Can you say "ironic"? {{Geeze}}
