it's Friday!

Y'all.  How long do your roots have to be before you have to do something about it?  I'm asking for a friend.

That's not true.  It's me.  I could see that you really believed that it wasn't me, and I couldn't let you be mislead that way.

So seriously, what's the rule?  I mean, they're not bad, really.  It's just that between taking out a mortgage on a new house, remodeling a kitchen, and replacing all the flooring, we're not exactly rolling in the hay right now.  Can you believe that stores actually expect you to pay for things?  Up Front?  I know, I was surprised too.  So, shelling out the Benjamins for a color visit is not on the list of things the hubs is currently willing to say "yes" to.  I really don't want to box dye it all one color because I have a pretty color picked out for the fall and don't want to damage my hair.  Truthfully, I'm hoping you all will say, "sure, you can go another eight weeks into September and then get it done".

In other news-

I am down six pounds since starting my new medication two weeks ago.  It took almost two months to lose that much the first time around.  My total inches lost are 20.75.  I'm pretty proud of that number.

You may or may not have noticed that I keep changing up the template on the blog.  It's because I'm trying to fix the widgets.  I know, weird word, and I don't even truly understand what I'm saying.  I just know that the blog posts are duplicating.  I fear that it may lead to actually paying someone to design the blog and/or moving over to Wordpress or the like.  Yes, you are correct.  Paying someone to design my blog is right above "getting my hair did" on the above mentioned list.

Have a safe and happy weekend,

Katye

What they don't tell you

Was it hard? Was it runny? Was it normal? Did it smell really bad? Was there a huge mess? What it discolored? No one tells you when you're in the beginning stages of falling in love.  Nobody wants to shatter the fairytale/"The Notebook" illusion you've created in your mind.  They just don't have the gumption to confess to you that one day when your beloved calls you at work, the above may be the extent of your entire conversation.  They don't tell you that you'll feel completely normal discussing "it".  They wouldn't dream to explain how interested you could be in "it".  Nope.  These people, these ones who've paved the way before you, who've told you your whole life that "it" is not an acceptable topic of civilized conversation, they never let you in on the secret.  One day, you'll have complete dialogs about poop.  Ah, how romantic. C has had some stomach issues off and on this week. I got called to c...

#screwthescale

Well, the time is nigh!  Pre-op appointment was yesterday afternoon, surgery is next Tuesday, the 17th!  I have spent the last month inundating myself with information, FB groups, blog posts, success stories, pins for recipes, protein powder subscriptions, etc.  I am ready.  The fears are lessened as I armor myself with support and information, and I know that with prayer and the right attitude and determination, I can become the person God has designed me to be. As part of all the various support groups I have become part of, I have learned some new terminology.  Daily, actually multiple times daily, various persons within these groups will share parts of their journeys.  Almost always, these posts include their "stats".  Their HW/SW/CW/GW, being their high weight, surgery weight, current weight, and goal weight.  In that vein, I wanted to share MY stats, as a way to reinforce my beliefs and goals throughout the upcoming marathon journey. HW:...

Just a few thoughts

Thanks to a friend who has a double black belt in interior design AND finding a good deal, bedding for Cohen's room as been found.  Also, a paint color.  I know, someone stop me before I overdo it.  It's going to be super gorgeous.  I'm stoked. Also, since I'm in the business of putting your minds at ease, I've made a hair appointment.  My roots will no longer be a problem effective Tuesday afternoon. Someone in my household is a big fan of "The Devil Wears Prada".  It's not me.  I like it fine, but not to the same extent.  However, I think of the movie almost daily.  Remember that scene where they go look at the up-and-coming designers new line and Meryl Streep's facial expressions are the indicator of approval and disapproval?  The kiss of death is pursed lips.  If you get that look, back to the drawing board.  When I scroll through some of the apparel and clothing designs on Zulily, I often think to myself, "Someone sho...
