::sigh:: Crap happens.
All this stuff going on with poor dead Anna Nicole Smith and where to bury her. I’m thinking, if these people really loved her at all, any of them…they’d know that she’d want to be laid to rest near her son. I can see that, and I certainly don’t know her. As for what I think of her family and the people she surrounded herself with, I think she’s in a far better place now. With the exception of maybe that Larry Birkhead. I don’t know. It’s just a freaking circus though, isn’t it?
Ashlyn is hurting very much after troopering through school yesterday. I’ve gotten her into the orthopaedic doctor this afternoon, let’s hope for the best and a speedy recovery. It sucks that I had to miss work my very first week there, but she’s my number one priority and I told them she is my priority when I first met with them. So there you have it. You can’t pick when accidents strike, can you? Please keep her in your thoughts and send her some healing vibes/prayers/juju or whatever it is that you do when you’re asking for unearthly help. 
I will say that OC is quite pleased that there are people in the house today, I think our absence has confused him, he’s been really clingy at night when I go to bed and he’s laying across my left arm as I type this.
So Ashlyn and I went to get hair cuts and our brows done yesterday after I picked her up from school (yes, I feel bad that I didn’t just make her go sit on the couch knowing what I know today). I wasn’t able to get appointments for us for an entire month out at the local foofoo salon (which I do like to go to, your hair is something that you really shouldn’t skimp on IMO). Well I really needed a cut, as my hair was over halfway down my back and it’s hard to maintain professionalism like that, and well Ashlyn…she’s 17 and likes to change her look. Well…they cut a foot off my hair it seems (more like 10 inches - in little chunks so it can’t even be donated to Locks of Love 
)…and it’s not quite the way I wanted it, and certainly shorter than I did. But it’ll be ok I guess. There’s still plenty to work with as it’s still below my shoulders. Ashlyn is totally having haircut remorse, they cut quite a bit off hers too, but she is remorseful because she told them to do it. I keep telling her she regrets it every time she does that. LOL Our eyebrows…mine are fine..but hers…well she’s not happy with them. I think they look ok, but she thinks they are too thin. But…Ashlyn learned a valuable life lesson today about patience and haircuts/eyebrow waxing. It may take a month to get into the foofoo salon, and you may pay out the wazoo, but some things are worth a wait and in some matters, you get what you pay for. We’re trying to take a picture for our Project 365, but we’re not happy with them so far. We’ll see. It doesn’t help that she’s couch ridden.
Maybe I should have been eeyoreprr instead of tiggerprr?

I just got my highlights done, but I refuse to take any of the length off; just a trim, if you please! My gal has been doing my hair for 15 years, so she knows how conservative I am. I keep forgetting to ask her if I should get my brows highlighted though…
So sorry to hear about Ashlyn’s continuing knee problems. I’ll certainly pray for her and send along good juju as well!

Wow, still hurting. Hopefully the doc will tell ashlyn what to do and tell her to rest some. I bet the rest will help. crutches might help too. It’s either that or physical therapy. oy. painful either way!
You let your hair grow that long? I miss my long hair sometimes. but then, I don’t. too much to manage. But I would normally tell the girls that I was going to donate hair, so they would cut mine the right length.

I think I missed a post somewhere. What happened to your daughter???
I hope that everything is going to be okay and that she gets whatever help/therapy/and extra stuff she needs to get better.
On other stuff: Haircuts can be a problem!!!

Poor thing, she’s still hurting.
A think a great haircut is worth any price. It makes such a big difference. Can’t wait to see how they came out!

Impulse cutting/waxing…visits to the doc…MRIs…and grilled cheese macaroni = NO Bueno. Well ok…the mac n cheese was ALRIGHT.
Mom’s chicken sandwich… = BUENO!!

I haven’t been keeping up with Anna Nicole Smith. I’ve just stayed as far away from it as I can. But, I do think she should be buried beside her son.
Girls and women seem so funny to me about haircuts. I guess I’m used to telling my stepmother to take the clippers and get as much off as possible.
I keep wanting to take a peek at your 24 posts, but I’ve only watched seasons 1 and 2. And I had to avoid that huge article in Enterntainment Weekly this past week also.
I think I missed a post, just as Brian did, about what happened to Ashlyn. I do hope she gets better.

I think the hole thing with Anna Nicole Smith is one big media circus event and the media is going to do the same thing to her daughter.
I believe she would want to be laid to rest next to her son.

I think that Howard Stern lawyer guy is a grade A SOB. The mother isn’t much better.
Well, eyoreprr is better that Poohprr (say it, you know you wanna), LOL! Man, you guys are having quite the run. There is not much worse for a woman (beside a torn ACL), than having a do that your disappointed with.
I gave up on mine about 2 years ago when i decided to stop dying it because most of my gray is at my temples and near my ears… so that you can see the roots very easily. I was having to dye every 2-3 weeks because those areas are the ones you see first. I do want to have some style though… I am still not sure if growing out my bangs was a good idea. It looks pretty decent when I fix it, but everyday hair is just blah.
