What a rough old week!!!!

'My last post told of Breanna and I having a girls night, since her father went away trucking. Well, it has turned into a girls week. We have done some yard work, minor construction in the house (replacing some window trim, LOL), done some shopping for hair dye...and yes our hair is now Burgundy, Breanna's is lighter as she was blonde and mine is very dark since my hair was reddish-brown. Marshall will not know what hit him when he comes into the yard and sees all the changes esthetically to the house and of course his little girl and well me, too.

Here is a picture with Breanna and her new hair colour. She will only be a teenager once...and well, we did it together. She says I am a 'cool mom'....and I think that is a pretty sweet title. I have a 'cool kid'. It is a little dark but it will fade. Mine always does LOL.





Marshall today is in Florida, just outside of Orlando. He has picked up a load of something, not sure what...lol to bring back here. He should be back on Saturday, Sunday at the latest barring no mechanical complications. Marshall is co-driving with a fella from Alabama named Dewayne. I had an opportunity to speak with Dewayne when Marshall was outside adjusting the brakes and he picked up the phone. I told Dewayne, to introduce Marshall to southern foods. I want him to experience some southern goodies, like Biscuits and gravy, Country fried steak, etc. Dewayne said he will do...Last account Marshall had the biscuits and gravy for breakfast with an iced tea...HE HAS NEVER HAD ICED TEA BEFORE!!!

Tuesday, I had my surgery, nothing major and I feel great!!!! My dad's operation is occurring as I am typing this post. I wanted to be there, but my sister flew in from Michigan and my brother and mother is there as well. Not much I can do but wait and get the report. I have been put off work for three days and this is my third day. Not sure if I would've faired better with work as a distraction. Waiting is always so very hard.

I will update again as soon as I find out something.

Thanks for reading!!!

I love the hair color! I can relate to playing when the "tom cat" is away as I always do those things that I could never get away with if Mark were home at the time. Really, I get organized with him away...he's a pack rat(ugh) Tell Marshall to get over it! (smile) My motto has always been it's better to ask forgiveness than permission...(mischievous me as always)
I wait to hear from your dad's surgery and I am glad that yours went well. I still need to call you...yes, nights are much better for me... the later the better...ANYWAY, great post!
