hurricane wind

The night blew in a hurricane and it continued all day. Sheldon was up and off at 7 to his week back at testing so no trip north again and then will have another week off after. Quite a block off from the cold northern tundra. I got up soon after to be sure Britt was off to school but actually it was more because it felt like 9 am ;), she dropped Coco off for her spa morning on her way. This gave me the morning to download and upload pictures and work on the blog. Laundry helped pass time too.

Britt was back home for her spare and lunch at 11. I rousted missy Shaina who had hair later today with Auntie Amanda. She cooked up her usual eggs as I ran to town to pick up a much lighter Coco and grab some more groceries, dog food and a Starbucks treat (still finishing gift cards from my old paying job! Thanks)

after ;)

It was a shitty day, not only hurricane winds but biting cold, there was a bit of sun but eventually the snow arrived too. Good grief, calgon take me away!

notes I had from my trip I thought I would share:

~skin feels amazing so soft and plump while there but takes only a few hours in our dry climate to suck out the moisture and cause the lovely tan to wizzen away, this holds true for hair too, I even had body and some curl.. or perhaps that was from a lack of hair utensils :-)

~don't bring a flat iron.. as hair never dries and without hair utensils all makes it a waste of space

~as I mentioned.. bring paper books that can be left, lost or soaked and not a big deal ;)

Shaina was back after her hair redo and after throwing a roast in for supper, we got cozy in our bed and watched Oculus. Sheldon arrived in time to join us for a most delicious meal, and here I said I was cooking light this week :-) S&S worked on her taxes for a bit before she headed home. Britt was home from work after school just after she left and enjoyed another home cooked meal. She managed to survive on pizza, ice cream and chips while we were gone.
