hats hats and more hats

So, I made a pact with a good friend on his b-day to do a good thing for charity. Now, on March 8th... we're shaving our heads!

Right.... I know!!

But its for a great charity call "St.Baldricks".

You get people to sponser you... and then they use the money to help fund children's cancer research. If your hair is long enough, they even donate your ponytail to locks of love.

Had I known this, I wouldn't have got my hair cut this summer hahaha.

So, anyways, I'm getting my head shaved on March 8th, and I need everyone's help.

If you would like to help me reach my goal of $500.oo, go here http://www.stbaldricks.org/participants/shavee_info?ParticipantKey=2009-56487#

and help :)

If you go donate, make sure to let me know... there will be a drawing for some hand dyed "nobody Dyes" sock yarn! :D

Also.. since I'm knitterly.. I'm using this oportunity to knit and crochet up a bunch of chemo caps! :) Also to be donated by my bald self!

Maybe this will make me feel better about all of the charity stuff I didn't acomplish last year... hahaha.

Thanks in advance for your help :D

Moon Landing

So, we are debating the moon landing in our morning meeting, now the topic is changing to Kennedy :) I wonder how much of the day we can spend arguing about things that we may never know the truth about?.
Its amazing how much contradicting information is out there!
What is your favorite conspiracy theory?

I finally got my hair cut last night!! I had them go ahead and throw some color on it too. I was so tired that I feel asleep under the hair dryer! :) So I got a little nap and my hair is now healthily trimmed and dark brown!
There was a woman in the salon talking very loudly on the phone about a guy she works with. I guess he's on suspension from work for messing around with a "few" co-workers! She was telling the girl on the phone that she was going to call the guy's wife!! She repeated the guy's name, first and last, and his place of employment several times!! WOW!!!

My bike is running well. I was having problems with my rear brake, but I think my hubby and I finally got the air worked out of the line, we have pressure! (That's a good thing.) One of my co-workers helped me build a luggage rack that my hubby thought up (I'll post pics later), so now I'm all ready for my club's anniversary trip this weekend! We leave tomorrow morning! I need to pack lite for this weekend, (no chase truck to throw loads of bags in) I'm not sure if I'm going to take a project with me or not.
Who am I kidding, there is always room for a project, now that I'm not just making blankies anymore! I'll probably just take some cotton and a couple wash cloth patterns :)

So, tomorrow is Nevada Day! I'm not exactly sure what it is about, but the kids are off school! Which means that the Varsity football game is tonight! This is the last regular season game for my son's team this year. Regionals start November 9th! woo hooo!

Unfortunately, that means that I will not be going to the knit club that I wanted to check out tonight :( Oh well, it'll still be there next week!

Well, I'm missing out on an argument conversation about how much health insurance sucks and whether it should be blamed on doctors, drug companies, or the government. Gotta go! ;D

Sometimes being a step-mom sucks a$$

So, that's all I have to say about that! I'm sure alot of you know already:) If your hubby or wife is a step-dad or mom.. give them a big hug 'n a thank you.

Most people I come across are surprised by how much "stuff" I do. I describe myself as 'well rounded is not just a physical trait'. Alot of my c/k buddies are equally as round (interest wise, not ass wise) and that other site that I keep mentioning has shown me that it seems to be that the majority of us are actually VERY round! :D Do the rest of you find that non c/kers are often surprised by your diverse interests?
While I'm asking for ya'lls opinion, what do you think I should make out of my surprisingly soft Pakucho organic cotton; this cute bath mit, or this cuddlie bunny blankie, or this cool towel with a hood?

Anyways, I got a little knitting in on the doggie wash cloth last night after football practice. I should have been working on my cable scarf, but I wanted something I didn't have to think about. (see post title) I almost broke down and started a crochet project.. back to the roots hahaha!

Speaking of roots, my hair is curently, brown on top, and bleached underneath. My roots are showing, but since it is under my natural color on top, it is easy to ignore (thats why I did it that way ;) ). I think it has passed the ignorable stage though. Now my delema is, touch up the roots (more bleach) or just go back to a one color hair do! I need a hair cut either way. I think I'm going to go get it cut tomorrow and go from there. Any suggestions? Keep in mind that I am in chlorine for 3 hours atleast once a week.

Let see, I believe I said the bike is wonderful.. right? Well, the rear brake has decided to stop working again! I rode it to work this morning anyways though, cause by the time I realized it, it was ride in or be late. Cross your fingers for me around 3:15 pst! hahahaha

Well, tonight is the last football practice of the season :( We'll be turning in our practice gear and heading over to 7-eleven for slurpies after practice, so bring your $'s.
Also, if there are any players reading this, we are all set for Showgirlz tattoo day at Ink Inc. on Nov. 10th 2pm till everyone has been stuck. (they do peircings also) I'll be bringing flier things to the last game, I hope alot of you can come!! :D
