We spent quite a bit of time gathering garbage while still at the beach house. I did the cat boxes late last night (finally), so they'll be clean when we get back down there ( Read more... )

Can you believe how BAD I've been about blogging this month??? I just really need to get back in practice and stick with it! This takes me back to the old days when I'd only blog a couple of days out of the month. Hahaha ( Read more... )

Colored My Hair -- Fixed Marilyn's Fitbit

charliemc Jun 22, 2015 23:59

I (finally) colored my hair. The roots really needed it. You might remember (but I doubt it... hahaha...) that last month when I colored my hair I had issues. It didn't take the first time, so I had to turn around and do it a couple of days later. And it's wasn't that great then, either. Hahaha. Oh well. Good enough to get me through the festival!

Marilyn's Follow-Up Appointment

charliemc Jun 18, 2015 23:51

Another BUSY day! We were actually LATE heading to Marilyn's follow-up appointment. The amusing thing? They take her almost immediately to the back when she does arrive. BUT then she's texting me in the waiting room for ages while she waits to actually be seen. (He apologized for being late ( Read more... )

Marilyn: She's Amazing.

charliemc Jun 17, 2015 23:47

So, Marilyn made me STOP talking about her oral surgery at work today. It wasn't an easy thing, as people kept asking me about it. But she said the moratorium on this subject had ended. Yeah, she's pretty amazing, no doubt about it ( Read more... )

charliemc Jun 11, 2015 23:54

There's only ONE thing, really, to report today: Marilyn had serious oral surgery this morning. And, unfortunately, it didn't go as well as we could have hoped (or as I prayed for over and over and over again). Poor Marilyn ( Read more... )
