Hair Woes

For some reason winter in DC just massacres my hair and skin. Naturally dry skin just requires lots of lotion. But my poor hair! I am growing it out again to donate it to Locks of Love (this will be my 4th time!) and I am trying to just keep the dead ends off when I go get a hair cut. Needless to say my hair isn't in the best style right now. I have been using a straightener to curl my hair maybe once or twice a week and then the rest of the time I just blow dry my hair with a round brush and call it a day. For some reason the dry weather has cause my hair to just fall apart this year! It has never been this bad! My hair just feels brittle and yuck! It lacks that pretty luster that is used to have-especially when it got long like this. So here is my question for all you in the blog world. Has anyone used this:

Or do any of you have any tips/trick/products that you use to combat brittle hair?

Cone Dog

My poor puppy dog Theo had to have some surgery awhile back. The poor guy gets tumors and he had a few growing on his head and eye lids that we had to have taken off. I haven't talked to my parents but hopefully him (and my mom!) are on the mend! My dad sent me a photo of the dog in his cone and looking like someone beat him up!

Poor Theo! I love you little guy!

He looks so sad it makes my heart ache!

Jazzercise- Take One

That is me in the back right and Erin to the left of me.

Or not.


In fact their were not any leotarts, scruniches, leg warmers or headbands. Rather dissapointing.


Regardless the lack of 80's attire the class was awesome.


A little background on this:

Erin found a Tippr for 2 months of unlimited Jazzercise classes at a location near both of our offices. After a little prodding she convinced me it would an awesome idea. She did a great job reaching out to the instructor and finding out about the class and then tonight we took our first plunge into Jazzercize. I can say- I laughed. I really didn't know what to expect. It was anything but a cheesy 80's music video. It was awesome. Great music, and I can tell you it is a workout! I am so excited for the next two months. We are going to try to go twice a week, and for sure once a week. I'll keep you all posted on our progress! 

Large and in Charge

I thought Theo was big! Get this:

He is a Red Tibet Mastiff. Name: Hong Dong or Big Splash. Not even a year old he is already 3 feet high, and 180 lbs! He is a moose. I kind of want him. Look at that face. He also sold for almost for a lot of money!
