The Medium Golden Brown was no match for Sweet Pepper

I am just going to roll with the strawberry shortcake look

Oops I did it again!

Since when does "Sweet Pepper" mean Little Mermaid Red?

I

am typing this with medium golden brown on to help tone it down..

I think I may just need to keep my hair colorist in the budget...

7 Very Quick Takes

* It's hot! I'm hot, I can't clean when I'm hot, and the house seems messier when I'm hot! We are trying to keep the a/c off until mid summer. Is summer next week? Yes I have fans, yes, I'm taking cold showers, yes I'm swimming in the pool and yes I'm half naked most of the time. So if you drop by..you get what you get...

* My room is a disaster. It has been on my to do list for 4 weeks and keeps getting pushed to Sunday. Because I like to start my school week with everything in order. Laundry done, floors clean, and no black mold growing in my shower...But it is hot! I am blogging while Mike runs to the store to get me a Dr. Pepper. That should help me get my room started.

* School is going well. We will be finished at the end of August. So there is no relief in site. We are getting ready to have a few weeks of traveling. We are going to GA for Sarah Beth's graduation, and then to the lake. Then the next weekend is Maddy's theatre performance of Alice in Wonderland.

* Our 4 baby chicks are doing well. I have mostly been ignoring them other than food and water. I really don't have time for babies right now. In 2-3 weeks they can start going outside for a little bit.

* I staked my garden today. I put in 10 stakes and need to stake 4 more rows. We are going to have a ton of tomatoes. I need to find a ketchup recipe so I can can some. The organic ketchup is so expensive for that little bottle. My spinach is not doing so great. I am thinking of growing it on the back porch and see if the shade helps at all.

* Well my Dr. P is here so I have no more excuses to procrastinate.

Allergy Update

As many of you all know we went on the first of April to Nemours Childrens Clinic in Jacksonville to see an immunologist. Ethan had been diagnosed with allergies to Wheat, Corn, Soy, Peanut, and Sesame. So basically for two months he ate vegetables and fruit..
The doctor and staff were wonderful. They answered all my questions and then proceeded to do a skin test to see how allergic he was. He was highly reactive to Peanut and soy. His peanut hive was huge. He also came back allergic to tree nuts which was a surprise to us. However, the good news is that he had no reaction to corn or wheat!! WHOO-HOO!! I really really wanted those two to be ruled out and they were!!

So we still have to guard his diet, but it is definitely less restricted than before.
