In the red

So yesterday we had some folks over for a game night.   Almost everyone who said they could showed up and it was so much fun!    Since Dean got home a little early, by about an hour,  I used the time to freshen up.   12.30.05amyred.jpgI’ve been threatening getting a haircut for weeks but I cant let myself, this is the longest my hair has been in 5 years.   In the back it falls below my shoulders even, so as I normally do I had to do something to change it or else I’d chop it all off again.  I love being able to pull it back and have long hair down when I want but it’s still hard to not get it cut when it’s driving me nuts.  So here’s the new do and a very large belly with me at 25 weeks.

14 weeks til my scheduled c-section but not sure the kiddo will mak25wbaby3.jpge it that long, hoping in fact he doesnt.
So our friends stayed a little past midnight.  Around midnight I said we should have planned the get together for tonight but oh well.  Since we have no plans and no sitter we’ll be sitting around all night if anyone else wants to come over for more gaming til morning!   Dean’s out this morning hopefully fixing the van so it will pass inspection because we have to get real tags on the car which means it passing inspection before Jan 7th when the temp tags expire.  We so dont have money for any of this, and it’s really getting to me.   Doesnt help that this is the month the quarterly water bill is due and that for some reason our BGE bill doubled this month, stinkin christmas lights I guess.    So hoping the new do will give me a fresh outlook on things and at least lift my spirits some.

My back still hurts, I even spent a good deal of last night watching everyone play games while I sat in the recliner w/ the heating pad, great host I know!   Well the kids need me, again.   Happy New Year everyone!   hoping we get a financial miracle in the new year so we can afford to keep both cars and still eat!  we gave in and cancelled tivo and directv so at midnight tonight it goes off til we can afford it again.  it’s a sad thing, but it will give us more time for gaming I suppose.    or spending quality time together!  or something like that..so good bye Tivo hello real world…..geez, I’d much rather escape inside an episode of alias (tivo’d of course) then deal with my real life right now…wouldnt we all?   at least most of what we watch comes on regular channels, but it’s finding the time when it’s actually on as opposed to watching late at night via tivo….ah…it’s going to be a fun of year of changes but I”m sure we’ll cope!  so far everyone loves the new red hair, just hoping it lasts.  I dyed my hair red in college and my hair wouldnt keep the color, it faded so quickly.  I guess at least if I dont like it and it fades I can try something else!
