sisters, makeup and waiting

Makeup, as wonderful as it is can be alot of trouble especially when it comes to younger sisters and is paired with the never ending search for the perfect shirt, bottoms, earrings, hair, shoes, etc. no matter how early you have them start getting ready it will take them at least half an hour past when you wanted to leave, and then chances are that by the time you get out to the car and are ready to pull out of the driveway they forgot something and have to go get it....and all the while we are trying to find something to keep us occupied that isn't to involved(like blogging about it)in the slim chance they may be done in a moment or two(hannah, if you are reading this, I love you!) I think she may be done.....

Puppies, Annie, and Fall

There are so many wonderful things about fall!! The colors, the smells, the chill in the air! I can't think of a thing i don't love about it! And, yes i realize i am a bit early in rejoicing and proclaiming the glory's of the season, but i have been waiting all summer for it!

Some other good things about fall....

The long, weary wait for the next season in our favorite shows is either over or so close to being over that we can taste it. In case you are interested, here is a list of the showsthat fill the tivo every week...

Lost...even though we still don't have an official start date, they have been tormenting us with previews and teasers that make us crazy trying to figure out just what is happening on the island and why dead people are reappearing.

Heroes...the Season premiere is this coming monday!! What the heck is going on!?! Is Claire going to join the dark side?...

Bones...this season has only been decent so far, and who are they going to get to take Zak's place?

Top Design, Gossip Girl, 90210, Kitchen Nightmares, Project Runway...

Fringe..this show has the potential to be really good, although some of the character realtionships are a bit questionable, but hey, the show just started so i will give it a chance.

Now, on to Annie and Daisy.

Mom and Hannah are out so I am at home "supervising". Have you ever tried supervising a 6 month old 55lb puppy and almost 5 year old? Let me tell you, it is busy work!! Already this morning we have had a near catastrophe, let me divulge...

annie was sitting on the couch watching imagination movers, when she let out an exclamation of surprise and ran out the back door saying that daisy had something. I ran out to investigate and came upon quite a scene, Annie, was chasing daisy screaming then stopped suddenly and those screams turned into hysteric wails and sobs. (I have only ever seen this reaction once before from annie and that was when her beloved "blue b" had been denuded of a fringe in the middle of a tantrum) Once i had deduced that daisy had been playing burglar, and had also been concernedly distracted by the wailing, i snatched the blue b up from the mud and quickly inspected it for any damage and was relieved to discover none, i grabbed a hysterical annie and ran inside, shut the dog out and attempted to tell annie that besides being dirty, her "B" was fine, and that we would wash it right away. After several minutes of sobbing, and snotting, we put the blanket in the washer and calmed down enough to let a very concerned daisy in, sat down and were cheered by an always lovely episode of Charlie and Lola. Things have now calmed down a bit and we are anxiously awaiting the reveal of a fresh. clean, and dry blue b.

I better leave it at that because i haven't seen daisy in the last few minutes and am pretty sure that she is into somthing she shouldn't be and annie is now upset because "the blasted ribbon won't even go in my hair!"

signing off....
