For anyone looking for an easy to use hair dye and bleach combo, I recommend Splat. H used to do DD1s hair (bright pink). I've done my own. I've never attempted anything other than the underneath part by myself, but that was all I was wanting to do at the time anyway. That was also all we would let DD1 do in high school since both the speech team and show choir required her to have regular color hair, we had to be able to hide it. You can get it at more stores, Riteaid definitely has it and for the color and bleach (same box) it's less than $15. For the underneath 1/2 of DD1s, we used 2 boxes. Her hair was really long and it's thick. Edit to add price Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm feeling better both mentally and physically. The bleeding is now dark spotting and I slept until about 8, when Allison woke up. H is taking her out for lunch in a couple hours and then they'll play in the backyard (pool, bubbles, painting) so I get a break and can sleep or whatever. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hallelujah! I think I finally got through to DH about the seriousness of tightening the car seat straps properly. He told me that after our conversation and the video I made him watch yesterday, he had multiple nightmares last night about getting in accidents with the kids not being properly restrained. I'm hoping he'll be more careful about it now.

fierymama I've just started saying straight out what I want or need from H. Yes I think he should understand himself, but I'd rather have the help than wait for him to realize. We are on vacation in NC, but it hasn't been great. DH and I have just not been communicating well and it leaves me depressed and him withdrawn and sulky. This sucks.

We are at my best friends house at the beach. It's been a good time but we had to cut the beach time short because there was no way N would nap down there. PDQ Mod abuse, deleted pics what beach?

So the new tapatalk update kind of sucks Betweenthelines. It's showing all gifs as. Broke links and I have to go to desktop. Hence posting my own Gif twice.

So update on my hair mamascarlett or anyone else thinking they might want to use the colorista stuff. Anytime I scratch my scalp or run my fingers through my hair there's teal under my nails. I rinsed it in the shower today (no shampoo or anything) and it's already faded a ton. Don't think I'd use this brand again.

I've always wanted to dye the ends of my hair pink and purple. My friend does hers with temp dye every once and a while and it looks amazing.
Does it really fade out? I'm always worried it won't look nice blonde after.

CestLaVie I think blonde is a better base to try funky colors on. Since mine is red I had to bleach it when I did the navy. It looked great and the navy faded really pretty through all different shades of blue, but I won't bleach my hair again. The places that were bleached still don't hold color well, although this last time I dyed my hair was better. But blues and purples fade quickly. From what I've seen pink stays better.

I'm dying. I never even thought about the fact that the pride parade is today, right now and the museum is at the location. LOL DS believes that all of these 1000s of people are here and partying for him. It's priceless

But why? A group of people jumped in there being extremely territorial and rude. That makes you want to post with them? Parenting was very welcoming and everyone has this impression of them that they weren't, so they were afraid to post. That's on them. If you (general) jumped in a posted, you would've seen that. I posted a few times in parenting and just got ignored and/ or couldnt keep up with flow of conversation, but noone was ever rude to me. I posted on cloth diapering and was treated kinda shitty cuz of my wrongthink. So i just stopped. so what happened over there. I saw the post on the main board about the website, but didnt read all 75 pages. Why are ppl pissed at naria?

booarogue I love the hair! I really want to dye mine but black hair means I have to bleach the f out of it. It'd be close to $200 to do what I want to it. Maybe I can afford it in like, 11 years.

I'm really kind of emotionally losing it actually. The pulse shooting anniversary is approaching, new footage is being released of first responders, and all these horrible senseless acts of violence. I don't understand why it keeps happening and why do we have to raise our kids in this. Ugh...
Sorry. Gonna sniffle, wipe my eyes and move on.

Have decided that this is the summer I finally stop whining about the heat and start embracing it.
...Someone remind me of this when I'm bitching in a few weeks ok?

ALSO. Naturally the ONE GAME I miss is the game where DS kicked ass! He scored two runs for his team, including one in the bottom of the 9th...bases loaded, 2 outs and tie game. He hits it FAR and we get the run and the win! He's been working so hard (truthfully this definitely hasn't come naturally for him so it's been a bit of a struggle!) and he's BEAMING right now! I'm so happy for him but bummed I missed it

I completely get it, RunsforWineandCarbs. The Manchester attack, in particular, really hit me hard. All of it is so sad. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We made it home and I'm chilling on the couch and drinking wine. I should gym and should catch up completely but that'll have to wait until tomorrow. I'm beat from soloing with a ridiculous child. We also got some news from mama's dr that I'll post once N is in bed, as it is a lot.

We surprised the kids with a trip to Chucky cheese for late afternoon shenanigans and dinner due to poor weather...when they found out the car was filled with shrill screams if delight!
