I know it has been 3 months since I last posted, and I am sorry. I plan on redeeming myself when the kids go back to school next week by posting about all of my heartbreaks and hair-raising adventures since September.

Don't lose heart, though, for I have two items of note for everyone today.

Item #1:

We still don't have our new house.

The other bank is holding us up.

It is very frustrating.

Our closing date was supposed to be December 19th.

I am very sad.

I want my new house.

I don't like that bank very much right now.

I didn't like that bank very much before this, so I guess it is no great loss.

It is hard to choose paint colors when you know they won't change for a long time.

The house needs a new roof.

My husband and father-in-law will put the new roof on.

I don't go up on roofs. They scare me.


Item #2:

My not-so-little Emma turned 8 in November and was baptized. She has had long hair practically since she was born. It grows faster than any other head of hair I have ever heard about. Rapunzel was scared Emma would steal her spotlight, so I had to promise to keep it cut above her little tushie.

Well, per a promise I made to Emma last year, after she was baptized...

She cut her hair.


16 inches... GONE.
.

I didn't know she has 16 inches to lose.


Her ponytail was sent to Locks of Love to benefit another little girl.


I like her new look. So does she.

Rapunzel is very relieved.
