This may not look like much to you; however I am very excited about it.  Hubby, a friend and boy 1 built this fence on Sunday.  I am thrilled.  I can now just open the back door for the dog - he can walk out back and I do not have to beg anyone to take him on a walk. Things are really coming together now.  If we could just get the rest of our things! They say we should have our stuff by June 4.  Keep your fingers crossed!

Here are a few updates on things we have talked about in the past:

1. My rose bushes look DEAD!  I am so sad, I am still holding out hope that they will come back next season.

2. Boy 1 has another new girlfriend.  She is very cute, but moving back to the states in about a week.  He will be heartbroken I am sure. 

3. Boy 3 goes on his first photo shoot today!  It is for a French clothing company. 


How cute is he?!  He is going to be famous.  (I'm just kidding, but he is cute!)


NEXT: Jana (one of my 2 faithful readers & commenters next to my sister Kathie) ask how the shopping prices are.  Well, it is hit or miss.  Some things are outrageously expensive, where other things are dirt cheap.  I haven’t really figured it out yet.  You can bargain here, which I was a bit uneasy with at first, well, who am I kidding?  I am still uneasy with it, but I am doing it a little more now.  I am certain that by the time we have our first visitors I will be a pro.  Anyway, you can get great knock-offs for really good prices, purses, jerseys, leather goods and so on.  As for clothes, I am still ordering my clothes from the states, I seem to get better prices from the states and lots of retailers offer free shipping & get things here quickly.  (Our zip code is California, not South Korea)  You can get Korean trinkets & souvenirs cheap.  Oh, and you can get custom made clothes for cheap, we haven’t tried it yet, but I am sure hubby will be having several custom made suits before we leave here.  I have a neighbor that will be taking me to the fabric market soon where fabric is supposed to be cheap.  I am going to have custom made curtains for our house.  So, to make a long answer long, I haven’t figured it all out, but I am working on it.   

I have a question for you guys.....blonde or brunette?
 

 

That is hubbies sexy look....again just kidding.  I don't really know what we are doing here, just being silly.  I didn't put in a brunette picture, as you can see them all over this website.  I am thinking blonde, I mean I have been a blonde forever, and I think I gave this brunette thing a good try.  What do you think?

Loved the brunette, but I think blonde is more you. AND, you match your kids better, and the Koreans will like it.

Brunette, totally! Like Molly said, it makes you notice your eyes and you have more color. But more important, what does Hubby think?

I'm confused. The brunette is definitely dark. But, this current picture, it doesn't look bleachy blond, it looks more like it's in between. I like the photo of the hair color , if it's not too blond. I finally did it myself too. I got it all cut off, I was trying to grow it before 40, but I gave up. And I got it colored, which I haven't done since my wedding, ten years ago. It's got blonds, browns, and some reds in it. It looks good, I think! What religion are Koreans?? I know that's an off the wall question, just curious!!

Do you have good housing? Are you scrapbooking all these pictures? Do you have a scrapbook room again?

Yes, I just felt like sticking my full name in there (above).... look at me, look at me! (I'm a dork... oops, wrong button)

Okay, back to business. EVERYONE knows brunettes rule, and are considered more intelligent (don't judge by the missed button above). However, you and Jeremy are the ones that must live with this oh-so-important decision on a daily basis. Whatever you do, GET PROFESSIONAL HELP with this matter. I can't stress that too much! As your friend, I will say, I love you dark or light. It's what's inside that counts. Now I will go back to my lovely glass of chardonnay. Miss you!
