tcumom ~ yw.  I have found some places will partner up another student to help, or does your school allow help/volunteers to come in? 

[mrs. red]

Y'all ~ I'm smilin' big ~ I'll never need to seek therapy, cause I have my monkeys!

yep yall are my therapy!!!

Shoe Alert

Mrs Red  have you been looking at shoes for fall?  I know you haven't had much time but, we are talking shoes here.  lol  I have a magazine that came with my Texas Monthly mag this month.  It's called "Fashion" and there are some great looking shoes.  It seems there are a lot of shoes with that 40's and 50's look.  I've seen a few in the newspaper that seem to echo that style

Actuallly I have, and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the 40's look!  I love the clothes too... but the shoes are to die for!!

my shoe blog will be up and running again soon..... it's about to change it's "tired old look".... LOL

[MuffyBee]

tcumom:  I've seen some of those pesky entitled parents.  They think their kids walk on water...

[mrs. red]

Ok... does anyone know how to make your hair color fade faster?  I got my colored yesterday... and it's way too dark...... and not even red anymore...

I am not liking it.... and don't know what the heck I was thinking????

Try Prell shampoo

Oh yes!  They say it is like detergent and to never use on your hair!!  LOL... and that should work!   It's only a couple of shades too dark... LOL

I went thru this years ago.. and it worked for me.

Prell shampoo.. mix a little baking soda in it.. and put it on your dry hair. Do your whole head and leave it soak on there about 30 to 40 minutes. I had called my friends mother who had a beauty salon.. that was her advice to me. she also said Dawn dishwashing liquid works and IIRC Tide too. 

[Angiex911dsptchr]

What happened to me was someone swicthed the hair color on the box at the store.. so instead of being brunette.. I was jet black... it was awful.

my hair went from a light reddish brown, auburn to the same color as yours - a shade darker....

 

I will use Prell.... with two recommendations, it can't be wrong!

She has an aide with her in every class.  The mother does not want student helpers, even to help in the cafeteria.  Part of the Mom's problem is her confrontational attitude about everything.....not just this child. 
I *can* say that we all bend over backwards to be supportive, understanding, and positive ..... the family does have live-in help . . . that doesn't make-up for the situation, but it does ease some of the stress. 
They are quite fortunate in being able to live very well.  Again, it doesn't take away the challenges, but does provide an occasional break. 
Mom is involved in ALL aspects of school, and I will be talking with her daily.

[mrs. red]

well, I asked her to make it brown and dark... but I didn't mean this dark


not the hairdresser's fault... my own!  but if I am not my own worst enemy sometimes...


TCU, I didn't mean to hijack the thread... please keep us posted on your progress with this mom....

Hair Color That Is Too Dark
Option #1:

If you or your stylist colored your hair and the shade is too dark you have a few options.  Pour some Prell shampoo  into the palm of your hand.  Pat the shampoo on top of your dry hair and make sure the shampoo covers completely.  Leave the shampoo on your hair for 30-45 minutes.  Rinse with warm water. 

Option #2:

Apply hot oil to your hair.  Use extra virgin olive oil if possible.  Wrap your hair in plastic and let sit for 45 minutes.  Take Prell shampoo and pat on top of the oil.  Let sit for 5 minutes.  Rinse well with warm water.   

Option #3:

Apply Queen Helene, Vo5 or similar hot oil to your hair.   Wrap your hair in plastic and let sit for 60 minutes.  Shampoo with clarifying shampoo like Philou Green Apple or Suave clarifying.  Rinse well with warm water.

OK, that is one of the meanest things I've heard of where practical jokes are concerned.

And I am glad I never had that idea when I was a mischevious youngster!

Oh.  Okay.  One of THOSE moms, that turns everyone off and makes it harder for the rest of folks with kids with problems.  Gives everyone a bad name.

[mrs. red]

Y'all ~ I hope someone watches Dancing with the Stars ~ I LOVE LOVE LOVE that show. 

I just read that Wayne Newton will be on it 

Also, Tori Spelling, some girl from 90210 or whatever that show is, and some SPICE girl.   

Gosh ~ I must be old ~ I hope they don't try and make this into a teenage-20 something show ~ the appeal will be gone for me if that's what happens.
