Storms~

It may have been storming inside, but it was storming outside as well. The first storm that came through two days ago, decided to take out the fence that keeps Cotie in. There was a good 10 foot section that was knocked out, took out the stock fencing as well as the hot tape. Well, I found it that night after I got home from work. The tree was fairly substantial. Thankfully Cotie didn't think it was necessary to go on a walk-about, since he was still there and staying away from the tree. so, we broke out the chainsaw and cut the thing apart. The base of the tree was resting on another tree, so a good section was up in the air, when it was released, it suddenly pitched the opposite way. Like a see saw. Cotie must be pretty mellow since he didn't even flinch while the saw was running. We did what we had to, repaired the fence and all was well. Hopefully we won't have more substantial storms come through. All the fields are totally saturated so more rain and it will be Leigh's Lake here.

Wax On, Wax Off.......

Who in the hell invented this torture? That's what I would like to know? Who in their right mind would ever think that waxing was a good idea? That crap is bloody painful!

Tonight my daughter said - Here mom, try this, just put it on, let it harden then pull it off. Alllllrighty then. I'm game to try just about anything once. Sooooo... I put the wax on my right eyebrow. Did as instructed, then rip. Oh My God, I had a Come to Jesus moment. I thought I was going to see stars or something. What's worse, is I started the one side so I had to do the other - right? Only when I did my Left eyebrow, I didn't see the wax get on to my eye LID. After I got done crying, I thought, this Has to be a "new" form of Torture. I can NOT imagine what it must feel like for a bikini wax. I'm Sure would pass out!! My eyebrows Still hurt. I swear I drew blood when I ripped part of the wax off. So much for my eyebrows. I'm sure going to miss them until they grow back again. I hope they do grow back.. Oy..... Never again!
