  • Yeah, I don’t religiously follow the steps either. It’s more like a buffet of tips where I sample some of them. I still shampoo, but much less often. My other take aways were to stop using a hairbrush, I rarely use a wide tooth comb anymore either (mostly finger comb in the shower) , and don’t touch the hair while it’s drying.

    If I have a party or something, I’ll use gel and let it form a proper cast, etc etc.




  • What do you like to do in your free time? That will help give us an idea of where to recommend based on what is available to do & is still in reasonable driving distance for you.

    Like history? Consider Gettysburg, Manassas, Fredericksburg, Yorktown, or Williamsburg.

    Like wine? There are dog-friendly vineyards, breweries, and distilleries all up and down Virginia’s wine country. Look into Leesburg or Charlottesville as a central base.

    Annapolis, MD and Alexandria, VA are both very dog friendly and have adorable “old town” sections with delicious food and shops. These towns are also great if you like photography.

    But if you have a portable hobby like painting or reading or even gaming on a console, a little island all to yourselves for a week where the dog runs free and you entertain yourself with your hobby sounds like heaven.



  • Just about an hour ago, I couldn’t find my sunglasses. I was waiting in the car to pick up my nephew. I had worn my sunglasses in order to drive there. But after he got in the car and I went to back out of my parking space, I couldn’t find my glasses. They weren’t on my head or in a cupholder. I just had them, where did they go? I haven’t left the car; I think they must have fallen under the seat. Nephew says nothing. So I reach for my backup sunglasses I keep in the little holder above the rear view mirror. Drive nephew home, continue on my way home. Parked in a shady spot by my garage, & I went to take my sunglasses off so I could see better. I tried to hook them on my shirt collar. And that’s where my first pair was.









  • We watched Flow. It’s exquisitely beautiful. It’s a Latvian film yet it feels like it was inspired by Ghibli. Very well done. No characters perish (there are 2 characters where that’s debatable), but my gods I was hella stressed out for the main characters throughout the whole series of events. I think I’ll have to watch it again so I can appreciate more of it now that I know the outcome. There are mysteries presented that are just left as mysteries. We never get the answers for them. Leaves a lot open for interesting discussion.
