Yawn...I Need Some Help.

Help me! I'm a sucker for infomercials. At three a.m. when I can't sleep, I watch them. I have made many a foolish purchase in the wee hours of the morning. Yes, I have the Magic Bullet. I have the Microwave Pasta Cooker and the Ronco Electric Dehydrator . I had the Thigh Master and Jane Fonda's Treadmill. I have the Ped Egg, and a nail sysytem that is impossible. I have this lint roller set that is supposed to last forever. Guess what? They're all big fat disappointments:(
Well, the latest item that has intrigued me is the Instyler. It is supposed to perform miracles with bad hair. I saw it happen with my very own groggy eyes on the tv! I just came this close to ordering it online. It's a two-for-the-price-of-one deal. Only $14.99 and three monthly payments of $39.99! And you can even pay extra to have it shipped within 14 days! Well, just before I clicked the order button, I decided to google some reviews. Some love it, some hate it. Does anyone own this marvel of magic for hair? I've had bad hair for quite awhile now.
Ah heck, maybe I should just buy a sleep aid and get a good night's sleep. Has anyone seen a good infomercial about one?

Mason and Pop




Phil's mom gave me this silhouette of Phil that was done when he was in kindergarten. I am amazed at how much Mason's silhouette looks like Phil's.

Healthy Healthy Harper

Lauren just sent this photo from Harper's 18 month check-up.
Pretty sturdy looking little girl, right? She looks like she's eaten a few meals at OINK! or could be their poster girl.
I think she's adorable!

OINK!


Phil and I tried out the new barbeque restaurant down Hwy. 17. It's called "Oink!". I loved it. Phil didn't. The barbeque was the N. Carolina kind. It's chopped really fine with very little sauce. They have the red vinegar based sauce that is soooooo good! I had two sides- baked beans and rice and tomatoes. Phil had the green beans and barbequed potatoes. He said the beans were too hot. Waa! I was very pleased with my side items. My only complaint was with the cornbread. It was flat, dry, and hard. The service was great! We were seated immediately. Our food was delivered to our table in less than 10 minutes. I say Melvin's has some competition.
