Michael goes Makeup Shopping

Story Time:
So today I asked my sweet husband if he could please grab some of my makeup while he was at the store.
I was trying to explain to him that I HAD to have the color 110 foundation. He said they were out but he could get the 120 and I said "No that will be too tan, it won't match my face! I'll get it next time I'm at another store."
He grumbles but moves on.
Next I'm trying to describe the mascara. A specific brand. A specific kind of that brand. None water proof. And then trying to explain to him how to find the right shade of black. "There's more than one black?"
"Their ALL black, but I want blacklist black. Not brownish black, blueish black, pearl black or just black. The blackist black."
"What the hell!?"
"See how hard it is to be a woman?"
"No woman just make it hard. There should be only one. Just black."
"We like options."

Haha If you want a good laugh ask your husband or boyfriend to get your makeup. But he was so sweet to get it for me and he did good. I just think its funny how complicated it was. But I am the same way when it comes to auto or tool stuff so...

I do have to give him credit. He always goes to the store for me and never hesitates or complains if I ask him to grab me anything, no matter what it is.

A nice November Day

Today the weather was unusually warm, peeking at 75 degrees and sunny all day. Even late afternoon it was in the upper 60's. This is very weird for November, especially here. We should have snow by now. Not that Im complaining though. We had a wonderful time taking the dogs for a walk through the field, and they had even more fun.

 Im not sure if they know they are dogs, or think they are some sort of Rabbit breed. haha They dont run through the grass- they bound. 

Head over to our YouTube channel to watch all the fun.

My super fun Drs apt

So its no big update that I have been sick for awhile. But I had such a wonderful experience at the doctor today I just wanted to highlight it.     >.<

So I had to get some blood work done, and even though I had to undergo getting blood work done on like 10 separate occasions last year- I am still a HUGE baby when it comes to doctors and needles. Luckily my Dr is really nice and had the lab tech or whatever she's called, come upstairs to my room to get my blood privately. So I didn't have to wait in a room with a ton of people. But she could not find my vein in the first arm she tried, and after spending what felt like an eternity digging the needle around in my arm (which apparently I wasn't breathing for) she pulled it out to try the other arm... And I passed out.
UGH!
So I had to lay down for like 10 minutes. And then have her try again in the other arm, while I remained laying down so I wouldn't pass out again.
But anyways- it will be days before any of those tests come back. And a couple weeks before I go to see the specialist. So I will keep an update, fingers crossed we get this figured out because the last several months have been miserable.

The true test of teamwork = Furniture Assembly

Theres a joke that says if you want to know how strong your relationship try putting furniture together. lol It really tests your teamwork and ability to follow instructions.

                                                      

Michael was just going to "Put it together really fast" before we could hang out. So I ended up getting suckered into helping him so he would come Give me Attention soon- cause Im needy like that. 

2 Hours later we have an office desk! And our marriage is still intact. haha We only had to take it apart and put it together a different way two or three times.

And I made a whole blog post about it because Im so impressed that its in one piece and we actually got it together.

Road Trips

 Every month we have to make a 9 hour round trip drive to a doctor a few cities over. 

It is an endless drive that takes up our whole day, but we always go together. I take the day off work and we drive out there. We moved out here to further our jobs and make money, so we spend most of our time apart working working working. 

Even though the drive sucks, its one of the only times we get to spend a whole day of undivided attention together. 

I get car sick every time. But these are my favorite days because we spend hours and hours with nothing to do but sit together and talk. You learn more and more about each other the longer your together, but I am always surprised the new stories and things I learn about him. 

Ambers New Hair

Today I changed my hair again. I took my natural color from the roots and pulled it down through the white blonde and added more of an ashy cool tone to it. This way I don't have to have my hair touched up every 6 weeks and it can grow out a little and not be skunk striped.

It is Pinterest perfect <3 Exactly like the picture I took in.

Below is my hair right after it was dyed the white blonde. I love the platinum, but the upkeep is insane and really expensive. Plus its not the healthiest for my hair. So I thought I would go darker as we shifted into fall.

Im not sure which I like better. I think my new hair is cute, but I miss the white too, so Im torn.
