My Mullet

this !

^^He loves to snuggle.

Although the other day he pawed me right in the face! I think he was trying to do a paw-to-handshake and got me on the cheek instead. I am lucky his little nails didn’t scratch me too badly!

Both boys like to be lap dogs *crying laughing emoji* This means that 99% of the time I have dog hair all over my yoga pants.

Let’s talk about human hair! About a month ago I got a really bad haircut from a stylist in training. Think 90s-style chunky layers that were not well blended at all. It was basically a mullet on my right side. I could have gone back and had it all chopped off, but I just didn’t want to go that short, and when my hair was curled, in a ponytail or bun, or clipped back you couldn’t see it, so I’ve just been letting it grow out.

I went to a new salon this week – Moxie Hair Lounge – at the recommendation of some of my friends, and I am on my way to having normal hair again. Between trimming off an inch and blending the layers, she was able to close the mullet gap a bit. A few more months and I’ll be even again. No more layers!!

Also on the topic of beauty, this lip balm came from Birchbox and I am in love with it! The balm is purple in the tube, but when it goes on it magically turns into a pink shade suited for your lips. I love the feel of lip balm much more than lip stick or gloss, so this is a great all-in-one product for me!

^^ you also might notice that I have a cell phone case addition. I get a new one way more often than any normal person should. My sister had one from The Casery on her phone at Christmas, and I loved the feel so much I had to get one too. It might be my favorite case to date! I’ve been wanting a case with a card slot that I can use for nights on the town, and I am debating between this one and this one. Do you have one you love?

We have finally come out of our arctic blast week here, and it’s been in the balmy 40s, 50s and even 60s. Sometimes I look outside in the winter and can hardly believe it’s the same world that has me sweating while sipping a cold drink on my porch.

But to make up for those lost warm days, Thomas has been filling our house with plants!

The above is watching over my morning green smoothie, and the below, the Nesta, we got for Christmas from T’s mom. I feel like saying that you don’t love plants is like saying you don’t love puppies, but I am still warming up to houseplants. They sometimes make my clutter alarm go off! But I’m finding that having the right pots and planters is totally key for me. I love these new guys and how they add a touch of the tropics to our living room! If T insists on adding more, I love the super modern planters like this one and this one.

For lunches this week I’ve been loving smoked salmon and cream cheese sandwiches with capers, pickle, and greens.

And for dinners, we’ve been eating this on repeat, which I will be telling you all about very soon!

Have a great weekend!

    Oh, I hate it when a stylist messes up a haircut. I know it’s just hair and it’ll grow out, but still! But you got yours totally fixed up, it looks good now! 🙂

      Haha!! Part of my addiction is I just haven’t found one that I love in both look AND feel. I would totally go caseless if these phone screens were a bit less breakable! Caseless is the best look and feel for me.

        the phones are gorgeous without a case. sadly i am too klutzy to carry one like that. so instead i buy lots of cases to match my mood and outfits. hahahaha.

      Otterbox is certainly the best! Not the prettiest but I’ve dropped my phone a few times and it’s very protective.

    Ahh I just got an accidental mullet during my last haircut too (never a good thing when you hear your stylist say ‘oops…’)! I feel your pain – lots of wearing it up or wearing it curly. Your new haircut looks great and I love the color!

    I love a card carrying iPhone case! These are not as stylish as the ones you are looking at, but the case is super solid (in case you drop it) and I love that it’s almost hidden storage – so no one really knows that you have a credit card or ID in there 🙂

    Not sure what model phone you have, but I had this for my 6:

    And now have this for my X (the rose gold is so pretty!):
    https://www.spigen.com/collections/iphone-x/products/iphone-x-case-crystal-wallet?variant=37407757313

    Spigen has a version for all models of iPhones. I think they all hold two cards easily and I’ve LOVED them.

      I like how that case protects the cards from falling out. That would be my fear!

    I love house plants. They’re like the finishing touch for a room. Unfortunately, I have a black thumb. I have an abundance of dog hair with three dogs, but I consider it an accessory.

    Hi Kath, I have been reading your blog for years and look forward to reading daily. I wanted to give you a heads up that I have been trying to read your blog posts all this week and each time that I am reading a post, I get bombarded with ads and amazon ads that pop up and make me have to close my tab and start back over multiple times just to read one post. I am not sure if any other reader is having this issue; but it is a nuisance! Have a great weekend!

      I’m so sorry. A few other people have reported this and my ad guy is working hard to track down the bad ad code. Can you please tell me your browser and if you’re on a phone or computer?

        Hi Kath – I also had the same issue as Paige. I am on a computer and using Firefox as my browser.

    Can you share deets on the sweatshirt you’re wearing in the first two photos? That subtle gray stripe is calling my name!

      It’s from LOFT, but it’s a few seasons old. Have you seen the Lou and Grey line there? My sweatshirt is sort of similar to this one.
