Tackle It Tuesday #116

by Carolyn

Okay Ladies!

Here we are, together again… I actually had a great time visiting a lot of your blogs last week to personally thank you for all the prayers and support through my struggles.

I wanted to let you know that if you really want me to come see your tackle I will most likely visit through the comments, not the Mr. Linky because it is less confusing for me :o ) I love visiting.

This week’s photos make me laugh a little because I told my hubby he is now going to be “modeling” for 5 minutes for mom, LOL!

What I got done today were hair cuts, not all that hard, mostly buzzing, but I did do them myself and my poor son I did have a hard time with because he also has a bit of a cold.

It is far too hot in my house the past couple days, and it’s only supposed to get hotter! Oye! I am not a fan of hot weather!

Take a look…

What are you tackling? Link up and let us know!

Join Us For Tackle It Tuesday

We’re making housework blog-able!

Each week on Tuesday, we are posting before and after pictures of a project or trouble area that we tackled this week.

Find out more about Tackle It Tuesday here.

The project can be little or big – whatever you want. Basically, Tackle It Tuesday is about giving ourselves incentive, deadlines and satisfaction in getting our household tasks done. (It doesn’t even have to be housework… just whatever is on your To Do list.)

If you tackled a project this week, just add a comment and add your link below.

Get your tackle on ladies…

Wow, I’m first?! :)

Great job on the haircuts! It looks like they’ll be much cooler for the rest of the summer. :)

Mine is a continuation of our huge bedroom switching project from last week – the ‘after’ photos of the girls’ new bedrooms. :)

Oh, good job on the hair cuts! Way better than I do.

This week I tackled getting ready for the new school year. Have the whole thing mapped out, with screen shots to prove it. Woo-hoo!

The haircuts look nice. (Your son is a cutey even with a cold!)

This week (this month!) I’m tackling preschool prep for my four year old Michael. I’m so nervous and excited at the same time…

I buzz all my boys too lol. We’ve had to give hair cuts inside lately because of the mosquitos outside. They lie in wait right outside the door for their victims lol.
Great tackle.
Blessings,
Kim

Great job! I gave my husbands and 2 sons short summer cuts… but they already need to be done again. Sometimes I feel like cutting mine the same way!! :)

Great job on the cuts! I do my girls’ hair, but I can only handle straight lines! My husband cuts his own hair, and every now and then, he needs me to try to fix the blending. Oy!

Great tackle with the haircuts! I doubt I could get my girls to sit still for them. LOL. Which reminds me – I need to get their haircuts…thanks!

Oh great tackle! I used to buzz Zane’s hair but now that he’s older he wants that long hair. I guess I’m okay with it, he looks cute with it long. LOL

I buzz Prince Charming’s hair for him too! Great tackle! I have even done Princess Belle’s hair in the past, but I am more inclined to leave her hair to the experts from now on.

Pat on the back on the haircuts! My husband won’t let me near his head with scissors and come to think of it neither will my two year old! lol What does that say?

Wow, I tried haircuts once and have been ban from ever picking up the shaver again, lol. Great job!!!

18 Kelly August 12, 2008 at 10:10 am

Yay, I was right! Great job, Carolyn. My man never would let me do his hair again after I gave him the “reverse mohawk” accidentally. Oops.

Still praying for you, girl!

Love those shaver cuts. Good job.

Since I’ve started reading this post each week I’ve been getting a bit better at getting a goal done. Thanks.
This is the first week I’ve added my blog to mr. linky. I hope you enjoy.

Great job on the haircuts! Your little guy is positively precious!! I buzz my guys too, but DH’s hair is so thick I’m always afraid the trimmer will blow out, lol. Not sure I’ll get an official tackle post in, but todays tackle for me is packing for vacation-and wowzers, I have a bunch to do. Smiles!

Great job on cutting your son’s haircut yourself. I just tackled my 10 month old’s FIRST haircut, but I chickened out and paid someone else do it. I’ll have to get the courage to do it myself when he gets a little older. This is my 2nd time I have participated in Tackle it Tuesday and I’m loving it! I’m getting so many of those little things done that make a huge difference around the house.
