Wordpress: easier on mobile?

Since I have a 2.5 month old, I want to find a very easy way to blog from my iPhone. I was going through some japanese websites and it seems like everybody blogs from their mobile.



Find me on wordpress for the time being:

Palty Japanese Foam Hair Color










I'm a hairdresser by trade. I got my license after I graduated highschool, practiced color technician for a few years and quit. Since I still have my license I professionally color hair on the side for my mom and anybody else who asks. I kinda stopped doing hair because I had pictures of what I wanted somebody's hair color to be but then the client would get all scared and my creativity juices would just get killed.

I work for the government'ish now so I've done a 180 since hairdressing LOL

Anyways, I'm always up for trying out new hair color. I've probably tried every drugstore hair color on the market. I have recently found japanese hair dyes. I dropped by a local chinesey trendy store and picked up a box of Palty Foam hair color in custard beige. I can't read japanese so I did my best from the instructions I saw. Afterwards I did some googling and found out I didn't shake the water base properly but whatever~

FYI, I previously bleached out my hair with goldwell bleaching creme with 12% peroxide. And my hair is naturally curly and I flat-ironed it today morning so its looks a bit frizzy.

Here are the before and after pics!

Past pictures of my nails

















Its been 2.5 months now since I've had my daughter. It was a rough pregnancy and rough labor and delivery, and a very tough postpartum. Now I feel like I'm coming out of my shell again and wanting to do my nails again just to feel fresh and new. I did my nails a few years ago when I got married in 2009. I had them done every month for a year and I loved them. I usually got gel nails as they were the most comfortable. I had acrylics done once and they were very lovely but painful.

My nails are done by Grace by Graceful Beauty. You can find her work here:

Happy Boxing Day!!



Pregnancy has not been good to me. I pulled my hamstring due to the lack of furniture aka. couch in my mom's basement. I'm 7 months preggos and getting up from the floor since we do not have furniture. Isn't it pitiful?? Anyways I've been handicapped for the last few days, limping around and grabbing my right cheek so I can isolate the muscle as I walk. GIMP!!

What did everybody get for Christmas??

We got Apple'd this xmas, not sure if that's a good thing or bad thing. Hubby and I are on the baby budget so we didn't go all out. I can rely on Hubs to get me what I really wanted, a pair of stretchy yoga pants and a big box of Lush products. yay!!

Pregnancy Klutz

What is it about being pregnant that makes women into total klutz? Is our motor skills running low because we're making a baby??

Ive had countless encounters with near miss accidents since being pregnant, things that would of never occurred if I wasn't pregnant.

For example today, I'm doing the dishes as usual and I spill and entire bowl of water on myself and on the floor. Next I'm trying to pour some cereal in my bowl, then i spill half the bowl of cereal on the table and on the floor.

Lets not mention the near miss swipe of my civic when I decided to dodge the van on my right side and ended up swiping his rear end and my entire right side.

Ugh.

Happy Halloween Everyone!
