THere are a couple things they can do that I try to make my blonde DD do. If they rinse off really well before getting in the pool, getting their hair fully wet, that will help because the hair can't absorbe as much clorinated water since they are already saturated with the fresh water. She could also comb conditioner through their hair before going in the pool. I think that is suppose to work the same way. Lastly, there is clorine shampoo just for this problem. You can find it at Target or WM.

Yep yep yep
Used to have to do all that (and my sister still does with my niece) but now Ruby's hair isn't super light blonde anymore- so we seem to be doing fine with just rinsing hair beforehand and shampooing pretty soon after getting out of the chlorinated water/pool. my sister does the condition before going/chrorine shampoo still though because her eldest still has very light blond hair- and long. it tends to happen on the lightest part of the hair and on the ends mostly-- guess that's why it doesn't happen to boys with short hair cause their hair isn't sitting in the water even when they are standing up?

All together......

We are the people our parents warned us about

I cannot wait to enjoy your HOT 84 and 91 degree days!!! We haven't been under 100 in a long time.

I"m with you, Lisa!! However, I really just want to be able to LEAVE air conditioning . . .LOL. I like it warm, but the cold air conditioning is getting to me . . . DS11 wore a sweatshirt and jeans to church this AM b/c he had been shivering the other mornings we've been there. He was toasty going in (with his hoody on), but comfy in the air conditioning once he got there

OH, and the other thing I miss is a BREEZE . . .we haven't had much for awhile. This close to the ocean we usually don't miss it much so I'm looking forward to those ocean breezes

Good night for now

I had a nice surprise this evening - DS9's teacher for next year called us to let us know he will be in her class. We arranged to stop by and "meet" her (he does know who she is already) and bring his school supplies in one morning next week. I am so relieved to have this settled - we were concerned we wouldn't find out until his first day of school (5 days after the first day for everyone else). She sounded really nice on the phone. The principle had told me last spring that they "might" be able to tell us right before we left. I had sent an email explaining the whole thing and requested that if we weren't able to contact the teacher ahead of time that he let the new teacher know. I guess they just assigned DS9 today and the principle gave her the email - she pushed a bit and got permission to contact us (she did ask we not tell any of the other school families so they don't get tons of parents trying to find out early!)

That's great! I am trying to find out for my DDs and am running into a few brick walls that I did not foresee. DD14 is going to her high school tomorrow for a tour. We'll see if they give her the schedule or not.

You are so lucky that you get to do that. I don't get to do that much, plus we just moved to Colorado so I really do know anyone close. I wish I could come, lol. I just hope that you have a relaxing time and please enjoy it. I am stil up too and it's 12:15 am here.

Getting tired but still up.

That is such a blessing for your friend. I am so happy that she is cancer free. You both deserve a night out and I hope that you both have a great time. I do the samething as late night stuff. But I am actually getting tired. The kids are finally asleep and its my time and it's very pieceful.

Tell me how your dinner goes...Good luck.

...[ed]...!

Gee.... just under 160 postings to the PIRATE PRIZE.... ya suppose anyone else is hanging around? Anyone up for a FRIENDLY sprint to 3000 tonite?

Well... it looks like we're running down to the last hand full of days prior to embarkation. Many of us will be flying soon to get into LA for the cruise.

I had a huge multi-quote covering 700-500 postings back with MY intended replies to your remarks directed at me - or of a few interesting postings which drew my attention for remarks and likely an image or two... but something locked my computer up and I LOST the GIANT MULTI-QUOTE.

So as - the last comment I was looking at before things melted down - was a very kind reply on ZIP LINING... in Puerto Vallerta. I am possibly going to do it NOW that I have info on it... and I know PAULA .. you sent me info a long time ago but I seem to have deleated it because I thought my party would not do it several months ago. Now I've decided that I'm going to dump my group for this because I want to do it. They can come out and watch if they want to - otherwise they;re on their own for half the day in PV!

Anyways - Julianna wants to reserve for this with me.... the courageous little munchkin. SO...with any luck we'll spot some of our kind and adventurous DIS neighbors out there on this. http://www.canopytours-vallarta.com/index.htm
