One.
A killer headache this week, which was partially induced by a high ponytail, pushed me to start looking for alternative hairstyles that let me do something with my hair without utilizing the pony. (I have so. much. hair. that is so. thick. it ends up giving me a horrific headache if I try to put it up higher than the base of my neck. I never think about watching YouTube tutorials, but I decided to try it this week and learned how to do the waterfall braid! Here's the video I watched if you want to learn it too!
Two.
It's possible I might be posting this one as much for myself as for any of you! (Hey, I can do that, right?) Anyway. I found this article this week about how Amazon Prime Day is coming. Last year was the first year we had Prime, and I missed the whole thing until it was almost over. So I need a crash course on how to prepare, and this offers just such a course! (If you're proficient in snagging deals, feel free to share your secrets, too!)
Three.
I haven't tried these, so I can't vouch for any of them but it's quite a lovely list of ideas of healthy dishes for the 4th of July. So if you're trying to be good and need some ideas of how to still make festive food, there might be something in this list for you!
Four.
We didn't realize when we purchased our patio furniture last year that our seat cushions double as bird potties. (Our furniture sits well back under our porch overhang, and we didn't know our porch is a prime bird hangout. Eyeroll.) Here are some ways to really clean the cushions, not just to free them from bird festivities, but just to clean them in general!
Five.
Painted picnic baskets! What a great idea! (And tis the season of garage sales, you know, so you might be able to find some real deals!
Six.
And to end your Saturday with a smile, this is the sign I should really get for Ryan. Forget the moon.

Woo! Your picks for this week brought me to a couple of addictive blogs! I could surf the Confessions blog for hours!
The waterfall braid tutorial makes me wish I had long hair!
Oy we used to have that issue with birds on outside cushions too!
Good Saturday six!
I don’t know about patio cushions but our chairs under the tent our bird rest too. Sometimes we have to lay out fake snakes to keep them away. Also sometimes they like to pick up themselves in the stainless of our bus thinking then it’s another bird. So the snakes come out again at times.
I love the sign! I have found a little shop on eBay that I can have anything I want put onto a sign. I’ve done a couple of different metal signs for my dad and they are reasonable!
Tracy - Isn't it fun to find new blogs you can get lost in? Glad you did!
Tamar - Whew! Glad it's not just me!
Odie - I think I'll have to handle the birds because I could NOT handle the snakes! LOL!
