My Weird Husband.......

     ..and I have pictures to prove it.
 
 
     Two weeks into November my husband Harold decided to start growing our his beard, he wanted to participate in the No Shave November. Now it's January and he has yet to shave. When I say not shaved I mean at all, no trim, no shaping, no nothing.
 

                                                                   December 2012
    
     Let me explain a few things about Harold, he gets bored easily AND he likes to annoy me. Harold is ex-military, 6 years in the Army, Airborne Division. During that time he had to be clean cut and clean shaven so when he got out he decided to play with the hair. We have gone thru many different hair styles and facial hair styles. His been clean shaven, slim beard, and goatee but never done the full on mountain man look until now.  I have dealt with all these changes by just accepting them, until now. I HATE the beard, I HATE the Mountain Man look. I find it very unattractive.

     I asked him recently why he felt the need to continue with the beard growth, he's reply--- "Because I (me) cut off all my hair." Now let's give you a little fact, I hate my hair long. I can't do anything with it and I think I look horrible. Harold-- Loves long hair. I have ,over the 15 years we have been together, had many different hair styles but I guess the current one is the shortest. I can't make my hair grow out over night so I get to be punished with the above look. Ugggg........

     Tonight he came home from work and announced he was gonna shave his beard before he went to bed. The girls and I were overjoyed, we even cheered. Boy were in for a surprise...........

     Lovely, isn't it? It just keeps getting worse. So, I need everyone to please help me in my desire to get him to shave. I'm not sure how much more of The Beard I can take before I go crazy.
Help!!!!!!

Long time no write

     Wow!!!! Do you feel neglected or what? Time sure flies when you try to participate in life.

     UPDATE
Still no Job (constantly looking though)
Still Crazy (doubt that will change)
 
     Anywhoo...... Life is crazy even without a job. Harold works ALL the time, somewhat out of necessity and some because his job requires it. Being without a job for the last 3 months has put a but of a strain on our finances. A bit??? how bout a lot. We are barely making and it is getting harder everyday. This being said I have decided to try and find money. I have been trying to sell some of our unneeded/unwanted stuff, we have acquired a lot of crap over the last 15 years. The more I get rid of the happier I will be and the less crap I will have.
     I am also going to try my hand at couponing, easier said than done.I have a good start with the coupons though, my mother-in-law had her papers form the last 2 months, ready for recycling, I searched through them and got a lot. She has also agreed to give me her coupons from her weekly newspapers. While this will help I will also need to scour the Internet for many more. Anyone willing to donate coupon packets please do.
 
 
 
     On another note I have found that I have more energy now that I am not working 9 hours a day, the down side is that I have all these ideas running around in my head and financially not capable of doing them. I would really like to do some redecorating around the house, basically impossible in the current financial situation. Hopefully once I find a job I can maintain some of my energy level and be able to do some decorating.
    Speaking of redecorating..... my in laws were very generous this Christmas, they gave us the installation of our hardwood and slate tile. We have had the hardwood and tile for 2 years and I was really getting tired of looking at the space they were taking up. They foyer and "formal" living room now have beautiful floors however they need some additional decorating. I would really like to paint both rooms and add some accessories. Slowly I will do the work I want to do.
 
 
     Enough rambling for tonight, better go to bed going to see Justin Bieber tomorrow with my beautiful daughters. Wish me luck, I'm going to need it. Also throw up a little pray for me, with the money situation, health situation and job situation. I did have an interview on Thursday so cross your fingers on that one. Enough said for tonight though, tell we meet again.......
