Sugar High: (Sassy's pick) This song reminds me of my recent discovery (not re-discovery) of my love for my husband. We were both just so happy and excited about this newness that this song just really captured our excitement for each other. This may seem somewhat confusing since i say recent yet I've been married for over 10 years, but I'll be writing about this for Valentines Day. Since you've probably never heard it or of it I'm going to post a Youtube video since Pandora doesn't have it :(
So there you have it! We're not going to tag anyone specifically so anyone who reads this can play along, but be sure to comment here so we can come read yours!
As much as I say I don't shave for the extra insulation from the Northern Michigan cold, I really don't like hairy legs that much. I'm just lazy. And it actually causes a problem like on days when I don't have clean pants yet can't wear a skrit becasue my braidable leg hair will poke through...or when Sister HB's male friend tried to gallantly help me get my boot on while I was holding my sleeping baby. I suddenly became shrew-ish, insisting I had it covered because I was afraid he'd see my leg hair and throw up in his mouth. They were that bad....see below.
NO that is NOT a man's leg, it is my very hairy knobby knee with that lumpy fleshness above it (or below it because the picture is kind of upside down)
I got three razors just in case. My favorite of the disposables is the middle one but the other two are there for the first go round. Like using scissors before you use the clippers.
To shave, which I am by no means an expert at because I only tend to do it a few months out of the year, I like to use soap, don't know why- just always have. My soap is Dove Cucumber something and I love the smell of it. You should check it out!
I decided to try to go with my fav razor, you can see it's cutting a nice little patch through the hair, but will it last for both legs?
EW! Sorry to subject you with all this hairiness!
Finally after about a good 15 minutes I am clean shaven. Lets check out and see if I still hate my knee.
Aw, Shucks...still there. Oh well...
My Jimmy Eats World still loves them and after 10 years had no clue about what I was talking about when I was describing what I don't like my knees.
It's time for your Lent Family Devotional,
brought to you by Sister H.B.
GOD GIVES YOU CONFIDENCE!

I'm laughing so hard, now. Not at the Lenten devotional, at the hairy knees. Mine are really hairy - I need to shave. I have that same dove soap in my shower. It is creamy and soothing and smells good. Maybe I will shave today and then go play in the hottub with my man.
I'm kind of a hair removal freak. I don't know when it started, but I'm fairly compulsive about shaving.
My body part would be my nose. It's got a slight bump in it from being broken THREE TIMES (to say that I'm klutzy would be the understatement of the year), and it's a bit bigger than I'd like. But it's pretty good at smelling baking bread, my niece's baby smell, fresh cut grass, and my husband, so I suppose I like it well enough!
Have a great weekend!
The knobby boy knees come from grandma Cecil. I remember as a child noticing her unattractive knees, and guess what? I've got them now! Sounds like you do too. Love the Sugar High song. I first heard it on the movie, Empire Records. Thanks for the shaving lesson.
haha! Love the pics. I like the middle razor the best also. And I really like Will Ferrell's version of Dust in the Wind from Old School. :)
Not that there's anything wrong with being knocked up at your own wedding.
Dude. Am I the only one trying not to puke at the hairy pictures?
Ha ha Sassy. I totally posted about you today.
I really don't mind the hairy legs, but wow those f**ckers were hairy. The pics really don't show just how long and hairy you really were! I'm glad that Spring is less than two months away ;)
And thanks for the sugar high, my love
I forgot about Sugar High! Thanks for reminding me. Love the rest of your pics too. :0) THanks for playing!
And holy hairy legs! :0) I let mine get fairly bad in winter too. Every Sunday when it's time to put on a dress I cringe that I must now put on nylons to cover up the hair. Sigh. Why is it that women have to and men don't?
THanks for the devotional HB! Good thought for the day!
I need to put on my depends before I read the blogs!! love the hairy legs!!! You would make a good yooper woman. My biggest fear is a car accident or ilness during the winter months. THat actually happened to me a few years ago. I was hospitalized in march for 2 weeks. I was so upset about my legs that a friend actually came in and helped me shave. And one gave me a pedicure!
OK, that could be more info that I needed but whatever....My worst part is my nose, as it appears around the corner long before I do. But, I was bitten by a bird dog around age 11 and had 42 stiches, but that did'nt do it all as it was already long. Let's just say that because God knows all the hair on my head, he had less and less to count these days.
Okay, this is way too funny...
