I just noticed that Wal-Mart is carrying Nexxus Products now. Whats up with that? I've never seen a salon product go to Wal-Mart shelves. Even though the price is still around the same as in a salon, it just seems odd to me that they would do that. Obviously they are trying to target a larger audience, but with all you hear about seeing salon forumlas on retail store shelves and being fake, plus with the "discount" image Wal-Mart brings.....it just seems like a risky move.
Personally, I'm glad to see it......but I don't understand it froma business sense.....of course....thats why I'm not handling their business...lol
Also, how is Brad? The last time I got to really talk to you, you were missing him like crazy and had just moved into your new house. Hope all is going well for ya'll. I know you are the salon girl so I had to ask about the Nexxus thing....that was a first for me (seeing that).
Well, probably what had happened is the same thing that happens with Bed Head and Redken ending up on Target shelves or in your local pharmacy- someone from the Nexxus company got ahold of some product that was rejected for whatever reason from the factory and sold it to Wal-Mart. There could be so many things wrong with that stuff, I wouldn't even piss with it. It could've been rejected because they found rat crap in it or because it didn't have enough of this ingredient or too much of that ingredient. I haven't heard anything about Nexxus actually being sold in discount stores, so that's what I'm assuming happened.
Brad and I are well. He's been out of Basic for 8 months now and he's been home and it's been nice. Man, I didn't realize how long it'd actually been since I really talked to you!!!
I got a bearded dragon from a lady that I do hair for, while Brad was at Basic. She's pretty cool, her name is Scaramouche, pronounced (Scare-a-moosh). We also bought a guinea pig for my friend Jenny because she suffers from depression and it was a good birthday present, so she keeps him here, since her parents won't let her have him at home. He's a really nice guinea pig and not at all noisy.
Brad just got back from his 2 week camp for Guard a couple weeks ago. I missed him so bad!! That was probably the longest 2 weeks of my life!! Seemed like everything happened that week with Jenny and I really needed him to be here to talk to but he wasn't so I talked to my mom and my friend Andy and I got through it and so did Jenny.
Ummmmm, we sold our cockatiel, Tucker, to a nice lady that had a female and wanted a friend for her and those two would be the only pets in the house, so that was good. We bought a senegal parrot named Key-Wee, to replace Tucker and he was cool until the dogs got ahold of him, then he turned into a little bastard, so we gave him to my parents and they just love him to death and he's the only pet there too so it all worked out for everyone. So we have Mollie, Chopper, Lexie, Scaramouche, and Fuzzy the guinea pig. So that's pretty much all that's been going on here for the last year or so. Nothing much at all. Thanks for asking me how we're doing
WOW It's been awhile since anyone has talked to you Mollie! Last time I talked to you Brad was gone and now he's been home for 8 months!!! Man we need sometime in a chat it seems, all of us. Time to catch up a bit!
Yeah, I know it's been a while. I've also recently decided to find a new home for Lexie, our doberman. We've just recently come upon some financial troubles and we just can't seem to get back up on our feet, so I've decided, since she's my dog, that I'll be the one to make the move. I've contacted Alice at the Doberman Rescue of Nebraska and told her what's going on and she hasn't emailed me back yet. I just hope she won't be mad at me or anything. I'm sure she'll try and give us money or something but that's not what we need right now. We just need to kind of "get rid" of anything we don't need right now and get back on our feet again. We do plan on having a family at some point in the next couple years and if we can't afford to take care of us and our dogs and Moo-She, then how can we afford to add a baby into the mix?? It sucks thinking about it and telling people, but it's just something I have decided needs to be done.
I'm sorry Mollie. Believe me, been there! I don't know if I ever told you, but I remember putting it on TP and talking about it. We fell on really bad financial times as well a few years back, and at the time I had to give up my little Chihuahua Snickers. It was so hard, and I vowed to never get in that situation again, but it's still hard to talk about. I always feel so guilty for it. But I knew it was best for us at the time. We had our two kids to think about. And at the time, my son was in speech therapy and it wasn't covered by insurance. But just keep optimistic, it does get better. Money is annoying sometimes =P

Thanks, Hunter. I did get a reply back from Alice at the doberman rescue and she said she understands and that they're not mad at us at all, which is such a RELIEF!!! She said that they'd take her in and she'd see if she could get a lady in Ft. Dodge, IA (closer to Omaha, NE than we are) to take her to find her a forever home. I think we'll just end up keeping her till she finds her home. I emailed lots of pics for them to look at and added a HUGE, LONG description of her. Then had to send her another email to tell her some more stuff I forgot to tell her in the first email. lol. She emailed back and said she may have found a home already!!! So that's a relief. Right now we're treating her for a bacterial infection in her colon that causes her to have really bad diarrhea, which sucks, let me tell you!! So that's what's happened in the last couple days with Lexie and the doberman rescue.
Well, I just got an email from the doberman rescue. It seems Lexie has a new home already. Apparently it's a young couple that the man was in the air force and the woman is in the air force and they have kind of opposite schedules so someone's home all the time, and they also have another young male dobie, which would be perfect for her, I think. Still trying to let this all settle in, it's all happening so quickly!! I don't know whether to be happy or sad or what.
