I've been accused of being "nit-picky" about details in the past. Fortunately this trait has come in handy while having to actually pick nits from my childrens hair over the past week. What a miserable, tedious task! Add to it ridiculous amounts of laundry that have to be washed daily in hot water (all bedding, individual coverings for our furniture, any towels used that day), and I'm seriously falling behind in doing other forms of housework. I'm spending nearly 5 hours a day either picking nits or doing laundry related to lice. Hopefully this aggressiveness and fastidiousness will pay off and noone else will get lice in the house.
On an up note, I'm going to see Coldplay tonight! With my hair pulled back in a ponytail because I'm afraid to style it in any way that might get it close to my daughter...

I wanted to tell you that I had a dream last night that I saw lice in Ally's hair. Oh.. wait... ok now my head is feeling itchy. Coincidence, I'm sure, but....
Hey, Anne, maybe this could be a paying job for people with OCD - not you, of course, or me, but some people out there....
