His ideas are great and reading it is a valuable distraction from our own battle with the wretched nits (three girls, all long haired - arghhhh!) At least the baby hasn't caught them yet.

The only thing that got rid of them was dying my hair. Then the third time, I was sick of dying my hair so I shaved it off! When I was a teenager, I caught lice THREE times.

My son brought them home from school 3 times last year (1st grade) - the teacher said some kids get them easily and he was apparently one of those kids. Oh joy. I want him to have special gifts but "attractive to lice" wasn't one I was hoping for! The only ones in his class who had them were him and the girl with very thick long hair who sat next to him. I thought our lice woes were over but a couple of weeks ago we were going to get his hair trimmed (he's trying to let it get kind of long now but the bangs were in his eyes) and the stylist told me she couldn't cut his hair because he had lice. Oddly, this time all we saw were egg sacks far from the scalp - like they'd hatched already. No live lice, no eggs close to the scalp. No idea who he got it from this time. Ross has his own bed now but it is not unusual for him to be in our bed our one of us in his. Our little one never got them any of the times - I guess that thin baby hair has its advantages - but one time I found one live one on me so I had to treat. DH treated as a precautionary measure a couple of times. Sorry to ramble on but I have never really been able to share this with anyone. Maybe I need to find a lice board so I can discuss it in great detail! The book sounds interesting. I just checked it out on Amazon and it looks good but getting I don't want to add to my credit card debt to get it. =p Loving your resolutions. Constant contact is great, except when one of the parties involved gets lice! (I just can't get off that topic.) Done rambling. Julinda OOH LICE!

The memories! I had long, dark, thick hair all during elementary school and had lice twice, and that was in the days when the goop you put on your head a) stank like death and b) had to be left on ALL DAY. It was hideous! I'm itching just thinking about it. Oh, lice. The memories!
