Oh, hey!
I'm getting my hair colored today. Brown. You know, yummy rich brown. Not mousy. Obviously.
Kind of nervous, but mostly excited. I've never been anything but blonde. Ever.

The Boy is smart enough to just support whatever I do with my hair, and always tells me that however *I* like it is how *he* likes it. (Though he prefers long hair on women. But I've told him that, sooner or later, I'll end up growing my hair longer than it is now, though never *long*, per se. And then, I'll inevitably cut it short again. And grow it out again. Ad infinitum.)
He seemed a bit trepidatious about me going brunette, but soon got on board.
My dad, on the other hand, thinks it's a crazy idea and wants to know why I would ever change my "beautiful golden hair." His parting words to me were, "Well, it always grows out again."
I wasn't aware that it was HIS hair. Jeez.

Prediction: Brown is going to make Teppy's beautiful eyes pop, and make her skin look luminous.
::waits for pictures::
Hivemind: Pet insurance or no pet insurance? The amount of $$ we've laid out to get the giardia diagnosed and treated would have covered the cost for a couple of years, so we're considering it.

It seemed winter-appropriate.

Pet insurance or no pet insurance?
For a puppy, I'd say get it *if* it seems about right, cost-wise. What if you move - are you still covered?
I'm excited to see Teppy's brown hair!

So, Joe wants to buy me some jewelry for Valentine's Day. I've been thinking that I want some sort of mother-child necklace, but I'm not sure what I want. Not anything too sweet/cutesy, but something that represents Ellie and Frisco in some way. Amy suggestions?
Also, relatedly, if vwbug is around, I really liked that ladybug necklace you had but can't remember that name you told me. Any chance they sell online?

The cost for our beagle-mix puppy is about $230/year for accident/illness coverage, not routine care, with a $200 deductible. They'll accept bills from any licensed vet in the US.
One of our Giardia visits was $500+.
I hoping, of course, that the hivemind has used a company and has a hate/love opinion.
eta: Stephanie, when we got a necklace for my mother with all of her grandchildren represented by their birthstones we went to a jeweler who helped us design something she'd actually wear.
Since I don't have any children, and I still paid my 1/3, I felt free to tell my sisters they were dumb for having children that needed to be represented by diamonds, emeralds and rubies.
