What festivities are planned?
Tuesday, a package from SJ. Wednesday, flowers from mom. Today, an e-card from vw, then off to school with cupcakes (26 kids! plus teacher, plus aide, and she wanted one for the vice principal, on whom she has a crush. "He's got an awesome voice.")
After school, get ready for the picnic at the park. Fried chicken, potato salad, pasta salad, corn on the cob, chocolate fudge torte and ice cream cake (it's my FIL's birthday tomorrow, so he gets a "cake" too, and it means I don't have to buy a separate bucket of ice cream). Pinata bashing, play, goodie bags, and present opening.
And then we hope we can get them home, into jammies, and to sleep without a major meltdown.
Happy Birthday, Trudy!!!
Happy Birthday, Kara!!!
Kara is indeed 7 today. She's wearing a beautiful dress today and took cupcakes to school. This evening will be a picnic in the park with extended family. She's got a pinata. It's a burro and she loves it. It's so cute! But she's fully prepared to bash its head in to get the candy inside.
Ha! So cute. I hope Kara has a wonderful birthday picnic.
Hivemind hair question: Is there something I can put over a dye job that will make it redder? Because the new hairdresser refused to believe the notes of former hairdresser about just how red I wanted it, and I ended up with sort of dark brown.
Happy Birthday Trudy and Kara!!!

Looks like I finally slept, but mom didn't. Today is going to be more of the same, though I'm trying to work from home and take care of her. At least there won't be any net-nanny or overt religious oversight.

Go back and tell her to fix it.

I would, but I really don't want to do another harsh chemical process on my hair so soon. I was thinking more of a gentle glaze or a non-permanent hair product.
Suzi, I'm glad you're home. I hope today is less stressful than you fear. Maybe you'll both get a nap.
{{{Suzi}}} Much calm~ma for you and your mom today.
Go back and tell her to fix it with a glaze and an appointment for a real fix.

I would trust Plei's word as gospel on hair-color questions.
