I got my hair cut with someone who specializes in short hair. She suggested coloring it red. Which ...I can't do now but I want to. Well I really want purple but I can't really do that. Maybe I can find something that washes out or something.
Not sure what I think of the style, but it's better than I what I had and she worked with my face shape.
Also think Mom and I need a break from each other, I don't know what tomorrow's schedule is for her but I may ask if I can borrow her car and go exploring and she can have the house to her self
Congratulations Juliana & M! Welcome Alexandra!
Beth, I am so sorry for your loss. My heart is with you and all who love Nathaniel. Peace be on your hearts.
Congratulations Juliana and family.
Happy new life to you all.
Welcome Alexandra!
They do have wash out varieties of hair color. Have fun! Also, agree that some space is likely a good idea for you and mom. Packing, moving, road trips, that is a lot of together time!
We have been super busy here implementing new customer sites. I am very happy to report that #1 son has really stepped up and has been working with us every day. He may even be maturing! He passed on an opportunity to go to Orlando to a Dead concert with friends because "work was too busy right now" and decided it was better to plan to go to another one NYE in CA. His dad was so impressed he suggested we all go, and he was thrilled at the notion of going with his parents. Of course, he would be staying with his friends and not us, but still it is such an encouraging shift.
Hoping to spend a bit more time here as I am taking a FB time off to avoid the crazy. I just don't have the emotional energy to battle over the wrongheadedness.

Awesome! Fingers crossed this is a continued path for him.
Welcome Alexandra!
Yay #1 son! Here's hoping it keeps looking up.
And yes, even though 95% of the people on my flist are on the same page as me, the 5% hurts. And sometimes FB shows me friends commenting on other folks stuff, so can't avoid the grr.
Yay for the number 1 son, Laura! I too hope this is a continued path for him.
My Facebook friends list is about 50-50. It drives me crazy, and I try to be apolitical, because a lot of the crazies are customers of our restaurant. It is not my place to drive away business, even if they are wronger than a wrong thing. I wish I didn't have to worry about that, because it feels like I'm compromising my principles.
I have unfollowed and unfriended an assortment of folks who I had been keeping to try to get a more balanced political view, but the pure hatred over the last couple of months boiled over after Paris and I just couldn't handle it anymore (run on sentence anyone).
I tried for a while blocking the sources that people post links to and that sort of thing, but too much effort. I can battle the family and close friends face to face when they are being hateful, but I don't have the energy to disprove and argue with the amount of horrible stuff I am seeing posted. Like the cousin that wants to lock them all up in camps in the desert since they are used to the desert. I just can't. So yes, I am taking the cowards way out and fleeing. But F2F, it is ON!
My Facebook friends have been pretty squarely in support of the refugees, but most of my more conservative Facebook friends are family, and "You don't turn your back on refugees" is pretty deeply embedded in all of us.
