Hair color...uncolor

So...I was in Virginia in Aug/Sept with Vince as he finished his BOLC training (not so sure what it stand for, but he is done with training now, so that is good news.

Anyways, while there I got the idea that I should color my hair...so I went red...dark auburn red. But, I was being smart, so I go the wash out...just in case.

Well, I did it, and dried my hair...and I had spots of blonde still. Whoops! So, went back to the store and they were out of the color I got, so had to pick a similar color. Anyways...this is what I got:



So, I started thinking that I would take pictures daily to see the color progression...I got a little lazy after awhile...





This is Vince's graduation...we left right after to drive home..in 3 days, ugh...














Well...by this point I was getting sick of red hair and wanted blonde back, so I was washing my hair like crazy doing crazy things to get out the color quicker. I was looking around the store and found a product called "color oops". The reviews were mostly good, the only thing I was concerned about was my hair not being back at "my" blonde... Anyways, this is how it turned out:




It's a lot darker than my blonde, but I'm liking it; it has some deepness for fall...something like that. It is also getting lighter as time is going by, so I'll be back to platinum sooner or later. Oh, and the side-swept bangs...are full bangs now. Good stuff =)

Well, I have officially been called out on my lack of writing (thanks Sherry). Since I am husband-less for 3 weeks and am not working today, I thought I could take some time to do a life update...

So, husband-less, you may ask... My dear love left yesterday for Portland...a 3 week paid trip by work so he can learn some fabulous new things. Sounds fun, right? Ya...for him! He's getting a mini vacation! Although, I must admit, that later today I'm going in for a massage, tomorrow a pedicure, and then in a couple weeks I'm taking a little Boise trip, so I'm mostly good with it...

Ah, but I haven't really written about my wedding, have I? Oct 9, 2010...a little fabulous ceremony and then we're married. It really was so great to finally be married...I think that was the thought that set off some tears...that it really was finally happening. Such a good feeling.





So, we get married and all....next thing we do, buy a little kitty. We finally named her Peeps...we had the hardest time picking out a name, Vinnie came up with the name when he said he was worried about her "peep and pooping" on the carpet...which she doesn't do. She does however sneeze....all the time... She literally blows snot out of her nose at times. One morning Vinnie and I were getting up and he found dried snot on his neck. Gross! But, I had a good laugh...




I got a job at Primary Children's, which I totally love. I don't know if I could go back to working with adults...they're "gross"...if kids spit-up/poop/ect, it's easier not to gag, you know? It's a little tough to disassociate yourself, but I do pretty well with my emotions until I hear or see family around the kiddo...that makes it a little more real.
