Possible recipe for disaster...?

OK...

We are getting ready for a company drop in. DH's Aunt and Uncle swinging through today. Should be nice to see them, the last time I saw them was at DH's Uncles' benefit. It was an emotional evening....

So this morning, I am trying to catch up a few things around the house.

I also took the dive and decided to color my own hair (something I have NEVER done).

Coloring ones own hair, the day before family pictures, well it could be a recipe for disaster. However, a box of hair coloring for $8.92, as opposed to the $130.00 I would spend on a color and cut...well it just makes sense.

I am going to make a prediction that some stylists are going to have a rough go of it, with the economy as it is. I am also going to take a guess that there will be fewer blonds. Being blond is a lot of maintenance, and money to be sure...

The hilarious thing, I have such fine and thin hair, that I had about 1/2 of the hair color left. I decided to use Feria, deeply brown. I do not like the copper, or bronze tones my hair seems to think it needs to turn.

I will let you know how it turns out...

I wish you all the happiest of Thanksgivings, and as we praise God, and give him glory, let us remember those who are fighting the good fight for us all so we may spend this time in our homes, safe, free to worship as we please with those we love. May they come home safe, and know how grateful we are for their courage.

Oooo, fingers crossed on the do-it-yourself 'do. I have had success with the root touch-up stuff that spreads out my color trips to the salon by a couple months. :)

Be sure to post an after shot! :)
