My dear friend Taba (gardeners : visit her site.) asked me to take a pic of my new not-gray haircolor. I colored it Saturday morning with some Ion colors from Sally Beauty Supply- mixing 3 parts of their liquid Color Brilliance golden brown with 1 part darkest brown. I honestly didn’t care what color it turned out to be, as long as it was not-gray. It is definitely not-gray, and I actually dig it. I am sure I’ll be coming back to search my own dang archives to figure out what I used and what it looked like!
So, since she asked, and if I told ANYone else that I know that I took a new pic of myself they’d all be like “ooh lemme see, I wanna see!” here it is, and there you go. (And if you want to see what I looked like when I was a youngin’, click here.)
I did measure and weigh in this morning, my measurements are all the same except for my thighs, which went down 1/2-inch (YAY for vanishing thunder thighs!) and my weight, which is down 1.7lbs from last Monday. Progress, sweet progress. So, to reward myself for such good results, I walked for 30 minutes at 3.5mph at an incline today. Yeowch. LOL
Time to dig back into the design queue - so much to get done this week so I can get back out into the studio next week!

OMG, I thought you were doing a meme in which you post a picture of yourself in college, because you look *so* young! Not that you’re old… at all… but now I need something to compare and contrast.
Yes, now I need to see a picture of you taken while you were in school!
And oh, yeah. The Dell dude was a cutie. I should have taken a picture.

ooooo it looks good!!
Kim - thank you. I’m glad you can’t see the hours of prep that went into the hair and makeup!
Pretty. I wish I was brave enough to mix my own haircolor. I am gun shy now since I bought a hair color from Target and the wrong, wrong, wrong color was in the box. My hair turned some dirty, ashy tone with green ends.
Let me chime in - that’s a GREAT picture! I enjoyed the photo log of you…especially got a chuckle out of the big hair pic. I never did that style, but I know it well since everyone around me did it.

I LOVE reading this kind of stuff:

Keep at it - I’m watching,

WOw!!! Look how long your hair got! That means its been too long since I’ve seen you!
