Man I'm so glad I spoke up...I'm not sure what's gonna happen with me working/SAH/going PT etc so I'm looking to cut costs wherever I can. My hair color/cut costs $275 (not including tip) every 6 weeks. So I made the decision to just go back to my normal root color (or darker) and deal with it for some months until I know what our income situation will be.
Text my hairdresser yesterday and told her what I was thinking and was going to just go with a box color and does she have any tips.
She's super cool, used to work for other salons, went out on her own and in December she bought a salon! So she's holding a class on 9/26 and said, before you do that come be my model (she needs a blonde) and the color/cut/etc will all be free and then we'll talk about options going forward. SCORE!

When H gets home we will take a walk with the kids to the neighborhood park, then dinner and get the kids to bed. Once they are in bed I dunno.
Probably watch Good Eats on demand?

So that co-worker I was talking about earlier this week? Well, she apparently had some big fight with a friend (I am on friend's side based on what I know) and she's currently sitting in the break area that is right next to my desk talking to another friend on the phone about the situation. She's pissed because the friend she got in a fight with called her "an emotional vampire". I'm trying really hard not to crack up at my desk right now.
ETA:
Ok, so it was the friend's therapist that called CW an emotional vampire. She just said "I don't know what she's telling her therapist, but she's clearly not telling her the truth if she thinks I'm an emotional vampire."

"She just wants someone to reaffirm what she thinks about herself, that's why she's going to therapy"
Or you know, it could be because she adopted a child with developmental disabilities a year ago and is having a hard time adjusting to her new life.
I don't even know this friend and I'm #teamfriend 100%

What's everyone doing tonight ? We have date night but reconsidering our standard dinner out. Need to think of some ideas We're on the Cape this weekend with H's coworkers. He and the dudes are playing golf tomorrow while I hang out with their three childless SO's and my two heathens and try not to scare them all off from ever wanting to procreate. I'm driving down with the kids today after naptime so I will be there by myself with them for a while because I don't think everyone else is getting down til like 10/10:30. I'm sure they are all going to want to stay up late into the night and get hammered. I haven't decided yet if I am going to join them or conveniently already be in bed when they all arrive. I'll definitely enjoy tomorrow more, and also be ready for partytime tomorrow night, if I go to bed. Is this giving you any ideas kleigh? Lol

If I understand you guys correctly dashook tgrimes jubilantsquirrel it's that the night should still include alcohol. And I don't disagree. In fact I'm already salivating over either a glass of red wine or a very stiff martini of some type.

I have no idea what we're doing tonight. H said he might be going to the bar with his friend after work so I guess I'll just be staying home and maybe drinking a beer and watching TV.

In fact I'm already salivating over either a glass of red wine or a very stiff martini of some type. Both. I had the best martini last night and it came with blue cheese olives. Mmmm. I only had one and then switched to wine. I could've drank a million of them.

This may be a FFFC but I'm too self concious to bowl and/or play top golf.

FFFC: I used to be in a bowling league. I have my own shoes and ball with my name on it and it all goes in a bag with wheels.
I'm not even a good bowler.

This may be a FFFC but I'm too self concious to bowl and/or play top golf. The first time H and I hung out (kind of our first date but as friends), we went to the golf range. It was my first time and I was so self concious. I kept asking for tips but wouldn't let him watch me. He still laughs about that.

Oh and back to my FFFC, I also had a bowling shirt with my name embroidered on the front and the team name on the back.

You can play games with which targets you're supposed to hit to get points, etc. topgolf.com/us/ I usually just go and watch everyone while I eat & drink.
