Hi everyone!

I was on vacation last week do I did not spend much time on the computer - so here I amnot to catch up. Last week my uncle (mom's brother - the only one left living in the family) and 2 cousins were here from Ohio. We did alot of shopping - went to Newport and toured a mansion - went out to eat alot - it was a great week. Of course in between I brought DD to work - picked up DS girlfriend so she could come with us and got absolutely nothing done in the house - in fact if I don't vac today the dog fur from her shedding may turn into tumbleweeds - lol.

As for myself - I did treat my self to some things while shopping this week - some Clinique cosmetcs and...yesterday.....I colored my hair. Natural color is blonde but now is just a dull mousey - graying color that I hate - I am now a very light strawberry blonde - DH loves it and I have to tell you that I feel 10 yrs younger - not a bad thing!! Oh - I also bought an exercise video this week "Walk Away the Pounds" DSIL uses it and loves it so I thought I 'd give it a try - my consious effort to not let the age thing get me down.

I hope you all have a good day,

Paula

P.S. when are the chats?? I'd love to join you sometime.

Your hair sounds great, Paula. My dd is going through the same thing right now...trying to decide what to do with her hair which has gone from blonde to a mousey blondish brown. Good luck with the exercise video. I would like to start walking...just have to find a time in my schedule that I can use for walking enough to make a habit out of it.

LOL on the dog hair tumbleweeds. Boy, I can relate to that!

Hi Paula! Sounds like a good time with your Ohio relatives. Where are they from? I live near Dayton, Ohio. Good luck with the video! Sounds like a plan. Glad your hair color came out so pretty!!

Hugs, Pam

Paula, nothing like a little bit of color and pampering to change our whole outlook, is there? Good for you! Sounds like a good video; good luck with that! Let us know how it works.

hi Paula! Sounds like you had a pretty good weekend! I know how it is when you have company though and the house looks like you have done nothing for days, but it is good to let it go for a while and just enjoy your time with your company!

I bet you feel great with the new touch up on your color... I keep threatening to get mine done, but not yet have I gone through with it! I used to color and loved it, but now I want to color to cover up the grey that is popping up all over the place.

I have not yet read the other posts to the chat times but we chat at 12:00 noon EST for day time chats and 9:00pm EST Tue, Fri and Sat evenings. Hope to see you there some time.

Have a great day!
