~*Saturday Pampering & Shopping*~

Happy Saturday to all....as I type I have color processing in my hair and smell like coconut from the tanning bed :o) I was a hairstylist for 17 years and have to say I so miss getting my hair done in a salon (for free) with the good Paul Mitchell color. My old boyfriend from high school does hair and just recently moved back in town and I'm looking forward to him doing my hair once he gets his salon up and running but for now it's the under $5.00 dollar box of junk...but I'm gray & poor so it has to do!! Thought my hubby would give me grief about seeing him....which is silly as he has a "partner" (please NO judgment there!!) but he seems fine and honestly I wouldn't have cared anyway!!
My friend gave me her tanning package a couple of weeks and and although yes I know it is not healthy I have to admit it feels wonderful to have some color...I tan quickly too as I am of Romanian descent (my grandfather was born in Transylvania...maybe that's why I LOVE Halloween??). Have to say that my fat looks better brown!!
Off to do a little school shopping with my 15 year old son today too. I was at the mall the other night and found a store I had never gone into called the Wet Seal...had some very pretty almost vintage looking things. I don't often buy myself many clothes but boy could I have fun there if I had the cash!! I also went into Victoria's Secret (okay for me Victoria's disappointment ) and all so pretty but wow the prices....you know how many bras you can get at Walmart for the $50 a pop!! LOL  A girl can dream though right??
After this looong week I decided that today would be a let it go day....enough already.
Also hoping to go out with friends for a drink tonight. It's been YEARS since we have been out and I really am not much of a drinker anymore besides an occasional sip or two of wine but I feel like I want to be around a bunch of people and a lot of noise so we have to figure out where to go. I have no idea what bars are "fun" now. When did I get so old??
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend....love each other!!

  1. OH GOOD FOR YOU KRISS...HOW WONDERFUL YOU GET A CHANCE TO GO OUT AND LET YOUR HAIR DOWN....so to speak...cuz at the moment it's probably UP!

    I got your blog comment and I am not bothered about you getting back to me...it's a good thing - it means you have lots of great things going.
    Goodness you sound so much like me...and I have a 'stepbrother' who is a hair dresser, although he's married with 2 sons...he used to do my hair. Hey, when he first started out I was his model for a hair styling/design/cut contest...AND WE/HE TOOK FIRST PLACE. Plus...I'm not much of a drinker either except for a social wine now and then.

    Enjoy your night out girlfriend!

  2. Glad to hear you're treating yourself - hope you have fun tonight getting out...No judgments whatsoever on your old boyfriend - have several friends of that inclination...but I do gotta comment on the tanning...please, please, don't - it feels so, so, good, I know, but as a melanoma survivor (for now), I'm saying it's no good....Hugs ~ Robin

  3. Kriss enjoy yourself!
    I hate paying for haircuts too cause I never get the cut I want except for 2 people thru the years. My hair is naturally curly and I hate it.
    Have a good night.
