Oh The Weather Outside Is Frightful...

But it really isn't. Yesterday it was 70 degrees. It is not beginning to look a lot like Christmas. We haven't had a single meaningful snowfall this season. Not one. Yet I keep reading about blizzards and records of accumulation in places that don't usually get much. Where is the white stuff that makes everything so pretty around here?

So, I was thinking about having a white Christmas, regardless of whether or not there is snow on the ground. I am tired of putting color on my hair every 2-3 weeks. Why not wear white? Tis the season, afterall.

Last week, Michael and I discussed the cost of maintaining the red color. I declared I should go white or au natural, to save on time and money. He dared me. He really did. I told him he wouldn't like it. He laughed. I had to do something. If I couldn't get my white roots covered up, by golly, I was going to strip the color out and make good on having white for Christmas.

But then I phoned my hairdresser. She convinced me not to do it. I ended up with an awful color. I'm dreaming of a white Christmas. Again.


Proverbs 16:31
The silver-haired head is a crown of glory, If it is found in the way of righteousness.

But I will ALWAYS think of you with your signature red hair! I have always wanted red hair, and mine just wont go red. (The reddest I have got was when I used medium ash brown.... not one red has ever come out red on me.) I am au naturale myself... I am enjoying the silver!

Grinning at you, since I've gone from dark brown to white (for about six years!) and then to various shades of blonde, and then light brown (no!) and now back to dark brown. People do say I look at least ten years younger, but...I kinda miss the shiney white hair.

I wish I could send you some snow. We have plenty.

Anyway, praying for you this morning, that both you and I get into a better mood :-) and also thank you for praying for QP.
