How do I love thee....

I was checking my facebook account and ran accross a friend who recently lost her husband to lung cancer. I sent her a "thinking of you" message and then began thinking about my husband and of how much I would miss him if he were gone. It creates a pain in the pit of my stomach and leaves me hurting so much! I have been with the Bookseller for 39 years. We have become so in tune with eachother and downright compatible that we seldom disagree on anything. I love being with him. Rarely does a moment go by that I don't think of him.

The thing is, the Bookseller isn't in the best of health and it is mostly of his own doing. I have continually hinted that he is more and more at risk for a heart attack. However, he won't be able to change his ways until he is ready. Oh, how I hope that day comes soon! I can't imagine my life without him!

Hair Raising

So I have really thin, fine hair and adding color helps give it body. I used to have it done professionally on a regular basis, but it is expensive and I just can't afford to do that anymore. I have been doing it myself for a number of years now and using the same brand and color number. It's been alright. Sometimes alright gets old. So I decided to step out of the box and try a new color and brand. Well, I am not happy! I was going for a deep auburn color and ended up with "old lady purple". I've tolerated it for about 3 weeks, but just could not go any longer with purple hair. Today I bit the bullet and had my hair professionally cut and colored. I asked for copper and ended up red! But I like it! And the best part is, the Bookseller likes it! That's a good thing 'cause I know he won't like the bill. Hmmmm...
