TWIRL FACTOR...

I dyed my hair brown last night right before I went out to meet my friend Jill, for drinks.   It took about an hour since I had already purchased the dye.  My red gets really brassy after a few weeks so I decided to put some golden brown on it.  I like it.  I know this may come as a shock to all of you but my hair is naturally light brown...lol.    The last time I saw my full, natural color was when I was 18.  I did a hair show for Loreal and they put a red gloss on my head and I was hooked.  Over the years of blogging I have had countless compliments on my hair.  I appreciate every single one of them, believe me.  THANK YOU! I AM BLESSED! 

I did several twirls today in this dress, it is the most comfortable dress that I recently purchased at Goodwill.  I posted it yesterday on Thursday's Thrift.  For less than 6 bucks, I am really happy with the fit, comfort and twirl factor.

I am off from work this weekend which makes me really happy since I got into a huge shouting match with my sister yesterday.  I am so upset over this.  We have never had a disagreement, we are close.  I am trying to sort things out in my mind before I approach the situation.  Has this ever happened to anybody?  I need to know.   I have prayed about it and need to let things cool down and wait on God.

I wish you all a wonderful weekend, do you have fun plans?  I have lots of options this weekend  as far as fun things to do.  I was supposed to have my giveaway today but I am going to prepare the post this weekend and post it Monday or Tuesday.  Enjoy, darling readers.   dawn xo

NEW BLOG FEATURE...."same day last year"

Hi darlings, sorry that I have been a little absent but once again I have not been feeling great!  I was tested by my family physician for everything under the sun but all they came up with was Vitamin D deficient.  I have since been taking 2000mg of vit. D daily.  Ok so I am still having  upper body weakness and pain in my joints and muscles so back to the docs to see if we missed something.  Anyway, I started this new blog feature called "same day last year" to fill in if I had nothing to post. Plus my first few hundred posts were without comments which means I was a nobody!!!   It is not exactly the same day as last year but close enough that it will give you a look at my very 1st outfit post on this blog.  They were called Sassy Saturdays.  Corny, I know!!!   But I only posted on Saturdays because I had no time during the week when I was working in Philadelphia.  I love how my hair was layered but I let it grow longer so that I could braid it without pieces falling out of the braid.  I want my layers back...and my photographer Rob!!  He gave up on me shortly after this post.  I have since forgiven him.  I am not bitter in the least...(meanie, jerk, quitter).  Click it
