Hairy day!

Rough nights sleep last night as am unwell with a heavy chesty cold. So when I dragged myself out of bed on my day off to get boys ready for school I just threw on some old clothes and tied my hair up without even brushing it!

After dropping the boys off, on the spur of the moment I decided to pop into the hairdressers (somewhere I haven't been for many many months!) to make an appointment! I decided that I should make an effort for the presentation on Saturday. I was quite taken aback when she said "how about now?!".

So there I was in the hairdressers looking the worse I could possibly be - ill, unbrushed hair and scruffy clothes about to have a haircut! Had to quickly decide what I wanted to have done! Amazingly I was brave (or mad - you choose) enough to go for a radical hair change - i.e. chop my long hair off! I was so nervous all the way through but am so delighted with the result! There is probably 6 inches gone! So now I have a kind of bob!

While I was in the middle of the haircut I found out that Matt Baker was on his rickshaw in my town probably 100 metres away but I was stuck!!!! So when I was free I found out where he was - a couple of miles away so I drove and caught him up and overtook him! Got a video and cheered him on too! The poor man looked absolutely shattered.

Met my hubby for lunch after I'd got changed into decent clothes to go with my new hairdo and he didn't recognise me! Only realised when he saw my shoes as he walked past! He likes the hair too! Retail therapy this afternoon distracted me from how ill I was! Went to see my parents with boys after school to see my dad before he goes off on his scuba holiday in Egypt tomorrow! Went out for tea cos I wasn't in a fit state to cook! Bed early cos I have to go to work tomorrow! Will blip a photo of the children in need T-shirts the boys made tonight to wear to school tomorrow.
