Girls' Day Out

For Christmas, my dad (aka Grumpy) gave all of us girls gift certificates to our favourite hometown salon. It had been about 1o years for me, and it was R's first time at a real salon.

It was lovely day. I love the place, it is all the very best parts of coming from a small town. Like Cheers - where everybody knows your name, and they're always glad you came. I had my hair done there for my wedding and my sister's, for graduation and my high school prom, and even for my mother's funeral (when they refused to charge). Much affection for the owners and staff, and I like my new hair albeit it was not exactly what I planned. Daughter R is not a big fan of my new do and as a pre-teen does not mine words in expressing her view. I will reveal it in a few days.
