A quick little of this, little of that..
I went to my mom's this morning and cut her hair. Short. Shorter than she'd like, but she couldn't complain. We're growing the color out, and in her case, this is the way to go. It was already on the short side and layered. Coloring her hair is just a hassle. Because her arm just hangs, it's really uncomfortable for her to lean over the kitchen sink to rinse the color out. Her arm gets wedged between the cabinet and her body. It's too hard to wash the color out in the shower using one hand. It's too far for my father to drive her to my salon. So, we're going to try this. If we can't accept her new look, which will take at least another short haircut, we'll start the color over again.

We went out to lunch with my nephew and his fiance. It was a lot of fun. My nephew is a real jokester, and like me, he knows my mother like a book. He had us all laughing.

I went to Bed Bath and Beyond and returned my Green Bags for vegetables and fruits, my Brown Bags for bread, and my 'magic lids'. It was a no hassle return. The other day Em went to get a banana from the bag. They were bright yellow with green still on the stems, but complete mush inside. The loaf of bread in the bag has worked really well but the bagels molded. The seal on the magic lids, or whatever they're called. loses suction, so, no seal. I kept the bag that the bread is in, and the banana bag that I had drying. I'll try the fruit bag on something else, but not on bananas.

I took a quick break at Panera's, but stayed for a short time. I guess I wasn't in the mood to linger. From there I used my faithful GPS to get me to the Super Wal-mart. That was a pretty quick trip too. I didn't need much.

I got a call from Emily telling me she was with her dad, on the way to get X-rays of her legs. Last week she was in extreme pain while running and then resting. The doctor thought it was a lack of hydration and potassium. She took the long weekend off, and was fine. She practiced yesterday but didn't complain to me. Today she was in a lot of pain. Her doctor doesn't think it's a stress fracture, and I've been told by clients that an X-ray wouldn't pick it up anyway. I feel really bad for Emily because she really wants to play field hockey and found out yesterday that she made Varsity. We'll see what happens.

I'll be heading to Back to School Night soon. I like to get a visual of the teachers.

It's hot as heck in MD. It must be in the 90's. I think if it's going to be that hot that the pool should be open. There should be a law!

I'm worried about my friends living in the hurricane's path. Please be careful!
