Oh, what a day. Can I say that again? Oh, what a day. My massage was dreamy. Perfecto. Next up: haircolor. I'm now darker and redder, and I think I like it. I didn't like what I had before, so I went with my hairdresser's recommendation. It's still demi-permanent. Yes, I'm a hairdresser who's afraid to take the permanent plunge. Once you do it, it's forever, and so far I just have strands of gray here and there. I got my mom's good genes. Next up...the cosmetic injections. I was nervous. I took Tylenol. I had the numbing cream on for 30 minutes. I can't say it didn't hurt. It did. You know what they say about suffering for beauty. Linda, the PA doing the procedure, was thrilled with my results. So was the rep who watched and gave advice from time to time, and Linda's husband, who's a physician. They were amazed with the difference. My 'crack' is completely gone. A 'crack' on my chin is gone. The folds from my nose to mouth are gone. I'm slightly bruised, and swollen, and I have a headache. I should be using an ice pack right now, and I will in a minute. I just took more Tylenol. And I'm ready for bed. I'll give you an update in a few days. I'm really excited.

Emily's game against their rivals was edge-of-your-seat exciting. It was the best game I've seen. Remember...her JV team never scored. I'm used to watching games played near the opponents goal. Our girls were relentless. They won, 1-0 in double overtime, with a penalty shot. They deserved the win, and it was their second one this week. Go Mustangs! They took the bus back to school, and went to the boy's varsity soccer game. I just got the pick-up call, so, I'm off. And I'm hitting the bed the minute I get back.
