Hair today

I had a great weekend. My son and his girl came down from Rhode Island for an over night so we invited my older son and his wife to come over and we all had dinner together on Friday night. I just love being with the kids and to have them all together. It feels like old times and new times, too. I love the women that my sons have chosen and how well everyone gets along.

On Sunday morning I went along with my husband to do the church run with his mom. Because I was in the car this week, my MIL was all sweetsie to my husband. So that was a good thing. We dropped her off and then decided to go out for brunch and do some shopping at Whole Foods while we had time to kill. It worked out perfectly. Next weekend his brother is coming to take his turn.

I went today to get my first post-chemo haircut! My hair has come back more thick on top than it used to be. I wasn't sure if I even had enough hair to cut, but my kids said that I did. And I sure enough did as the hairdresser took off about an inch in the back where it was all scraggley, and just trimmed the top a little bit. She even used the curling iron even though she didn't get much hair around it.

I am thinking I MIGHT ditch the wig tomorrow and unveil the new do. I am feeling uplifted by a simple haircut, but when you haven't had hair it means so much!

Sounds like a great weekend... especially the brunch & Whole Foods part. Love that.
And thank you for the kind words, Lena. It was a rough week but our weekend was good. Quiet & restful on Saturday. At my sister's for the Superbowl on Sunday. Cozy family time. Enjoy the rest of your week.
