Meri had a rough day Friday, even before the really rough one Saturday night... and after talking with a friend, decided to cut her hair as an internal gesture of starting fresh.
And before you get as shocked as I was when she announced the grand event was taking place, it was only 3 inches.
Yeah - a drop in the ocean.
THEN Robb and I were out shopping on Saturday morning and came around a corner in Walmart and who should we run into but Meri and her two cohorts, shopping for hair dye.
WHA???!!
Your hair is already beautiful!!!! Why color it all in??!!!!
Turned out beautiful... Just a smidgen darker than it already was and isn't a solid color like I had dreaded.
Whew!
And this is why I get my gray hairs, which I will never color.
Unless someone guesses my age as 40 years older than I really am.

I am all in favor of fresh starts with something outwardly visible as sign of change. (Hey even a 3 inch change is a change)
Of course this is coming from someone who changes hair colors on a fairly regular basis. I spent my whole life being a blond, then dyed it darker for kicks and now find out I am a redhead at heart, even when I do go back to the blond world.
Myself, I love some hair dye. Fun times!
Yes, leave the grays! I fought it for a few years and then finally asked myself, "Why?" 3 inches is a good bit of a trim. I hope it gave her a fresh perspective. Now I'm off to catch up!
