Chocolate Is Healing

The day before the first day of school I colored my hair.  I have decided that the color is to light.  The saving grace is that I don't see my mom every time I look in the mirror, but the downside is I now have old lady hair.  I look at myself and all I can see is old lady hair!  I think I will use a bit darker shade of brown next time.  I am not sure that will help, but I am willing to give it the old college try!  Bottom line is I have old lady hair because I am an old lady!  I am an Old Lady!  Hmm!  I am not sure what I think about that.  These are still kind of new thoughts.  I look around me and my friends at school don't seem old.  Then I look at the friends in sorority and I think they have all aged rather nicely so maybe it isn't so bad.  Hmm!  I think I will agree to just be thrilled I have hair even if it is old lady hair.  I will revisit this later!
I had an absolutely horrible, no good, very bad day yesterday.  It is the closest I have been to wanting to find something else to do.  I worked late because we had an open house last night and I had 2 parents show up.  Can this be an indication of what my class will be like this year?Today was better.  I hope to get the class in order and every one of us will be happier.  I sent notes home to many children today.  We will see how many will comment.  I would like several of the parents to come see how their children act.  I wonder if they would be surprised?
It is old man night tonight.  We had a very tender pork tenderloin, fruit salad, broccoli, and biscuits.  Filling dinner and it was good.  I worry about the heat and Ken's dad, but he said he stayed in today in the cool.
I rode the bike today.  I am glad I got over there and did it.  I know I did something good for myself.  I don't really think I feel physically better.  So, I am headed for brownies and ice cream.  Have I mentioned lately how much I love my husband, Ken?  I think he was hoping to soften my mood if it was anything like yesterdays!  The brownies are calling my name.  I hear them!
