      Nora, have you tried any of the chain salons? I go to Cost Cutters and have been amazed at how much less I'm paying. They do cuts for $10 all day Wednesday, that's usually when I go. There is more turn- over than at other salons, but sooner or later that happens in the salon business anyway. I've been happy with the results.

          Caught the last 20 minutes of Thelma and Louise tonight. I had forgotten what a truly great movie it was, especially for women. I was reminded of how powerful I once felt when I had all my friends close by.:upset:

          Then we watched The Big Lebowski...WTF? I had to look it up on Wikipedia to see what I was missing. I know far too many Dudes.

            I love that movie too Juja! I was going to organize a movie night for us girls but never got around to it. I'm still checking on my friend. He is in a very deep depression. His parents are supposed o leave on Monday, but I'm not sure he's ready. At least he stays in contact with me.

            How are you doing by the way?

              Can anyone stay with your friend? Can he go home with his parents? It's frightening to be alone when severely depressed. How about telling him you'll call him everyday at a certain time? That will give him something to hold onto. Hugs to you both.

              I'm doing okay.

                We need a laugh

                Found this on Reddit tonight under what makes you happiest. I haven't laughed this hard in years. (Hope the link works)

                    I am being a total bum today.....watching a movie about Martin Luthur King.....I was friends with his children when I was growing up in Atlanta...Miss Coretta was so beautiful....
                    your depressed friend needs companionship...or hospitilazation??? I am so sorry for what you are going through.
                    I like me new color.....I used Garnier Nutriesse #53...
                    love ya'll.....off to wallow before the week starts again...
                    oh Nora....do I need to come smack Scott in the head and tell him to be nice?
                    I love my family more than alcohol.:h

                      I'm kind of tone deaf but I thought Hugh jackman sounded good too! But Adam lambert and all these people criticized him... Anyway.. Anyone could be a critic right?

                      But Anne Hathaway was amazing w her acting and singing that solo at the same time! I was mesmerized...

                      I tend to do my coloring too...I love using the store bought highlights w the cap pull through.... Need hubby's help though.... Salons usually make my black hair blonde!!!!! Then I have to wear a wig to store and buy a box of coloring to correct at home...

                        Happy Sunday everyone. Slept in until 9:00 then went to work for a couple hours. Got enough done so that I won't be overwhelmed with it when I walk in the door tomorrow morning. I still have been going thru papers and shredding. But, I think I'm going to sit down with my book for a while.

                        Hope that everyone is having a wonderful day. :h

                          Nora,
                          Where do you work? I don't think I've ever picked up on that.

                          Mama,
                          MLK, jr is my hero, and I'm caucasian. I cannot fathom the courage the man had to have had--fire hoses, attack dogs, being jailed, peaceful protest for basic rights--it boggles my mind. Where do people like him come from?

                          Watching football to feel connected. Sorry Atlanta lost, Mama.

                          Hubs and I had a big argument this morning. Things are still tense. I, as usual, caved and apologized, either because I can't take up for myself, was wrong, or I don't know what I want.:upset: Things were much simpler when I was single.

                            Juja - I love MLK too. He was an amazing man. Mama - I can't believe that you were friends with his children. Wow!

                            Juja - I am really sorry that you had a fight with your husband. I seriously am tired of all the crap. Maybe you & I need to move out and get our own place. :H Seriously though, I know what you mean. I usually just take it. I avoid confrontation. I was not raised in a 'yelling' household so it really bothers me when he flips out and starts cussing & yelling. Most of the time, he's just not feeling well and that's what the problem is. But, it is hard to take.

                            I work at an aerospace company. Office manager but I do a little bit of everything. Small, family owned business. I've been there for 35 years. I'm crazy! I should have thought more about my retirement and tried to get into a different job. But, at age 54, it's a little hard to try to move to a different job now. After working at one place for so long, that's a red flag for an employer. Oh well - that's life. Anyway, I have keys to the business and am able to go in when I want on the weekend. I get a lot more done when I'm there alone.

                              I always wondered as much as we women complain about our husbands why we don't just all form a huge community without men! Maybe once awhile we may need someone to kill a mouse for us but that's about it! *sigh* sad to think my son will turn out to be one of those husbands one day!!!
