Hair Love and Date Day!

I am so happy to have had a little hair love this morning. Nothing crazy– just freshening up the highlights. Have you ever noticed that no matter when your hair appointment is you always have a bad hair week leading up to it? I swear that my roots grew out over night! They seemed fine and then all of a sudden they were awful. I’ll never understand it. But, now I have bright and happy hair again. Yippee!

Hair love would have been enough to make for a good day, but it got even better because it was Date Day! Ever since we started dating, my husband and I have tried to do once a week lunch dates. He worked in an office when we first met, so in the beginning I would go meet him. Shortly after we got married, he started working from home. Then I started working all day at a bank, so he got to come and meet me for lunch on Thursdays. I think a lot of ladies in the office were a little jealous, but it did inspire some of their husbands to come around a little more often. This past Fall, I picked up my part-time church gig and decreased my bank hours to part-time as well. It turned out that we didn’t have anywhere to meet each other anymore. At first we thought that we’d still do it and just leave the house together or just eat lunch at home. It didn’t really happen that way. Every now and then we’d eat together, but it was rushed and just not the same. Well, now my husband is in an office again, so today I got to meet him for lunch for the very first time! We just went to the Deli at Fry’s Electronics (not too romantic, but pretty good food and we had some other business there). I’m really looking forward to the resurrection of Date Day. I’ve always loved it, and after not having it for a while, I realize how nice and important it was for us. We don’t know yet what day we will settle on. It will probably take a few times to figure out what works best for our schedules. I’m so excited to have Date Days to look forward to again! - Thanks for a great afternoon, Sweetie. You make me smile! :)
