03 Apr silly …aka ‘my week’ [13/52]
What’s silly is the way time is flying lately and I just can’t seem to catch up to myself.
This week, I’ve been busy editing photos (for forever it seems!) from last weekend’s fundraiser. Here’s a little (non-identifying .. heh) peek from over 300 photos …
It was a day of curling, followed by a dinner and dance, all in the name of helping out a local family recovering from horrific tragedy.
I took a LOT of photos :)
In between all of that, I’ve been working on new logos …
and websites …
And earlier in the week, I came home to find some love in the mail from my girl, Lori at Whimsy Studios…
How silly cute is that?! Even the envelope is adorable! THANK YOU LORI!!! :)
As soon as I get my hands on a cute frame, this will have a place of honor by my desk.
And I topped off the end of the week with a visit to my new stylist, telling her to “do what you want” with some sort of new hair color. The dingy dark blonde I was sporting felt so blah and flat to me. I wanted some fun.
What do you think? (kindly ignore the tired, baggy eyes – she couldn’t do anything about that)
There was a time in my life where you’d never in a million years catch me uttering the phrase “do what you want” when it came to my hair. No way. That would be silly ;)
It was quite liberating.
and now? please excuse me whilst I get back to work.
No rest for the wicked, y’know.
*ahem

Posted at 23:11h, 03 AprilFirst I love your new highlights – they really suit you. I have so much fun taking the photos then I get home and look at how many I have and often become overwhelmed. Like with Canada Bloom – oh dear 300 something that day!

Posted at 17:05h, 04 Aprilugh, I know, right?
I usually keep it to the must haves, but there was just so much going on all day and night. I started shooting at around 10am and finished at around 9pm.

Posted at 00:06h, 04 AprilLove the hair!!!!! But BOO on the snow!!!!!
(I’m so bad, I always photoshop my baggy eyes…)
janice

Posted at 08:47h, 04 AprilLove the multi-level hair color and do I detect a hint of red in there that brings out your lovely eyes? In other news, we still have a fair amount of snow on the ground and last year around the same date, we were having a freaky heat wave, 25 Celcius and there was not a spot of snow left! We can’t even take the winter garage down yet as it is stuck in ice and snow!
janice
Posted at 17:06h, 04 AprilTons of red!
More next time, I’m thinking. heheeee!

Posted at 10:25h, 04 AprilWell, i’m so glad you love the print (and envelope!). Thank you for sharing it with everyone. I love your new sassy hair. You are beautiful inside and out!
xo,
Lori
janice
Posted at 10:55h, 04 AprilAbsolutely love it! Thank you!
I had sent you an email and wrote on your FB wall when I received it, but I wasn’t sure if you’d gotten either of those since you usually respond pretty quickly :)
THANKS LORI!!! :)

Posted at 15:30h, 04 AprilI love the highlights and really, really love the cut. I’m ready to tell my stylist ‘do what you want’ with the cut. Sounds like you had a busy week – I’m glad you had time for a little fun (even if it had a purpose!)
janice
Posted at 17:07h, 04 AprilYeah, you have to be ready for it, for sure.
When you get to that point when you think it just could NOT look any worse, that’s when you do it ;)
(and still cross your fingers … LOL)

Posted at 16:42h, 04 AprilMy husband loves curling. He sits for hours when it’s on, especially during the Olympics. Your hair looks great and makes me wish I didn’t cut mine off!
janice
Posted at 17:07h, 04 AprilThanks, girlfriend!

Posted at 17:43h, 04 Aprilhmmm … I don’t know about brave.
Crazy comes to mind, though ;)
