Plum, Purple, and Pink

 

I think I'll lead off with my girl. She is loving daddy's retirement. Getting more exercise has helped calm her down. Brittanys are busy dogs, and she is hyper vigilant about everything. Walking a couple of miles at the break of dawn everyday takes the edge off of her activity level. Hopefully her spay next month will lower her voltage too. I can't even begin to explain how obnoxious she was as a puppy.


This was my project for the day. I got a call for help this morning and was happy to assist. This is the young lady I thrift for (she is wearing a dress I found). She wanted to color her hair and needed someone to apply the dye. We started with dark plum on her roots, purple in the middle (transitioning over blond), and pink on the ends. After the rinse, I did a quick trim. I would've like to spend more time cutting, but she had an appointment to get to. She seems to be happy with the result.




I stopped at Price Rite on the way home because I needed red onions, grape tomatoes, and feta cheese for salad tonight. While I was there, I checked for marked down salmon and scored three trays. There was one package on the top of the pile, but I dug to hopefully find others and discovered two more. No other store has marked down salmon, so I am planning to check here once a week. Now that Tommy no longer works a parking lot away from Walmart, I will go back to shopping more at Price Rite. The prices are better for sure. The tomatoes were 25 cents cheaper (normally 75 cents less), and the cheese is two dollars cheaper -- for the same eight ounces (different brand)! Walmart claims to have the best prices, but that is not always the case. Especially with produce and cheese.


Dinner was pizza made from the sausage and mushroom sauce I made yesterday. The cheese is fresh mozzarella from FlashFood which I had in the freezer. Our salad was romaine, tomato, onion, cucumber and Caesar dressing.

The nice thing about retirement is that I can have a full day, without having to make any plans. The only thing I knew this morning, was that I was going to make pizza for dinner tonight. The rest just happened. Are you serendipitously busy too? Or do you plan every day down to the detail?
