Have I told you how much I love my family lately? So much so...I can barely contain it. I have the best family ever. This also includes family friends; people who have been tied/connected to and part of my family for as long as I can remember and then some. Love them all just as much.
Today I thank you the universe for them all. Such beautiful, delightful warm and loving people. Imagine being surrounded by 100+ people that are so full of love and happiness? It is the best feeling in the whole world. I wish I could have more of it. I don't want to be greedy though. I realize that I should take it and run with it seeing as I got a heavy dose last night. Loves to all of them! More specifically though, my cousin the groom who is officially a married man now...to a brilliantly fabulous woman who I can officially call family. Loves to you darling!
So, in preparation for last night's festivities, my mom and I went to get our hair done and just for shits and giggles...our make up as well. I really didn't care for the make-up part of it cause I think I do pretty well on my own...but I figured my hair stylist who also does make-up might have more colours to work with AND she said she would give me eye lashes. I was sold!!! LOL My Mom and I were at the salon for 5 hours...it was INSANE. I did get the eyelashes and I did look like a million bucks....so in the end...it was worth it. Now...what you need to know is that my updo was anything but simple. I had about 100 bobby pins in there and 3 small ponytails that had 2 small elastics each. When I finally got home last night...I wanted that shit out and so I spent about 15 minutes picking out pins. When it came to getting the elastics out...I struggled. After a few glasses of white wine, a couple double gin/sodas...this was not an easy task. I decided to whip out the scissors. I thought I was successful in getting them out...and I was. What I didn't realize is that I had cut out a chunk of hair in the process. I mean...I went straight to bed after getting the elastics out. That chunk didn't fall out till a couple hours passed by this morning. I was on the phone chatting with a friend of mine who is also a customer at the bar. She was giving me the low down about last night's episodes that took place in my absence. We were in the midst of a discussion when I see a chunk of black hair on the floor. I nearly shat my pants. I did scream out of some degree of hysteria. Thankfully, I do not have a bald spot and I have plenty of hair to cover up whatever gap there may be. EEEEKKK!
Today is Friday. I don't have to work tonight. YAY!!! I do have to work tomorrow night and Sunday night however. It's cool though. It will be a treat to work a Sat night cause there is a band. Looking forward to it actually.
Happy weekend to all! xo P
