Staging My Recovery

I am definitely better, woo hoo! I don't feel like a million bucks yet, but maybe like $100. Trust me, I was in a deficit before so this is good.

Today I am starting to stage my "comeback". First business to attend... coloring my hair. Seriously, I am now 14 weeks pregnant and 10 plus weeks of unchecked gray growth had led to some serious hair issues. I deeply apologize for those of you that might read this and be against pregnant women using hair dye, or shocked at the fact I color at all. I may be of "advanced maternal age" but I see no reason why I should look it by sporting a full head of gray hair, pregnant or not.

Second goal, shave leg hair. Once again, 8 weeks of leg hair is not a look I want long term. (And no, there are no health risks that prevented shaving, I was just too sick to stand up long enough to shave all those weeks.) This task did not go as well. I got in the shower, washed out my hair dye then started to shave. However my hair is so nasty thick and long that my shaver immediately broke, and it was the last one I had at the house. I did use Super B's electric shaver once I got out and that bush whacked things a little, but there is still some improvement to be made.

So now me and my pretty hair and (semi) shaved legs are about to finish my last goal of the day which is starting to pick up my room. It is obscene in there, but I hope to make some progress in creating paths through the piles of junk.
