Had a GREAT day

Some of you know or found out from FB that today is my birthday...well, I spent the day doing ME things...met up with  a very good friend and this is how the rest of the day went:

One) I got a haircut...my hair had really started to thin, esp on the left side near my temple. The lady who cut it, made it look thicker as well as parting it a bit differently to hide the worst of it.

Two) Went to lunch, then stopped and got some packets of drink mix for my water that I forgot yesterday.

Three) Went to the local outdoor mall and she returned some things, then we hit a store there and from there went shopping in thrift stores.

I came home after spending just under $10 with some jeans, capri's, two pair of shorts (one was denim, one was a pair of gym shorts), a summer weight nightgown and a top to wear with some other gym shorts I already had to sleep in.

Below is my new haircut compared to how it looked:
Before and hiding the damage pretty well:
