Saturday

Saturday was awesome. Brian and Nolan had a "Dad & Nolan" day, while I had a very refreshing afternoon to myself. I went first to get my hair cut. I have gotten my hair cut once before since we moved and it was so-so. I went to a different salon and the woman was awesome. I have never been so impressed with someone cutting hair. She gave me a terrific cut, one that's easy to manage and fun to play with, and I even got something I haven't had for 16 years...bangs!!! They aren't too drastic, I had to point them out to Brian...they just sort of go along with my layers. Anyway, after my nice hair cut, I went to the mall, had lunch in a food court by myself and just ate slowly and relaxed. Then I went shopping for an outfit for my 10 year high school reunion. It was like HEAVEN to not rush around and just take my time. I even went to a bookstore to browse some book titles I have been meaning to look into (the new John Grisham book is based on a true story), but found myself in the children's section for a 1/2 hour, missing my little guy. Go ahead, laugh at me, it's okay. I mock myself. Brian and I ended the evening by having a "date" dinner. Meaning we ate a nice meal AFTER Nolan went to bed. We needed some quiet time before the craziness of the Holidays begin officially!!! :)
