I've been wanting to make a few changes here and there and with this fall season upon us and I thought now is the perfect time. My production staff and I are trying to give the ol' blog a bit of a face-lift. You might notice the header is different and the falling leaves in the background is new. I really want to revamp my tabs, I'll be working on that this week. And now that September is over and my crazy month of racing is behind, I want to be better at posting through the week. Who knew running a race a week would make me so tired? : )
With the changing leaves, I thought it would be fun to change the color of my hair too. I've been a bleachy blonde forever and wanted to switch it up a little. I was thinking along the lines of a warm brown with blond highlights. My sister, a certifiied stylist, was thinking more along the lines of mahogany red. Needless to say, this weekend was full of some ups and downs - and a few tears. It's a work in progress. Sorry I'm too vain to post any pictures. Still got it pulled back and wearing a hat to carpool kids to school today. It'll get there. Just hope I don't have to cut it off by the time we're done...
I did go for a beautiful 10 mile canyon run on Saturday. Took it slow and enjoyed the gorgeous leaves. It was such a perfect day and the soft ground was good for my legs that are still healing. And it was the maiden voyage for the Garmin. She performed beautifully and I sat and stared at the charts for an hour when I got home. So fun.
As I begin this first real week of October, with a ton of things going on with the family, I hope that I can think about more than just fixing my hair! Wish me luck...
Good luck in your plans for October.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great run, we all need those, especially when contemplating changes.
ReplyDeleteThe blog looks nice, great changes :). And we want to see pics of the new hair color...I definitely need a hair change. Nice job on the run :).
ReplyDeleteSorry your hair didn't turn out how you wanted, though I am sure it is better than you think! Maybe you should post a pic so we can all help you judge. That is the bloggy way!
ReplyDeleteI really need to see the picture of your hair. AND how about 2 weeks. Come on, I think we should invite Andrea for the weekend. SHe might come.....
ReplyDeleteI'm liking the new look on your blog =) Show us your hair color =)
ReplyDeleteLove the blog makeover--and I'd really like to see your hair. Hope it turns out how you want it!!!
ReplyDeleteHair makes a difference. Hope it gets to where you like it!
ReplyDeletei have no idea what tiff is talking about, but i'm in.
ReplyDeleteplease post your picture. i have known you with darker hair, but i don't think i've ever seen what you're describing. and i need to.
dawn its emily's little sister katie. she told me about your awesome blog.
ReplyDeletethank you for the advice you gave me this weekend. you are a great motivation for me.
Dawn! You changed your hair? I love your hair but I also think Callie is awesome and I bet your new hair is great or will be great. I just got my hair cut/colored last Saturday (remember- during the Dirty Dash). I almost cried - it's shorter than I wanted and not as blond. I get the hair emotions. I want to see a pic of yours.
ReplyDeleteThanks again for the great Saturday run. So fun and easy on the legs!
