Treated myself to dinner and a haircut

[Marie5656]

For the day after my first "alone" wedding anniversary, treated myself to a haircut and dinner out. Went to Red Lobster, and spent too much, but I enjoyed it.

I do not do good selfies..but here is the haircut. To give you an idea, my hair was just a fraction past my shoulders before the cut. It is so fine and thin, I cannot keep it long.

I'm very pleased you managed to get through your first anniversary without Rick, Marie, and you did the best thing for you, by getting out , going to the salon, and then having a lovely dinner..

You're going to notice a big difference when you wash your hair, it'll be dry again in seconds..

That is right. Simple is good.

Hi Marie, I love Red Lobster! Glad you got out and had a nice dinner. I'll bet the new cut is easy to manage.

Yes, it will be. I never blow dry my hair, it is so fine, it dries quick anyway. I like Red Lobster too. A bit pricey, but it is not like I go every week or anything. I would see me treating myself once or twice a year.

I haven't been to Red Lobster in a few years. Yes, it would be a great treat!

Glad you're being kind to yourself Marie, happy you enjoyed your dinner out and I like your new haircut! It was good for you to do something special for yourself on your first anniversary without Rick......hugs.

I'm glad you are treating yourself well Marie. Haven't been to a Red Lobster in years. Before my husband died, I finally got tired of the hair thing and cut mine so it was actually shorter than his. I have never regretted it. So easy to care for. And I cover my hair with scarves or hats when I go out in public anyway. And think of how much your'll save on shampoo. LOL

I mostly agree with everything you said, short hair is easier to maintain, but then there's the higher expense of paying to keep it short.

Not for me Catlady. I cut my own hair and it's quite easy to do. Fine hair like Marie's is probably harder to do though.

I cut my hair too, haven't paid a hairdresser in at least 20 years. My hair is down to the base of my neck (medium length).

I gave up going to the barber. I have really completely given up caring how I look anyway.
I live alone, single, no friends. Despise my only living relatives, so why bother?
I simply purchase some electric clippers with variable comb attachments, and hack the hair away
myself once in a while. Also quit ironing clothes or worrying about things like whether my socks match.

I love the stunned look on snotty peoples faces when this disheveled dirty old man
demonstrates that he is articulate and intelligent, despite appearances.
