On the mend?

I think I fought off some sort of illness this week. I felt pretty crummy for a few days and yesterday afternoon at work, I thought I might have to go home or pass out or both. I couldn't pinpoint what exactly was wrong with me, just that I did not feel right. This is a weird time in my life anyway, so maybe it's just a combination of everything. At any rate, I felt a lot better today, so that was good. The last two nights I have fallen asleep with my laptop on, because I was just that wiped out, which is why I could barely post here Wednesday night and wasn't able to post at all last night. Just too darn tired.

I organized a potluck for us at work today. I do that every few months or so, usually tying it to some sort of holiday or something. It's fun to see what everyone will bring and I get the room all ready for us, as it's usually pretty messy and cluttered. A good time was had by all.

Tonight one of my nieces took photos with her phone of my mom and my dad in their assisted living place and e-mailed them to me. It was so surprising to see them, it made me cry. My dad is 88 years old and still has salt-and-pepper hair on his head and in his mustache. Mom's hair, on the other hand, is mostly white. I'm not sure what that means for me. My two oldest sibs have major salt-and-pepper hair in their 50s but they started on that in their 20s. I have my strands of white, but I'm not sure it will ever get to be as pretty white as my mom's because I'm almost 50 and my hair is still mostly dark.

I cannot imagine ever dyeing my hair. I know people who dye to cover up gray and then they're stuck doing it forever and that just sounds awful. And it usually looks really fakey too. Of course, I am the ultra in lazy so that could color (get it?) my perception a little. It just sounds awful.

Sleep, however, doesn't sound awful. So I think I'll get some.
2 What they think.

I love potluck day at work, too! The next day, "leftover day" is pretty awesome, too. lol

Sorry you were sick, but glad that you're feeling better now :).

I'm determined that when my hair starts to go gray, I'm not going to cover it. I really should start stop coloring now though, I've got five strands of gray already :p
