December 8, 2010 - Half-way to the weekend

Hey Yall!
Today I was told by a co-worker that I looked very alert and well-rested. haha Yet I still drank coffee at lunch due to freezing cold weather we are experiencing lately! 

 - Took a close- up shot of hair-do today:
-Sporting the natural curl again today but had to pull it up into a short pony tail. I added a emalya teal and brownish red emalya feather headband to add texture and style to this messy do!

Tonight while baby-sitting the kids and I were playing with photo booth and one little boy said,  "why are you so dressed up?"  I explained that I was dressed for my regular job, and that the photo was taken this morning. He then said, " You look tired...like you have bed head!"  Clearly my co-worker and this little boy have different views on my personal appearance. haha
