orchid,

You're doing great today! I definitely recommend getting your hair highlighted. I started doing it about 10 years ago, and it lifted my spirits then, when they didn't even need to be lifted! The cost where I go is around $100 (but I have short hair). Well worth it!

When I was out and about today, I stopped in a craft store. I am very involved in jewelry making, but have no access to my tools and supplies b/c of the fire in my house, they are packed up and in storage until the house is ready for me to move back in. So, on a whim, I stopped at the craft store, and bought some cheap tools and supplies so now I can make some jewelry in my hotel room. If you have a craft store nearby, I recommend visiting it. Even if you have no interest in any craft or hobby, just walking around the store might give you some inspiration and ideas, and perhaps motivation to try something new. Many stores sell "starter kits" so you can try something new without spending alot of $$$.

One more thing, if you accomplish something today that is not on your list of goals, give yourself a BIG pat on the back. It feels great to do something extra for yourself!
