Preparations are complete! I now have both pink and purple streaks in my hair and all my swatches knitted for Lucy Neatby's workshops this week. Starting tomorrow, I will be working at her 5 classes held at the Woolie Ewe. If you're coming, say hi to me. I'll be hard to miss.

Before putting in the fluorescent Manic Panic dye, I had to bleach the streaks out to a yellowy blonde, and my husband immediately quipped "You look like Amanda Overmyer." Now that I have the pink in, my threat level has been downgraded to a respectable, "You're too old for this."

(Thursday afternoon as soon as the classes are over, we are leaving to drive to Houston to meet with our home builder and the inspector. Hopefully they don't take one look at me and back out of the deal.)
