Dead hair

Who can say they have dyed a dead lady's hair? Oh, I can!
Today has been a very interesting day. It was supposed to be my relaxing day after a very busy couple days. The only thing on my calendar was a facial (which was wonderful), then immediately after I was to watch Bo for an hour. Well, I sent Blythe to get a facial after mine and I took Allie (along with Bo, Liam & Aubrey) to her photo shoot for a friend in our ward. While there, they decided they wanted Aubrey to model too. It was really cute. I had to leave Allie & Aubrey there while I took Liam and Bo to pick Dallin up for school. As soon as I got back to the shoot my phone rang. It was my sister's boyfriend Curtis, who's a mortician. He's in a bind and needs me to dye one of his "clients" hair before they dress her tomorrow. Sooooo, I put my kids down for naps & left them with Blythe. At the beauty supply store the 2 workers were just laughing non-stop when I told them where I was headed & how nervous I was. I left there with them telling me to watch "Weekend at Bernies" afterwards and I should feel better. right.
Nervously I drove the 30 min there with Jan Lutz aka The Apron Lady, (the friend in our ward that the girls modeled for who was so so nice and offered to go with me as moral support) and she really eased my mind. We went in, got the job done & it really wasn't that bad. It was just the initial shock of "I'm touching a dead person and there's another body in the casket a few feet away!" But Jan just kept talking about how beautiful and peaceful she looked and it really helped. By the end I really didn't have a problem with it, but was still a little freaked out about the casket because I couldn't see in it. I will say that I would do it again if asked, but it's not the type of job I would seek out.
Anyway, after that I made dinner, took the kids home, put them in bed & did 1 last haircut. Aubrey didn't go to bed easily. She got up a number of times. I really need to study for my test on Tuesday, but don't think that's gonna happen. I'm exhausted!!!! So much for my relaxing day.
