Now Kathy, did you come down anyway after Hurricane Ivan? I did.

I would have been a funeral director and embalmer. Seriously.

Ivan was Sept 2004, and Dennis was July 2005

One of my best friends bought their first ever beach house on old scenic 98, for close to one million. :yikes:

They bought in August of 2004, had not even stayed in it and then in Sept. Ivan hit and took out the entire lower level.

They had it repaired and she and I came down and redecorated in Feb. 05. They spent one week there for Spring Break and then they spent the week of July the 4th and, then here comes Dennis. We were suppose to stay there in August of that year.

Building was condemmed after that and just recently they sold the land.

I never even got to stay there, after all my hard work helping redecorate. :bang:

I have a friend in the business and she has taught me some things about it.

What actually started me thinking about it was, after my mom passed away and I went and did her makeup and hair because she begged me too. You see my mom shaved her eyebrows and then always drew them back on with eye pencil. She always said "Honey, please make sure my eyebrows are on during the viewing". So I did. I figured it was the last thing I could do for. I also figured if I could do it for my mom, I could do it for anyone. I would like to do it for the families left behind. Believe me I know it is not all about hair and makeup, but I still would love to do it.

DD, go to bed!!! You have a long trip ahead of you. Stay safe. :wub:

Nope, we were very lucky.

That is what color I want my hair!!!!

Well it wasn't planned. Seems I have natural warm red tones in my hair and as I have, sssh, gotten older, they seem to want to make themselves known. :rolling:
