good job miriam...

First, I must apologize for those who subscribe to my blog and receive it through email. I write my post the day before it is delivered. Most of the time this doesn’t matter but today/yesterday it did because Tabatha’s Salon Takeover aired Tuesday night. However if you are still interested in seeing Refuge being taken over by Tabatha, I’m sure Bravo will show it again and again and again like they always do.

I never watch this show so I’m not sure how Tabatha usually treats the salon employees or how they react to her. She seemed pretty fair and mellow last night. Miriam was being a bit of a brat, which was fun to watch and was probably on purpose. She is one of a kind and has led quite the life.

What they left out of the show was that Miriam had just started a beauty school up the street from the salon and that zapped her money. Granted she might not be the best at money management there was a reason she was panicking financially. We had actually discussed it while she was doing my hair not long before they shot the episode. The school is also the reason she wasn’t around the salon much of the time.

It was interesting to watch people I know on “reality” TV because I could definitely tell when they were playing up moments for the camera. A few times I knew the reaction was for camera only and not honest. Obviously Tabatha truly cared about this salon and Miriam and this is why she got so frustrated with Miriam.

Miriam’s a gem and came across as a woman with a good head on her shoulders (after acting like a brat a few times). She would do anything for her clients, employees and salon. One time she did my hair suffering from a rare virus she’d caught after flying a helicopter down to Mexico where she stayed in some hidden away chateau –no joke. The girl is a modern day female Indiana Jones! She even owns a hot air balloon. I wouldn’t be surprised if Tabatha wasn’t a little jealous of her.

OK, onto other things, this morning I woke up to this picture in my phone…




Isn’t love grand? The Captain is out of town working but he still finds ways to tell me he loves me. I’m blessed!
