Does She or Doesn't She???


Do you remember those commercials? If I remember correctly, it was about dyeing hair to cover the gray.

I'm not embarrassed to say that I do color my gray.  But that is not what this post is about.............

So, would I really go to work for the IRS?  Hmmmm, what do you think?
