    it happens again,Dawm platinum dish spray & sopping it up with paper towels, then a clean wet dish towel wipe with towel & use a shop vac if you don't have s mini scrubber, It's amazing how it takes it all up & the shop vac sucks all the moisture out!, works really well on clothes for stains also!

    Hopefully it won't resurface as some stains do. 🤦

    Thanks for the tip!

    Center front. Are you the girl in the green skirt, white blouse? You behind the word (to).

    Ridge Hill! I thought maybe my brother would be in there, different class I guess! Great pic!

    Wow! Big class! I picked you out immediately! 😂

    Are you in the top left next to the teacher? I like the Morris t-shirt

    I see you in the back row, I love the kid in the front row with the cat shirt that says Morris 🤣🤣

    Top left polka dot dress.😊

    Who’s the kid with the morris the cat t-shirt?

    I feel like I’d be cheating if I gave you away since I knew you back then .. a fun post !

    Back row 3rd from the left

    Back row polka dot dress.

    That's a hard one. I'm guessing polka dot

    Front row in middle… white top& green skirt!,!

    Green skirt first row.

    Second row from the bottom third girl from the right striped top

    My guess is third from left top row - I have not looked at comments yet.

    Back row black and white dot dress !

    Last row, next to the male teacher, for sure. I stopped drinking my coffee trying to find you!

    Polka dot top left.

    Girl first row green jumpsuit.

    Two possibilities but I’ll say top row left.

    First row first girl in the white shirt and green skirt.

    Second row from bottom third girl in from right with stripped shirt.

    Front row fourth from left with green skirt 👍

    Second row, third from right with a striped top?

    Front row, green skirt. Or back row second from your teacher

    It’s a good thing to know all the basics in plumbing!

    This is cool

    Fixed my lawn mower after watching a YouTube video. Treated myself witht he money I saved 🤣🤣

    It's on my list!

    The first time I paid a plumber ($60/1984) after my husband died in 1984, then decided to learn how to do a simple fix.

    "JANE" of all trades!

    I love it

    Good for you!

    I fix my stuff too. My toilet was leaking from the main seal where it sits on the bowl. I had to drain, unscrew, remove and replace the gasket inside the tank. Not an easy task. Watched YouTube videos until I had the confidence to do it myself. It doesn't leak anymore. 🙂

    Just fixed that myself last week too!

    Me too! My husband called me "Handy Jan" 🤭👩🏼‍🔧

    Good job !!

    Right there with you girl! Was a single Mom, no family, I learned to help myself and still doing it in my 60s. My hubby just smiles.

    Great job!

    Way to go girl 👏

    Great skill to have

    You go girl!, My husband is a master plumber& I wait years!

    Women can do anything! My mom fixed a washing machine with a bent nail.

    Please do a tutorial on here for us less toilet bowl talented folks.

    2 of our sons are plumbers and I hear the prices. Good for you!

    That’s right. We are the last of the “Can do“, fix it Book, generation.

    Fixing things since forever! 💪

    It's good to be a jack of all trades!👏

    Always good to be self reliant.

    Funny toilet stories: we rented a house that had a toilet that flushed fine, then intermittently would not. The landlord came out and snaked it and brought out a plastic kids bracelet. I worked in the nursing home where a toilet would work, then it wouldn’t. We’d call maintenance and it would flush fine for them. Finally, they investigated far enough to find a denture . It was just the right size to swivel in the pipe, just like the bracelet. The resident really didn’t like her dentures!

    What do you use for your dressing on your salad? Homemade?

    Love cherry tomatoes I just love to pick them off the vine and eat them

    Don't ya love neighbors like that!

    Awesome 👍

    Love cherry tomatoes 🍅. We planted two plants this year to share with neighbors and friends.

    We just finished our Saturday night camping ritual…Double Bacon Cheeseburgers & Fried New Potatoes…I need to get back on track…

    cherry tomatoes from the garden are so much better than the ones from the grocery store

    The salad looks delicious

    Looks delicious!

    What a wonderful gift

    Nice to have a neighbor so kind. Wonderful surprise. ❤️

    Gotta love those generous neighbors!

    Those are the only kind I use in my salad. Your's looks good 🤗

    Yummy a salad in a summer day is delicious

    I will talk with the salon but I am tired of having to do stuff like this. Everything needs to be done twice--at least. Get it right the first time and don't put me, the customer, in this position. I'm happy to pay for your work. I think you should be paid for your work, but get it right and don't waste my time, energy or money. Am I right?

    So u get some boxed hair color and take a portion of it to color roots, no one died.

    Price of fame? I quit coloring when my hair stopped going with my face.

    Can I color it in with sharpie?😁 jk

    Get yourself some spay cover-up.

    Preference by L’Oréal Do it yourself for $9.99

    Retired stylist/instructor here with 40+ years in the industry. I would never let my client leave my salon/school with this result. They knew that it didn't or wasn't going to work out before you left.

    Go gray

    You need to see my lady.

    Looks like they tried to use a straight ash color. Never gets good coverage. You have to add some warmth to it. A combination of gold and brown. I have been doing hair 40 years. I'd go back and tell them to redo it. That reminds me. Never use them spray on root touch ups in between your colors. They might screw things up because they act like a black sharpie basically and then the real color can't penetrate through it.

    Letting hair go gray is so freeing. Lots time of time saved not sitting in salon chair. Retired hairdresser.

    Lori i went natural...white Grey. MY stylist tells me people pay for my color...you just need to.fi d an experienced colorist.

    I agree as a retired hairdresser. Show the hairdresser. L'Oreal has a spray to cover up.

    Hi dr Lori been a hair stylist for 50+ years you have to go a little darker on your roots don’t put it on your ends color will not lift color on your ends put no color

    I do my own. My stylist charges $125 and with in 10 days to 2 weeks my grays are back....make you hair person fix it at no charge!

    Ask a trusted stylist friend who is very KNOWLEDGEABLE about whether you will damage your hair if you do a refix immediately.

    Dr Lori publish name of salon!

    A shampoo dye keeps coming up on my timeline, I can’t remember the name, but you just shampoo it in, maybe try something like that, if you don’t have highlights etc I think it’s a good option.

    I would have to have a talk with them…

    Instead of covering up the light roots, you should have your hair dresser help you with reverse cloring to go to your natural color. Aging with grace is always bedt.

    Join us in the Gray Army!

    Go back and tell ur stylist. She should do.it again for free. Especially if its only been a week

    Go back they will fix it

    Contact your salon and have them fix it. ❤

    And be glad it wasn't 250 like in Nyc. Awful

    I’m buying yarn in Walmart. Girl and her dad trying to choose a crochet hook for a beginner. In the yarn aisle, I taught her to single crochet. Her face lit up when she got it and her Dad was so relieved he nearly hugged me. Pay it forward! #shopping #walmartdeals ... See MoreSee Less

    On my way home, I was thinking how is that I am in that store, in that aisle, with my crochet skills and somewhat overtly outgoing personality at the same time as they need help? Somebody upstairs sent me over there at that moment, I guess.

    Can u teach a 76 year old?

    You are an inspiration to all who come to you.

    This is so cool. ❤️💕

    What a very sweet thing to do!

    Oh such pretty , soft colors! Nice picks

    Very kind and sweet of you to help! You were certainly meant to be there and to show her to crochet!! ❤️

    That was sweet. I need a refresher course, it's been years

    That small thing could make huge changes down the road

    So nice of you. Now you have passed one of your talents on & maybe she will do the same.

    love this Lori!

    That was so nice of you! I had the chicken pox when I was 13 (quite late) and my Mom insisted I learn to crochet. It has stayed with me ever since (now 68)!

    I Love This

    You’re amazing…thank you for taking the time to pour into the younger generation and share such a useful skill.

    Very nice of you !

    How Nice!!

    I just love all you do!! Teaching an almost lost art to the next generation is truly a blessing.

    So nice of you! I bet they didn't know a celebrity was helping them 😀

    Kindness Counts ❣️

    COOL!! My 3 girls learned at Girl Scouts then they taught m3e!!

    You taught more than crochet, Dr Lori. You taught kindness . That little girl will always remember the nice lady who showed her how to do that first stitch- and so will her Dad. 😍

    Beautiful yarn!!🧶 Love those soft pastels!! My granddaughters, both 12, Took off crocheting!! I make basic baby blankets, they do animals, pumpkins, Christmas ornaments, etc.

    Bless you Dr Lori. Your the best

    What a wonderful moment to capture! 😊

    Have you ever checked Dollar Tree for yarn?
