Day One... First ever blog

Ok so today is my first ever blog.  This is mainly for me to write down what I am feeling, how and why and maybe ask a few questions if anyone cares to read and answer.  My life... here is what I am dealing with... a job issue (cant blog too much on that), Marriage broken after 23 years, and together for 27, living in a house with other people..trying to offset the income issues.  And of course the flack I am getting because I went from being a true blond to a super dark brunette...
So this is the interesting scene, I have always been blonde living in a state where that is the 'norm' whether natural or from a bottle.  Now I have allowed my hairdresser basically free reign with my hair since I dont really care as long as its not purple, green, pink or blue.  So I walked out with super dark (almost jet black) hair with a slight red tint... hmm... well it was a shocker for me to look in the mirror and see this new color on my face!  Now I get so many different responses and reactions and I am floored.  REALLY?  So, now I wonder why people are so caught up in the fact I changed my color...(REMEMBER I didnt choose it).  I have: "you are having a midlife crisis", "You just want to look younger", "You are trying to 'fit in'"... soooo...   I am confused...does this mean everyone hates it and doesnt have the heart to say so?  I have had others that do not know me see my license and tell me they like the darker better.   hMMMM... Makes me wonder why someone has to have a REASON to do something other than ..its just hair WHO REALLY CARES?
