Bad Hair Day

I'm having one.

A bad hair day.

I'm actually having a bad hair month because I'm trying to grow my short hair long again. Why?? Why not. Well, I'm asking my self 'why' more and more these days as my hair looks considerably worse as the days go by. I'm one of those gals who can wear either short hair, or very long hair, but not really anything in the middle. I'm offically in the "middle" category of hairstyles right now and it looks awful. Then I go and watch "You've Got Mail" (on TBS) yesterday, and Meg Ryan's hair is SO cute and short. Mine actaully used to look very similar to that style about a year ago. I really liked it. The only thing is, I really don't look like Meg Ryan, but I somehow thing having a hairstyle like she did then, will help my chances of looking more like her.

Why am I growing my hair long again? Oh yeah, . . .I figured that this is the last time in my life I can probably wear long hair and not look like I'm trying to look younger than I am . . or something like that. I have good hair, . . or so the gal who cuts my hair tells me. I don't know . . I have an appointment with her on Wednesday and I may need to have her cut it all off again. She'll try to talk me out of it. I know because we've been having the 'short vs. long' conversations for the past year now - everytime I go in. I think I USED to have really good hair, but age really does change your hair texture and so on. Although I'm only 35 (gulp), I don't have the same hair I did when I was 25.

For those who think blogs are only places for self-absorbed people to write about themselves, . . .well, .. this post just confirmed it.

But, for women, hair is a big deal. As I'm sure many of my female readers can relate to. I'll let you know what happens Wednesday.

Quick Update

First of all, THANK YOU, to anyone who still comes by and reads my blog. I can't even believe how infrequently I post, and yet you still read. Since I wrote that last post, it's been 3 weeks, off and on, of a sick almost 3 yr. old. The latest thing was a sinus infection from chronic sinusitus and so he's on the pink medicine - AGAIN. But, thankfully we're back to sleeping through the night and having a young one who acts like a lively almost 3-yr. old. Life kind of revolves around getting him to use his nebulizer, coaxing him to take the nose sprays (there are two), and keeping the humidifier clean. Whoops. . . the humidifier needs to be replaced - my job for tomorrow.

So not exciting, but that's what's going on for now.
