My Hippy Hair

I’m sure I’ve mentioned this somewhere before but in my lifetime I’ve probably only had six (if that many) people cut or color or perm my hair. I’m picky that way. It has been long. It has been short; very short. It has been every length in between. It has been curly. It has been frosted. It has been red but never blond.  I travel great distances to have my hair done. That’s just how it works for me. And of course it doesn’t hurt that I get to see my daughter, sil, and three grans in the process. On my last visit I requested a perm. My hair is longer now, much to her chagrin. She loves short hair and I do too sometimes. But her mother is a free spirit and for now is on the long hair train and now I want a perm. No one does perms anymore came the reply. That’s okay because I’m not no one. So she agreed. She is good to me that way.  And can I just say I.Love. Love. Love.It! I call it my Hippy Hair. I’m sure she is not impressed. Okay let’s call it my brave hair. And no I’m not going red!!!

List or No List

I made a wonderful list for Saturday. It looked something like this:
  • Prepare DVD for Primary
  • Clean bathroom
  • Weed
  • Vacuum
  • Do some Landsend shopping; 40% off
  • Blog
By the end of the day it looked like this:
  • Prepare DVD for Primary. I made the DVD after much  trial and error. But it still wouldn't work. So turned to Plan B. I'll just take my laptop; in hinsight that wasn't a great idea either.
  • Clean bathroom.  Changed my mind; I'm good at that!
  • Weed. Mr. Man handled that!
  • Vacuum. Talked myself out of it; I'm good at that too!
  • Landsend shopping 40% off. No purchase.  Couldn't find anything I liked well enough to buy! 
  • Blog. Check
Nice to see I did one thing on the list sucessfully. 

Other things I did that didn't make the list and should have:
  • Stayed in bed until 9:30 reading. It was heaven. Although the protest coming from the other room wasn't fun to listen to.
  • Worked on some MBE work, it was much needed.
  • Played some Words with Friends and lost badly, again still!
  • Watched the movie "The Odd Life of Timothy Green". I cried. That kind of cry that constricts your throat and hurts so bad it makes you cry harder.
  • Ate some ice cream.  Haven't done that in forever!
  • Enjoyed some hot tub time....
The End!

Mosiah 4:28

"And I would that ye should remember, that whosoever among you borroweth of his neighbor should return the thing that he borroweth, according as he doth agree, or else thou shalt commit sin; and perhaps thou shalt cause thy neighbor to commit sin also."

Perhaps........

On My Mind

  • Sometimes if you want something done right YOU just have to do it;
  • Sometimes being nice doesn’t work;
  • Common sense is not all that common any more;
  • Best quote of the day: “the first step to solving any problem is admitting you have one…come to thing of it, it’s the easiest!”  Jase (DD)
  • I prefer to surround myself with people who think like me;
  • I’m happy for longer days;
  • I love the sun but it doesn’t always return the love;
  • Our bed is getting made each morning, it is now a habit …. sort of;
  • A walk off win is the best kind of win;
  • Having another flood at work is very stinks;
  • Receiving an email from one of my grans from her very own email address makes for a perfect day;
  • I love lemons especially these kind (Meyer), I would love to have a tree full of them.

Remember if life gives you lemons make lemonade!
