I'm back. Friday took us into town, and Saturday, well, I was just plain lazy. November seems to be doing that to me. My daughter got her very long hair cut to a very cute style right at her shoulders. Yes, it was her first full length haircut, and it really looks terrific. We donated her hair (15 inches) to Locks for Love. If you don't know who they are, they make wigs with real donated hair for people who lost their hair through an illness. It is a really neat and doable idea. The frustrating thing is not all hair salons do it for you. Why, I can't fathom. It can't possibly be more better to sweep long hair into a trash can when people could really use it. You start by measuring the hair. You need at least 10 inches. Then you put it in a braid or pony tail and cut above the rubber band. You put it in a plastic bag, fill out some paper work, and mail it away. I would think that hair salons could cut the pony tail for you, hand it to you to put in a bag, and you could do the rest. They don't. So, with shaking hands and tears in my eyes, I cut my daughter's ponytail. My daughter and husband weren't bothered at all. I cut it long enough so that a hairdresser wouldn't make my daughter's hair too short fixing it. She loves her new hairdo. Tomorrow she gets to show her friends. Today had me printing things off to take care of our house and scholarship opportunities for my children. Seriously, if your child is in high school, start NOW on those scholarships!!! One of my favorite things that my husband ever bought me was the printer. Well, I'm going to grab a movie and some popcorn. Have a great week.
