Lighter Locks

Us girls are all feeling quite light now. Today was the designated hair cut day. I had mine done late this morning and then took the girls back for their appointments after school. Ahhhh the bliss of less hair. It's been 15-18 months since any of the three of us have had trims so you can only imagine how very long our hair had gotten. Miss Mischief was no longer able to brush all the knots out! She's not happy at the loss of such fine length, but Miss Sunshine and I are ecstatic!

*************

I'm very pleased to say that I finished 'Michal' by Jill Eileen Smith this afternoon ~ with plenty of time to spare. Beautifully written and as always, illuminates a little portion of the Bible that perhaps we otherwise overlook. I can't wait for our discussion tonight, about the book.

Now I just have to go back and write the review for the book I hastily finished on Monday night so I could get 'Michal' read in time!

Sounds like a wonderful day.

I love the feeling of a new hair cut. I always leave it too long and so it is catching and stubbornly knotting before I get it seen to. Just the feeling of pulling a brush through it and not having to be careful is always wonderful.

Kind Regards
Belinda

I love a haircut! I keep my hair on the short side and if I wait much longer than 5 weeks, I get quite shaggy. And now there's the color that must be done--it's vanity, but I'm not quite ready to go all the way gray (which we do young in my family).

I bet everyone feels much lighter and carefree!

oh yes, feels great to be lighter. But I've made peace with going grey one hair at a time. My Mum is almost white...has been very grey since she was younger than I. I'm doing pretty good compared to her.
