Delay



So, most of you know because of Facebook I did it. I had my hair all cut off! Now, while I like it, part of me thinks I've lost my mind. My long hair looked so good, felt so sexy, and yet. It was just time for a change. It was, it was. I was tired of being sweaty pony tail girl 5 days a week (work look). I just felt old and ugly with my hair like that. Now, not so much.

Wow, I Feel Old This Morning


For some reason there are days when I wake up and just feel old. I ache. My head is all stuffy. I need my glasses to see three feet away from my own face. My motivation level has gone missing...but I also know this; given a good nights sleep, or a long walk, or an hour with my sweetheart those weary feelings disappear.

What's your key to feeling young, vital, and alive? Do share...

p.s. I'm sitting crossed legged on the couch as I write this post. Our silly bird is wandering around on the couch keeping me company. He is now trying to clean my big toenail. Did I mention laughter helps as well???

Will She or Won't She


I'm in the mood to chop off all my hair. Yes, it's longer than I've had it in years. While it makes me feel incredibly sexy, it also makes me feel out of style. In fact, today I wore it up (which I do at work because the restaurant is always too warm) and someone told me I looked grandmotherish. Ha! Glasses, hair up, see what happens??? Even if I am old enough to be one it's funny to hear that I look like one.
So, I have an appointment tomorrow morning with a new hairdresser that is not only close to home but comes highly recommended. Sadly, she does not have time for the full fix (cut, color, etc...) but it will feel so good just to get it cut!
I never used to get so attached to my hair, in fact I used to change it often. But not anymore...guess I'll figure it out tomorrow!!!

Say What You Will


but I kinda like learning all this science, geeky stuff. Yes, 10 weeks is an absolute maddening amount of time to try to do it in, of course. But, really its cool. Our body is an amazing and wonderful thing, that still has much of it left to be discovered ~ or at least the inner workings of it. Did you know that?
I never knew I'd go to school and find my inner geek, but I have and I kind of like her.

Looks Like A Duck...


You know the old saying. If it looks like a duck, acts like a duck, walks like a duck, then it's probably a duck.
I just happened to notice today's date when I looked at my post for the day.I actually laughed aloud. In order to remain polite and respectful, I will just say that today was the day I walked down the aisle to a big, fat duck and married him.
I also divorced him and it was one of the smartest things I've ever done.
I took a huge leap of faith into the arms of someone who truly loves me and never looked back.
And, she is no duck. Lucky me.

Old Shoes


I just love this ink and paper. I have a thing for pictures of old shoes, or well loved shoes as I like to think of them. Kids shoes, work boots, dancing shoes, just love em'. These were done by artist Honor
