Still looking like an ungroomed Poodle

That's the best way to describe my curly hair in this kind of weather.

I left work and drove to Clinton to get my hair chopped off for a good cause. I went thru the paperwork stuff, and then a girl starts to section my hair off into several ponytails. I told her she could cut it right below my ears (which is as short as I usually go). Another woman starts yelling at her to stop because my hair is not long enough.

So I asked her what is she talking about. She said I needed 8 inches. I only had 7 inches, and apparently I wanted to cut it too long. OK, I like short hair but I don't want to go bald over this. I leave the bald do for my husband to sport. I thought that was short enough but apparently it wasn't.

So I left the place with my hair untouched, and upset. I have been letting my hair grow for a whole year with this purpose in mind. I can't stand my hair when it gets long, specially in the summer. I haven't had my hair this long since High School!!! So I'm getting a haircut Saturday after our run, and the American Cancer Society is getting a check instead of my hair. Bummer.

By the time I got home I had a headache. Twins didn't help matters either, since they were tired too and decided to tell me so by screaming. I still managed to cook dinner, and feed them. I didn't get out to do anything, I was exhausted.

So I'm going to do my Monday routine today, my Tuesday Tomorrow and that should catch me up to Thursday. I usually don't XT on Wed anyway. I know, I should, but I can barely squeeze the running days into my weeks as it is.

oh, and if any of you go to church at Morrison Heights Baptist, kudos to everyone there. They were shuttling people from their parking lot to the haircutting place. Everyone was so nice, and the shuttles were great.
