Susie-Q&A

• Apr. 29, 2008 - Hair, There, Everywhere

The five younger children and I went out today for "snip snip les cheveux."  (Knew that college French class would stand me in good stead someday.)

We had a good time, but it took two-and-a-half hours, and it was hard on the toddler.  He fell asleep on the way home.  Sound asleep.  Woke up after supper was served and would have none of it.  Had a screaming tantrum.  Was put to bed without eating.  :(  Poor little guy.  Can't make him eat when he's like that.  I gave him some milk and he wouldn't even drink that.

We chose the closest barber shop to our address.  Hubby had been there and said it was a good place to go.  I was very pleased.  The stylist who cut the children's hair was very good with them, even my nervous one.  All the children behaved perfectly (almost).  The barber who cut my hair was positive about large families.  He essentially told me the work was all worthwhile.  He said he knew that for a fact because he didn't have any children.  (Sad!)  They even let me run across the way to the ATM and get cash to pay them after they'd cut our hair, since I forgot to bring that form of payment.  Prices were reasonable.

He cut my hair a little trendier than I wanted.  However, it is an improvement over the shapeless mass I went in with.  It's essentially a layered bob, with one side a bit longer than the other.  I have a picture, though his gel had fallen flat by the time we took it.

Look at Mopsy's hair, though.  Isn't it cute?   It's a little messy in this picture because she'd been lying on the floor.  I thought it was so nice of the lady to give Mopsy a hair-do after the trim, and one appropriate for a little girl.



Here's mine.  Don't be scared, please; it was post-tantrum, post-spit-up, and no-makeup.



No earthquake, don't worry; 11yo took the shot.


From the looks of it, I really need to catch some z's.
On the matter of looks--I can't find my clothes!  I have no idea where my summer clothes are.  Do I even have any?  I can't remember!  I'm serious.  I thought I had t-shirts, at least, I mean some that aren't leftover maternity.

It looks like I may have a good excuse to do some shopping.

Your hair is so cute! The style is very flattering.

I have no idea what I wore to church last spring and summer. I can't remember and I couldn't find anything to wear that didn't look winterish last Sunday. I will have to go shop too, but I'm not looking forward to it...

On Monday and Tuesday, I took care of my in-laws' two kids. That meant adding another 8 yr. old into the homeschooling mix and adding a 4 year old to Logan's "interruptions". I thought my head would explode and that was only two days worth!
