Today I decided I couldn't take the length of my hair anymore and walked myself into Fantastic Sams to get a cut. Now as a rule I never let people at Fantastic Sams or Super Cuts cut my hair because let's face it, those people are not good hair cutters, but I needed a hair cut, I'm unemployed and it's Christmas, so we have no extra money. I thought it would be simple, but I had to open my mouth and mention that I wanted a little layer too. BIG MISTAKE! Never say layers!!!! Needless to say my hair is now pretty much 2 to 3 inches all over my head and I resemble a 50 year old politicians wife. The cut isn't really that bad, it's just not what I wanted. Now instead of crying I laughed. Why, because what else can you do and really it will grow.
When I got home I told Chad I was sorry that my hair looks so horrible and he said it wasn't that bad. Since men in general love long hair this was a big thing from my husband. Of course it was what the boys told me that made all the difference, they think I look like a movie star. Why? No idea, but so nice to hear. I think as a mother you have to roll with so many punches and if you're like me you laugh or clap when something goes wrong to make it less of a big deal, so when it finally happens to you you do the same thing. It has been a great lesson to learn about my self. I may not like my hair and I may buy a couple of hats to hide it for a while, but it will grow and the people who love me still love me, old lady/boy hair cut and all.

You need some cute headbands....go to Forever 21. They are cheap, but festive and feminine.
Sorry about your cut. You are right...it will grow.
