Wheee! Haircut!

I just got my haircut yesterday. I went in with no idea of what I wanted to do, which is typical for me. I was inspired by one of the posters hanging on the wall in the salon. When she asked what I wanted, I pointed to the poster. It's a little crazy. It's a little different. I like it a lot. My hairdresser is my hero.

Life is too short to keep the same hairdo for 30 years. I want to guarantee that when my kids look back at photos of me, they will cringe. "What were you thinking mom?"

I was being brave. I was trying new things. I was keeping it fresh.

Can you pick me out of these three photos?

I'm going to say, not Pat Benetar and not the Japanese androgen. Nothing better than a new haircut. Although y'all are fabulous.

Unknown said...

You hot mama!!! I admire how you're always changing your hair (and it always looks good!). Since I've grown my hair out, I've been afraid to cut it. That was over 10 years ago. :)

You look like a rock star! How fun!

Heth,
I've been a faithful albeit anonymous follower for some time. I love your wit and approach to life. The new haircut looks great - bravo!
And your list of awesomeness is pretty good too.
also, while I'm here blabbing away, congrats on your marathon, that was true awesomeness.

Love it! I fit under the "same hairdo" category....and my sister is my hairdresser....maybe I should pay her a visit.

I didn't know YOU sang Love is a Battlefield! Someday, you'll have to teach me that rockin' choreography.

I think you could pull off any hairdo in existence. Really. You always look great.

Oh duh!!! I have just had a look at your Links and there it is JourneyMama...right there in the middle ....either that is one huge coincidence or umm maybe thats how I came to find you ? Can I just say well it's all a blur ... (kinda like my life for the past 4 or so years ...KIDS!)

Whoops was a comment prior to this one above. Wont make any sense now but I will try and remember what it was I wrote

Firstly thanks for your blog. I have just spent the last 4 or so days catching up and so have your life in Fast Fwd...several cars, at least 2 babies born and grown up before my eyes, many bdays and Christmases and so on AND a marathon AND all that candy. I am exhausted ...and I have to say not a lot of my housework done.

Pretty much neglected that (and if I was totally honest my husband and kids a little too) while I read and read and read your blog.

Was thinking while I read it that you would love Journey Mama/Fly Fishes Fly as well as the creative lovely inspirational Amanda Soule (SouleMama) and also the gorgeous and talented Catherine Newman who's "Bringing Up Ben and Birdy" blog
I have LOVED reading since my 2 were tiny babies. Sadly she has now finished that and writes as Dalai Mama through Wondertime but has recently shifted (understandably) from writing about her children and more towards food. WELL worth backtracking through all her "old stuff" she also has her own blog separate to Wondertime.

Anyways so I posted something along these lines (or thought I did but something went haywire) THEN realised Journey Mama was in your links already and thought hmmm maybe thats how I found you...hence the 2nd (but actually the 1st) comment from me ...

Anyways

What I wanted to say is thanks for "sharing" your family with me, encouraging me as a mother and woman of God and for the laughs and the tears

Fun! You should totally come to Chicago for a day or two, you would totally fit in with the early-20's hipster crowd. :-)
