A "mostly" humorous look at real events - short stories, satire, and the vagaries of life. Join me on the couch. The doctor is wacked, but in.

Oh, sooooooo true....Nothing turns a day sour as much as a bad haircut!!! I hope this isn't stemming from any current circumstances in your life...If so, you have my permission to vent, and to cry on my shoulder!!! ~Janine XO
Ha, I always say there's a week between a good and bad haircut, but in my case it's usually 2 weeks and I get my hair cut every 3 weeks, so I'm always feeling scorned! No, truth be told, my dear neice does my hair for me and it's perfectly good everytime!
Or you could do what I did and buy a wig it's either that or cry everytime you pass a mirror because you realize you dont recognize yourself anymore.I wish we had those places where you can pay to throw plates,cups,and saucers at a wall;)Hugs Darcy
Yes, I also am hoping you don't have experience in your corner writing this, since your hair isn't short, like mine. Good haircuts are worth a lot, aren't they?? At least that's what I say as I shell out exorbitant amounts to the hairdresser.
LOL...so true Robynn...I worked as a hairstylist for 14 years and believe me I've heard all kinds of horror stories about peoples hair!!! I made it a point to listen very carefully when a client was explaining what she/he wanted...in all those years I had one woman cry when I was finished...and that was because she didn't listen to what I suggested and chose something completely different(she went from hair, all one length, past her shoulder to very short and curly in on sitting, nobody would like that drastic of a change)...since that experience if I didn't think something would work with the clients hair, or required more than one cut to achieve the final results, I wouldn't do it, simple as that, and you know...I never had any clients verbalize their unhappiness/dislike again!!!
So true. I've only had one really bad haircut in my life but I remember it like it was yesterday. The hairdresser got totally carried away and cut my hair so it was about only about 3/4" long all around. I had to attend a wedding the next day. I cried everytime I looked at myself!
Dear Robyn, I'd like you to please take me out of the 30 day 'Eat Healthy' challenge. My husband has just started his retirement..and we've eaten out a great deal these past weeks.At times I did well, no desserts but failed many other times. So I guess this just wasn't a good month for me to get 'on board' with your wonderful challenge. ~~~I was reading your blog and surely do hope you are all starting to get better. I wonder if we will get this virus also. Some of our church family have virus' of one sort or another. I know, in the past, I've felt as healthy as a horse and boom...fell ill with a virus. Wishing you happy days ahead, Maggie
Hope the haircut hasn't left you, like Samson, without your literary voice!!!! And hoping also that you are now on the road to recovery...Time to give the old swine a taste of your boot!!!! Love to you,Robynn~ Janine XO

ReplyDeleteHow to do come up with this stuff?
ReplyDeleteHa, I always say there's a week between a good and bad haircut, but in my case it's usually 2 weeks and I get my hair cut every 3 weeks, so I'm always feeling scorned!
ReplyDeleteNo, truth be told, my dear neice does my hair for me and it's perfectly good everytime!
Cheers - Joolz
Is that the reason I'm always so bad tempered?
ReplyDelete(no need to answer, thank you!)
