I've gone 13 days without one cigarette! Woot Woot! And I'm feeling a little bit of mixed emotions right now... I know I'm doing the best thing I could ever do for my body (aside from losing all that weight I started out to do, but got sidetracked!). And I couldn't be more happy with my success thus far. So today, while at the water park with my wonderful children and ever-patient husband, I started thinking...
And we all know what happens when I start doing that. I woke this morning to some serious 'find myself' thoughts. You know, the kind you have right before a major epiphany. Well, no epiphany graced me with it's presence, however, one hell of a major laugh did... My husband and I bicker about hair cuts. He says I should just let him cut my hair, rather than pay a small price to go to my dear hairdresser who has, for the last 9 years, cut my hair to perfection! So, I go along with it. "OK, baby," I say appeasing, "you can cut my hair -- but only if you shave it." Expecting him to bust out with a laugh to muse me and then pass the idea off, I see him thinking. And at this point, I realize that I've begun cutting my wisdom teeth all over again, because I had just bitten off more than I could chew. Expecting some gushy story about, "nah, honey. You better let {hairdresser} do it, I might mess it up. Three simple words. I dare you.
Well, if there ever was an epiphany, it hit at that moment. "LaVonda dear, do not ever bank on someones assumed reaction to your statements. That assumption could bite you in the ass"... Yeah yeah... I seen the devil on my left shoulder drop kick the angel on my right... This could not be good. So, thinking I'll call his bluff, I said, no I'm serious. And again... Three little words... So am I.
Well, two hours later, and a trip to the dollar store for some much needed bandanna's (cause somethings gotta cover up this melon), I type this blog entry as a message to those wives out there who dare to do the undare-able. Do NOT say you will let your husband cut your hair... EVER! Unless he is a licensed barber who has experience in women's trends. As I sit before this computer, completely enthralled at my ability to win a dare... I still question who really won?!?
Enjoy the pics... They will never happen again in this fashion!
Until tomorrow,
LaVonda
