Nervous Nellie
There are three things in this world that I want more than anything.......1. My first real house, as in my mortgage
2. My hubs to finish his degree so I can return to school full time
3. A really great haircut
The first two are in progress. I've begun the impossible process of trying to figure out the whole mortgage thing for our first house. We're still trying to decide when we actually want to jump in the water though, sorry everyone, but watching those house prices march down is quite the high for me these days. The hubs is going back to school using his VA money, woohoo, and is on track for his degree.....
Now all that is left is a great haircut. I've had long hair for years. Straight with no real umph to it. Now, this is always a problem but I'm also the most gutless person you'll ever meet.......in most cases........okay, only gutless with the whole hair thing......cause I have no problem speaking out, ask my cubicle co-worker who just this morning I threatened to get up, walk over, snatch that stupid sippy cup looking water bottle away from him and toss it out the office window into the parking lot below. The point was........I was not kidding in the least. I was quite serious that it was either stop the slurping or I was going to kill him and remove the bottle from my planet. See I'm not a shy person and have no problem with gutsy, except when it comes to my appearance.
What the hell is wrong with me? It's hair, not the cure for cancer......it'll grow back. So I sucked it up and made myself an appointment for Thursday, gonna get me a cute chic mom cut.....so Princess will quit gripping that I don't look old enough to be her mom, cause baby, I surely am...being over 30 is not pleasant and has done nothing to improve my disposistion. I'm just a bigger B than I was before 30.
So I would love some suggestions.........I would love some samples of great mom cuts......I would love any opinions except mean ones, then I'll have to come over and toss your water bottle out of the window........

Ohhhh, a good haircut! Yes!! I've had a few good ones and a few wildly horrible ones (the kind where you cry for a few days....). I can't wait to see the pictures!!
We, too, are anticipating a jump into the housing market. We're just not quite ready yet. Here, for what we could afford, we'd have to move so far away from dh's work - the commute would be torture. I'm not into torture these days.
Depends on how much time you actually want to spend on your hair. I love the hair in really short layers and short in the back.... the trick is to avoid the mullet look. You flip it up in the back and roll it under on the top and sides.... at the very bottom on the sides you can flip it up or roll it under.... make sense? I could picture you with that cut. But if you are not that brave.... then I suggest lots of layers with some highlights.... highlights always perk up the doo!
