Today is hair day
a trip downtown to get ripped off on parking
only to sit for 2 hours getting that natural look
of highlights and lowlights
and just the right amount of hair snipped away
I really enjoy going there...it lifts this old woman up
looking at all the young women so fashionably dressed
OH and the shoes they wear...my my
Lately I have been busy with family things
and book club and writing
but truthfully
I have been busy keeping busy to keep my sadness at bay
the clock ticks onward
every second of life
leading to heartbreak
to our family
I think I'll tip big today
smiles...enjoy your bit of pampering...
ReplyDeleteAw Suz, still thinking of you often... keep hanging in there and keep the faith - and enjoy your day of being pampered :)
ReplyDeleteYes, the things we do to make life a bit happier... I had a spa pedicure yesterday. It's a gift I give myself once in a while. We deserve it.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could wear those "beautiful" shoes again. I had so many. But, my feet are "sensible" now and need old lady support. It comes to all of us this "old age". It will come to those the young and "fashionable dressed" too.
BUT... We can still get haircuts and pedicures.
I hope you and your family are OK. Those last line sound like impending doom.I wish you well.
Take care.
Some days, just a haircut will color the day with jpu. We must grab each smile and joy where we can get them.
ReplyDeleteSimple things can bring such great pleasure Suz.
ReplyDeleteSending love and hugs, Suz. Enjoy your 'hair day'. :)

Thinking of you and your family Suz, often. Praying for your strength and knowing that the love you all have for each other will help get you through.
ReplyDeleteA well deserved pamper, nothing like a cut and colour to lift the spirits.
ReplyDeleteI love days of pampering, and I think there should be more of them, or at least a new purse every now and then! :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Suz, it's a pleasure to meet you. I know what you mean about hair day. It's troublesome sometimes. I have a heck of a time finding a good stylist. I am your newest follower. I hope you come for a visit and follow along.
