Small change, small wonders … these are the currency of my endurance and ultimately of my life. Barbara Kingsolver

Well, I did it …

I cut my hair …

I haven’t even trimmed it since last April …

I just wasn’t going to allow just any old Philadelphia hair stylist even touch my hair. I only wanted my Michael from Studio M in Buffalo. After all he has been cutting my hair (only once a year!) for 11 years. And the last time I saw him was last April.

But finally, yesterday I decided. Enough! I need a change. After all recently I became an adult. It is time for a change and Philadelphia is my new home. I pulled my warm winter coat around me, gathered my purse and walked up the Hill to Natural Cuts.

"Ellen," I said, once she got my name right and took the "a" off the end of Tamara, "Okay. Let’s do it!"

And she did.

Update:

Well, my son checked in and as always expresses the honest opinion that I cherish so much. After his exclaiming, "Wow," in an e-mail to me, I asked what he meant by that, to which he replied: "That you look significantly different than i remember." Then I wrote asking if that was a good thing for him, and he answered: "let’s give it some time and see. prospects look good so far."
