Sassy


I never post pictures of myself, but this new haircut warrants one. Of course you can’t really see the layering and you can’t see the back, which is wonderful and so, so cute, but you get a little taste.

But here is the important part about this haircut. I walked to the appointment. This morning I was miserable and yesterday I was huffing and puffing since I hadn’t walked that far in years, but I walked there.

I’m donating my long hair and that feels good. But what really feels good is knowing that pain can be fleeting and when it is not, I can survive it without falling into a “pit of despair” (to quote Anne Shirley).

Oprah always talks about what she knows for sure. Well, here is what I know for sure:

I am a tough girl. And I love my new haircut – it is as sassy as I feel (even if you don’t get that from just a picture).
