So, I just got back from the hair dresser. The hair was getting a little wild and needed to be reined in. Like all good hairdressers, mine immediately asked if I wanted to get color done today as well, you know, to cover up the gray hairs.
I told her that I would like to just keep my silver highlights instead!
I have decided to make peace with the fact that I am getting older, my hair is starting to get gray and coloring it with chemicals (that I react to every time) is no longer the solution.
Who else has silver highlights? Show of hands?

I know the movie world is all abuzz this evening with the 79th Annual Academy Awards show coming up. I went to check out who was nominated for what and realized that I am a very sad case. Of all the movies nominated, whether for its main actor, actress or other stellar quality, I have only seen ONE. That’s right, ONE.
So, my vote for best (animated) picture of the year is Cars. How could you resist those googly eyes, subtle humor, and syrupy sweet story line? Lightning McQueen and ‘Mater have such unique on screen chemistry! I wonder what they’ll wear to the show tonight???

What am I talking about??? The two P’s – Procrastination and Perfection.
These two words are going to be the end of me if I don’t figure out how to tackle them head on day in and day out. Some days I have a handle on them and other days, they rule me.
Procrastination has haunted me since I was a child. I have always figured that I just work best under pressure. The truth is, that I work best when I just get it done! For some reason, that just doesn’t seem to sink in when dealing with the more mundane tasks in life. It is hereditary – of that I am sure. My daughter gets a project at school and immediately gets it done, whereas my son (& I) will leave that thing to the night before.
Perfection is the other one. My attitude (which I know is so wrong) is that it is either perfect or not worth doing. Unfortunately, this way of thinking has affected my perception of housework – why do it – the kids will mess it up shortly. And my attitude towards fitness and weight loss – I don’t have the time to workout that I did when I was single and skinny – so why bother. And these are only two of the many facets of my life that are affected.
If I know these two P’s are so bad for me mentally, why, why, don’t I throw them to the curb? Any ideas? Strategies? Words of encouragement?
PS – I created that cool sticky with Image Chef (HT to Hsien)
