Thanks

I appreciate everyone's words of support. I really do. But no matter what sort of pep talking people do, it doesn't change the following:

- Every time I have to answer my work phone, I have to let it ring three or four times so I can clear my throat and blow my nose and try not to sound like I've been crying for an hour.

- I feel like throwing up. All the time.

- I'd rather be just about anywhere but in my office.

- 9 hours is a horribly long time to be somewhere you don't want to be.

- My therapy session isn't until Friday. But I need her now.

- Life is feeling pretty pointless at the moment.

Is there something you can focus on that makes you happy? Or are you swamped? Because when I have felt like that, the best thing for me to do is escape in any way I can. Like... with music, or photos, or what have you. Just a thought. Hang in there! You can do it!

Amy, when the world gave me more than my fair share of absolute CRAP, I focused on Jackson (but I also crawled under the covers when I felt like it). I pray that God will give you peace, light, strength, and focus.

Hair

This has become the age-old question...Why do men hate short hair on women? I've been thinking about this a lot because my current style, an angled bob, requires a bunch of fussing every morning to get it to do anything. My favorite haircut of all time, as far as ease of care, was my pixie cut. I loved that I could wash it, gel it, and be done. No blow drying or flattening or curling. Just gel and go. Very sporty. I thought it looked cute. My husband has another opinion. The longer the better is his motto. Thing is, my hair becomes an unruly, tangled, nappy mop when it gets long. If I had all the time in the world and Jennifer Aniston's budget, I'd be more than happy to grow it long and have others style it every day. In real life, I guess I'd rather go for comfort and convenience. And if you ask me, I think the pixie is dang cute. I suspect heterosexual men aren't hot on short hair, in general, because it's too much like their own hair. No matter how much jewel

Ho, Ho, Ho, How Many Times Can I Use "I'm too busy" as an Excuse?

I haven't had time to write. Work, swim meet volunteering, holiday decorating and shopping. But truthfully, I've not been in much of a mood to write anything anyway. Last night we put up the tree and Santa chachkies, and I drank my first egg nog of the season, so perhaps I'll be in a cheerier mood. Also, I have spent some time writing the annual Schoon holiday newsletter. If you happen to get a copy, treat it like a drinking game. Every time I make you roll your eyes, take a drink. Nog, wassail, Everclear. Whatever gets you through. One sure way to assist with merriment motivation is listening to Christmas carols. I'm not going to get into a debate over what truly constitutes a carol. You can "Jesus is the reason for the season" yourself until you turn blue; I generally lean toward the secular end of the holiday tune spectrum. And if you just gasped at my use of holiday instead of Christmas, go suck on a candy cane. It's my blog and my opinions. Deal.
