After losing 25 lbs. - I wondered if I had gained a pound this morning. <BR/><BR/>The thing you have to do you see with very short haircuts - is - put lots of cream on your neck so it doesn't wattle when you get to my age. And when you lose weight you have to do neck exercises so that it doesn't - pucker. <BR/><BR/>Sigh.<BR/><BR/>Or - you could grow your hair again.<BR/><BR/>Girlfriends. They'll let you know the answer to that. <BR/><BR/>For me? Most of my friends live many miles away or across continents. They can't look in the mirror with me. <BR/><BR/>Sigh again.aimshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12685252628734838159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5175562867822111389.post-80563828287302689752008-11-05T15:08:00.000+00:002008-11-05T15:08:00.000+00:00I was supposed to go to a party a few streets away...I was supposed to go to a party a few streets away to drink champers etc. However, my 15 year old didn't want to be on her own when the results came in.
