8 Inches

Da Goddess @ 15:06

Visualize eight inches. Guys, grab a tape measure. Eight inches do not resemble anything near what you think it will. (Sorry, but you’re the ones who equate an inch to a mile on a map.)

Now, 8 inches.

That’s a lot on a human being.

That’s what I had removed from the length of my hair. And after the cut, my hair is still below my shoulders.

The best part of cutting off that much hair? I can now walk from the back of the house to the front and it doesn’t end up more tangled than a bird’s nest. It’s freeing. To be able to wear my hair down is totally amazing. Normally, I’d have to braid it or roll it into a bun just to keep it from knotting up.

The only time I have to put my hair up now is before bed because bedhead and I don’t go well together. I’m a restless sleeper.

And there you have the excitement that is my life.

This is SIX HOURS of music. It’s the Warren Haynes Christmas Jam and it’s definitely worth the time.

Oh What a Night!

Da Goddess @ 00:49

Took King Arthur to see Boyd as part of his Christmas present. What a fantastic show!

If you like music that makes you want to get up and dance, you’ll love Johnny. He’s a crooner and he knows how to get the toes a-tappin’.

The royal one, even though he was in pain, got up and danced a few. He also saw many old friends he hadn’t seen in years. Made the night even sweeter.

Also making the night a success was the opening band, Chaffin & Barthe.

Awesomeness all the way around.

P.S. Hawaii Five-0 tonight kicked all kinds of butt and made me cry. If you didn’t see it, go watch on CBS online.

Oh, Muse!

Da Goddess @ 16:03

Why is it that I can write an entire short story in my head while I’m in the shower, but the minute I sit down at the computer, I got NOTHING?!

My muse is a cruel, cruel wench.

Doesn’t Anyone Remember the Story About the Boy Who Cried “Wolf”?

You can’t fake a crime and expect to get away with it.

Or you can.

It’s Howdy Doody Time

Da Goddess @ 05:54

Howdy Doody

I’m absolutely flummoxed as to why I find puppets and dummies and such so fascinating when I’m at the flea market, but don’t much like them any other time. Maybe because I know I’ll be walking away???

Bear with me as I share a few of these this week.

Real Woman and Proud of It!

Da Goddess @ 02:50

You can have opinion. You can be outspoken about it. But you can’t tell me that I should feel bad about myself just because we don’t agree.

I will never again weigh what I did in high school. I will likely never again weigh what I did on my wedding day. I’m okay with that. I’d love to be that thin again, but I refuse to spend my every waking moment pursuing a thinner body instead of living my life.

Instead of working out all the time and counting every calorie that goes in my mouth, I eat healthier foods, do my best to stay active when my body allows it. I do this for myself and my loved ones, but NOT because someone who thinks “thin is in” thinks I should.

Oh, and even when I got married, I weighed 145 lbs and was considered overweight by the doctor’s body mass index chart.
