On this date 40 years ago I sold a Kansas house in the morning, finalized a divorce in the afternoon, loaded a rental truck to the gills and headed home to The Folks in Tennessee.
The following Monday I started my new job as specifications typist at an architectural firm and a bright young draftsman/office boy stopped by my cubicle to invite me to the office canoe outing the next weekend.
Sadly, I was not able to go on the outing but one month later that office boy and I had our first "real" date (lunches don't count). I never went out with anyone else and after 3 years of "consideration" we decided to make it official.
During the round trip to the longarm quilter near Nashville on Friday I got my hair trimmed (must have been inspired by Jocelyn/Canadian Needle Nana) --
My husband commented that he liked the cut because it reminds him of how I looked when he first met me. (He forgets I had bangs then.) He has NEVER commented on my hair (without my asking) in 40 years!
Cute do!! So different and sleek that Mr. Lakeside took notice? Good for you!!
