well it’s amazing what a good haircut can do for your self esteem!!  i’ve been feeling a little erk lately as i’ve had this limp dead hair that’s been really effected by the breast feeding and it’s been over a year since i’ve been to a real hair dresser!!  i don’t call my snips at my fringe and cut off pony tails and then fix ups proper hair dressing.  so with lack of sleep, my sewing scissors and a vogue mag under my arm i headed off to the bathroom to style myself into a frenzy this morning - good idea?  my shaggy bob turned into a shaggy dog and i decided i deserved a ‘proper’ hair cut.  but then, frantic that i’d have to wait until monday with my hair like a pooch - erk no thanks,  i finally got into a lovely hair dresser who uses yummy organic products mmmmmm!  she was funky and gave me a make over!  i’ve gone from diy bathroom mess to 1930’s garconne inspired bob!  thank goodness!  i feel youngish and freeish again - yay!!

my mum came down and hung out with us for the afternoon which was fab.  the only thing ari pointed out was how similar our hairstyles were!  aaaaaagggghh!  they’re no that similar, but kind of-ish  he he he.  .    .  i don’t mind.  it’s great that we’ve moved back to byron for this year to spend with my folkes, i’m having a great time with them.  i’d been in sydney for  8years and only had little visits with them, so we’re all enjoying the reconnecting - going to be hard to move again though ..   .  . .. .

another very close person in my life is my aunty keryn who is brilliant.  she looked after my nanna and pa, and then just nanna for many many years, she’s even become an aged care worker and has just got a new job.  we’ve alway’s been very close (she’s my mums sister), and doesn’t have any of her own kids, so i’m pretty much hers too!  we laugh a lot together, she’s sarcastic and funny.

i’ve included a photo (that’s a few years old and at chrissie) of my little fam on my side, my nanna past away a couple of months ago.
