It's pretty short. I was not expecting it to smell as badly as they did 10 years ago. Pee-uu! Plus I don't know about this new hairstylist I used; I think my hair smelled kind of burnt. But nothing has fallen off, so I guess it was OK.
Getting a perm does kind of make me feel like I'm officially in some old ladies' club, though.

Say, Phillipa - can you give us a 10 of your own??? Come on!

another 10 (maybe 10? 7? 1000? who knows?)

That's a fine list, Adelaide Curtis.
I know how hard it is to finish one once it's started. I actually type in the numbers first so I'm forced to come up with entries, however lame (to me) they might be. I think this is important, though. There is good to be found in every day, and in every thing we do each day. The hard work is in finding those good things. This is the inner work that we do that does as much good as, if not more than, any medication we take.

Thanks for persevering.
ClearSkies
