{Today's 5 Minute Friday word prompt is "reflect."}
Last night, I spent quite a while looking back through photos of me over the last three years. Not because I entirely enjoy seeing myself in photos. I honestly despise a lot of them. My skin is blotchy, my weight see-saws between Hot Mama and "crap, another pair of pants I can't breathe in." And I have made a few (well....more than a few) really heinous fashion faux-pas over the years. I am frequently Ann Hathaway from The Devil Wears Prada before her Stanley Tucci makeover, sans the onion bagel.
But I was looking back through these pictures because I'm cutting my hair off today for the first time in about three years. Three years ago, my darling husband asked me to grow out my hair so he could see what it looked like long. Because then it was really short.
So I did. I kinda wanted to see it, too.
So it grew.
And it grew.
And it grew.
Until now it is longer than my hair has ever been in my life. But you know what I discovered?
Long hair is a lot of work! At least mine is.
