How to do my hair.

May sound trivial to some but all my life it has been a trial to me.

Finally, I decided on a short bob with bangs. I can cut it myself (have a diagram) it can go behind my ears and in front.

Can smash it under a running cap, shake it and it looks good.

How to "do" it? The inventor of the "hot brush" was a genius. 1 or 2 minutes to fluff it up in the morning....good all day.

Finally at age 76.5 I have my "forever" hairdo.

Oh - one more thing. To offset my typical barrage of negative thoughts I protect myself by saying "I'm a good person" and I am.
Growing up I was always told I was "no good" and would "never amount to anything" and "no man would ever want me."
Wrong.

BTW, the ad on my android drives me nuts so I don't reply using it. I also can't navigate to the general forums section using it either. I click it and there's no general section to navigate to so I only use my computer. It may work if I open in a new tab. Haven't tried it. It doesn't open my browser when I use email to view here, it opens in my email program, gmail.
Thanks!
Somebody used it and asked if I'd let him know if it worked, but I don't know how to reply. Maybe I'll learn that some day.

Just learned this a year ago too!

I just put my car in a lot for storage for a couple of months. Now I'm curious to see if my car has that. It might not. It's a 2010.

If they signed it, you rep them back with yes, or do as you did by saying something.

Didn't know he was in the Sopranos. Never watched it.
My son's family that I talked about, owned a lot of Monmouth County back in the 1700 and 1800's. One of the brothers built a lot of the houses down there Nicholas V. White. His bio is very impressive.

Okay - something I should have learned decades ago but maybe was too cheap to try it - parchment paper. What a game changer! I just bought a roll this year for the first time and for the first time no cakes sticking to the pan! Why did I not learn about this before? Kicking myself because I do a lot of baking.
