DEEP THOUGHTS BY COLETTE: Nicole and I decided we needed a new coif. Yes, we were bored and tired of our old hairdo's. Nicole had seen "the cutest Haircut" on this girl at her work and got all her info and we went tonight. We just told the girl to "do whatever she thinks."
Nicole looks absolutely adorable. Added some layers, etc. She looks really upbeat and stylish. I, on the other hand, realized that you can have the cutest hairdo in the world but dang, if you don't have the cutest face & shape to begin with, no hairdo is going to magically transform you. The hairdresser said, "now you look like a sassy old grandma." I went, ohhhhh cool. . . I guess. Then later she said, "now you don't look like you just have this big hair--is that what you used to think about her Nicole--chuckle, chuckle?" Nicole in all her wisdom chuckled back and said, "oh, I love your new hairdo Mom, it is sooo cute."
Even though everyone says it is so cute, I sort of feel like I am wearing a helmet on my head. I guess I was used to the "big hair." I realize I LIKE BIG HAIR. So, as I sit here pondering the "new do," I'm thinking, "wow, I really looked disgusting before" and "I'll never be able to do it myself!!!" I guess I'll just enjoy this moment as the "sassy old grandma who lost the big hair." (Sorry, no pictures to illustrate--I think you know why)

C’mon sassy! Bring on the pics and let us judge for ourselves. I’m sure your new look is great!
Well you finally read my Blog!!! It's about time!!! No really, thanks for the comment. As for the pictures. . . lets just say I need some major "learning how to fix it days" before I can do that. Here's the deal too. Today at work I'm thinking, wow, wonder if anyone notices my new hairdo. NO ONE SAID A THING! What does that tell you!!! (It's better to say nothing than to say something rude). Oh well, I'll just be a sassy old grandma!
I'd really try to focus more on the word sassy than old grandma. Are you sure she didn't say:
old "Grand" ma. As if to say you were a grand or great individual. I might be reading into this too much but you ought to find out if her or her parents are from the South. They call their mothers "Ma". It's totally normal therefore saying grand ma. Boy, I'm glad we could work that out :)
"SASSY OLD GRANDMA?!!!!!" I'd be so offended!! but these young uns, trying to be nice. you know, i agree, I LIKE big hair on me. I'm used to it and no matter how hard i try it feels too flat when I dont rat and fluff. Hillary always tell me I wear it too puffy but when I dont i feel like...well, just as you describe, like i'm wearing a helmet! I feel like it emphasizes my fat face. I need to get out of my comfort zone and follow your example! i'm sorry though, we need pics for sure.. be brave.
we want pictures, we want pictures!! come on, it can't be that bad...i mean, look at me! lol...i mean, i cut my own hair!!!
Yeah...Sassy old Grandma...that's not really a great compliment. Dang! I wish you'd do a picture, I'd love to see it. Your hair always looks great when I see you.
The wait is over...I have now posted a picture of my Mom on MY BLOG so everyone can see her sassy new haircut!
