Life is slowly going back to normal here in New Zealand, schools are opening again and after what was called 'summer school holidays' but what looked like winter part II, the sun is finally out and the temperatures are up. Poor kids.
Not mine, they're way too young to sit in a hot and sweaty class room, listening to an adult who's trying to teach them something, that's something that won't start for another 2.5 years.
I've been fighting with my hair lately, it's probably still the leftover pregnancy hormones finally leaving my body, but my hair has been terrible recently. It's naturally got a light curl in it, but after giving birth to 2 kids, it's now going grey for real. Also I've suffered some pretty severe hair loss after both boys were born - due to the hormones, and I've now got a lovely 'halo' of short and spiky hair surrounding my face.
When we were in Holland, visiting my parents last year, I cut off a substantial length of my hair, hoping it would improve the look and feel of it, but it didn't. And then I came across a link on facebook with fantastic make overs for people who could use a laugh http://www.utrend.tv/v/one-second/ and I felt sorry for dumping my hair in the bin. I should have sent it in to have human-hair wigs made out of it!
So I have decided that's what I'll do if I ever get sick of my long hair, I'll donate it for a good cause! Pantene is one of the brands offering just that: http://www.beautifullengths.com.au/ with instructions of how and when to cut it and where to send it.
I might as well start a bucket list of things to do and places to visit in my life time, some might call it a bucket list:
1 - donate my hair
2 - catch up with my bestie in Kenya
3 - walk the milford track
4 - buy my own piece of land and build a house
5 - renovate a campervan
6 - seriously consider surrogacy once my family is complete
7 - be a volunteer for a good cause
8 - skydive
9 - take a hobby class
10 - ???
Ah well, that's it for now, I'll be thinking of more things to put on my list, any suggestions?
