As you all know I have had quite the hair ordeal this week in which the hairdresser turned it grey.  Well, it seems like it is fixed now but I still don’t really like it 100%.  I really can’t afford to colour it again and I really don’t want to fry it either. 

Today I took my kids to a Parent-Child Literacy Program we always go to.  I find the facilitator of the program very critical.  She always makes comments about how my daughter’s speech is behind, or because my other daughter isn’t walking yet, etc.  If its not one thing its another.  As you know, every child develops differently and you don’t need added criticism by someone who thinks they know everything.

Today she made a comment about how I got my hair done.  It was obvious that she didn’t like what she saw.  I said, “do you like it?” she responds with “well, I am not sure yet.  It is so different from your usual”.  Okay, well I guess in not so many words she hates it. I just think its rude to tell someone this and make them feel worse about themselves.  If someone asked me, I would respond with “you always look beautiful”.  However, I find that women have a nasty habit of putting each other down and talking about each other behind their backs.

From a very young age, I have always enjoyed the company of boys/men.  Its not because I am a tomboy, because I am definitely not.  I love being a girl and have always been into barbies, hair, etc.  I just feel like women can be so cut-throat with one another, where men don’t hurt you or don’t backstab you, they are just there for you. 

A friend is there for you when you are not at your best.  They don’t ask for anything in return, they are just there.
