PSA: Hair

Herewith let it be known that, if a four and half year old child has an irretrievable rat's nest of hair in the aftermath of the application of too much ice-cream and other sticky stuff, it is somewhat less than advisable to decide to give said child a haircut after one glass of wine, as the results will require remediation.

That is all.

    Yes, two glasses of wine is recommended.

    Are you going to blame someone else? I hate having to face the professionals after I've done some hacking.

    In fact, I have to take my dog to the groomer next week, and she's going to raise her eyebrows at the "corrections" I made.

  7. Just refer to it as her "summer hair style".

    Oh, pictures, please, so we can all enjoy a good laugh with OUR glasses of wine.

    At least it's just hair...it will grow...and maybe before the authorities notice!

    And confirms my belief that kids and ice cream is a dangerous combination.

  18. You're right. The kid probably needs at least two glasses of wine to sit still enough not to cause a disaster.

  19. Oh, wait. You meant after you drank the wine. Got it.
