QuoteReplyTopic: When is the last time you did something that was so difficult and it ended up okay? Posted: January 11 2000 at 9:24pm
In January my husband past away and I felt lonely. A single girlfriend mentioned this single dance. You know the type of dance that involves about 400 people or so and the purpose for it is to dance and meet others. Well that was the most difficult thing to do. How can I ever allow another man dance with me when I been married so long etc.I wasn't feeling my best plus I was conscious that I wasn't the most slim female around. I dress up a nice red dress and fix my long wavy hair. I put all my attention on my hair as I felt a bit overweight.My girlfriend is a barbie doll that would easily describe her looks, her eyes her hair . ( her hair is shorter).she used to have very long hair but she had a disease that took care of that and now she is growing it back.It was the toughest evening but funny enought we had a good conversation about long hair , short hair with women and men around us and it was very pleasant.
Hi, Diane!I can say I had such an experiance today. I never look forward to the two-hour drive South to my Great-aunt's house. But then, it is the only way to see my Grandpa, so I go. I have to put up with THEM!, being my two Great-aunts, and their families. (They all call themselves "cousins" , even if they are not related. They all drink too much, they are insulting, and they don't like me.)However, upon leaving, with my hair intact, but self-esteem ruined, Grandpa does something different. He asks to walk out with me. He don't get around well, and I tell him I'm all the way at the end of the street, so we just go out to the porch.He asks, "Which one of these things, (hairpins), to I pull out to get your hair back?" It's hot and stickey, so I have my hair in one of my little updo's that I love to create. So I take it down, all sweaty and, by now, very wierd looking. I make a futile attempt at saying something. It's pretty stupid. I ask "Grandpa, would you love me the same without my hair?" He replies, " Honey, I see what you put up with to come see me, and you still come! Please, keep comming. I will love you any way you come to me. You are the most beautiful thing these old eyes have ever seen, and that ain't no B--- S---."He even got teary-eyed. I have never seen him this way. He's lucky, just getting teary-eyed, because I cry a roaring river! Make-up and all. What a sight:Sreaks on my face,On a hot, humid day,Hair looking very odd,One hundred miles from home,Going to a delapidated car,And crying a river,But I feel beautiful! It turned out to be a Great Day!
>I would call your grandfather a guardian angel on earth. He sounds like a man that is very wise, kind and experienced. He is no fool for sure.For the rest of that family I can't type the words as it would be very very awful and others members on this board would be offended.There is no reason for this type of cruelty and that is the best I can say for you. I had some family members like that on a diffirent topic and the family split when my father died and I really don't care if they are alive or dead.

It turned out to be a Great Day!Hi Deana,I hope you took my message with you to show Grandpa! See, there was no discussion of haircutting, the nice old man just wanted to take a good look at its beauty!!!I'm so glad you had a great day.bb
Diane,When he becomes a guardian angel in Heaven, I know he will understand why I would never go there again.Let's not think bad thoughts, it's their loss for shutting Mom and I out of their lives. We should feel sorry for them, instead.Bb,I did share our conversation. He wants to go out being known as a "Ladies Man".. but he did add that "long hair made them even more beautiful."He knew my hair was still long, he just had to see it. I knew he loved me, I just had to hear it.
