Sending my donation of hair to Pantene Great Lengths today — I wrote a nice letter thanking them for their great work in making a difference in the lives of child cancer survivors. It is a great feeling knowing that my hair is going to them and their great work at Pantene. 🙂
Thought I would post a little hair poem today because I am still experiencing hair coming from my head, so much I hate to even wash it in the shower. 🙁 Oh well. On a high side the wig is in! Just the blonde one, the dark brown was sent in the wrong color, so we may have to wait to get that one at a different time. Headed to Pink Petal on Friday for the fitting and I promised Jeff & Judy a fashion show with all the other wigs so you all can see me in all the different style and vote (?) for your favorite! 🙂 That should be fun.
Hair
I’m losing my hair…
Do I really care?
Oh yes! Despair!
My hair is falling out
EVERYWHERE!
Do I dare
Shave off my hair?
It is a scare
But to be fair
I will share
My hair
And then to clear the air
shave this hair
A wig I will wear
And the people will stop & stare
At a “new me” 🙂

Hahaha — Look out Dr. Seuss! Ok so that last line didn’t rhyme, but I thought I did a pretty good job eh? My girls that I coached skiing are really great about putting together poems. We enter our little ditties each year on Valentine’s Day and win fudge from a local craft shop. When I was a child I used to always write poetry. Mom always made me feel so talented when I would come up something — probably why I love to write today!
Thanks for stopping by — please leave a note and stay tuned as Friday should be entertaining!

Looking around I found this from George Carlin. Pretty funny. They also had it on You Tube. 🙂 Check it out. Hilarious.
Funny he continued to have a pony tail until his death of heart failure in 2008. A very very funny man.

I’m aware some stare at my hair. In fact, to be fair, Some really despair of my hair. But I don’t care, Cause they’re not aware, Nor are they devonaire. In fact, they’re just square. They see hair down to there, Say, “Beware” and go off on a tear! I say, “No fair!” A head that’s bare is really nowhere. So be like a bear, be fair with your hair! Show it you care. Wear it to there. Or to there. Or to there, if you dare! My wife bought some hair at a fair, to use as a spare. Did I care? Au contraire! Spare hair is fair! In fact, hair can be rare. Fred Astair got no hair, Nor does a chair, Nor nor a chocolate eclair, And where is the hair on a pear? Nowhere, mon frere! So now that I’ve shared this affair of the hair, I’m going to repair to my lair and use Nair, do you care? |
