Emergency Head Shaving Party!

The day started with with the shower water not draining...OMG... there was a baseball size glob of hair that didn't make it down the drain, which to me meant, I'm sure lots did,.... but then maybe now I got all of the loose hair and the rest will be secure.  Whatever!  If I ran my hand through it, I would come up with even more hair than yesterday.  It was one of the few days I had to leave the house,  I'm so grateful that I can stay home when I need to.  I then had to figure out what in the heck I could wear that would go with a bandanna and baseball cap.  I was going to lunch with my cousin Teri and her friends at the Enchantment Resort.  It is amazingly beautiful there....You know, before this pesky cancer thing I probably wouldn't have taken the time...and boy did I hear about it....to drive 1 1/2 hrs to just go to lunch then turn around and drive back.  It was sssoooo worth it. Okay, wait, back up,  I've driven to Prescott (1hr drive) for a 17 second horse race got my picture taken, got back in the car and went back to work! Anyway, I had to try to keep my hair "contained". Nobody wants to have lunch with someone that would get hair in their meal!  I was shedding like an Alaskan Malamute in Arizona.   I was afraid I was going to take my bandanna off and all of my hair would be in it... scary!  I actually looked, then I called for the emergency head shaving party.  I had decided that I wanted "my kids" to cut my hair for me.  I thought it would be better for them so they just didn't show up and I was bald, AND they are incredibly fun to have around! I had talked about it with their real mom, Andi, and it was the plan.  I called Andi.  This can't wait till next week, there might not be any hair left by then.  They were coming at 7:00pm.  That, in itself, was no small feat.  We're talking three very active girls. Their schedules are packed; between homework, cross fit, cheer, singing, softball, Greek dance, friends and, oh, just being kids they have 0 time.  They were rounded up and all at my house at 7:00 with Thea Georgia in tow.  Lloyd came over with clippers, and Teri showed up with a camera...great?  I ordered pizza, I didn't really know what to serve at a head shaving party ...I ate my gluten free meal...what will power!..then it was time for the main event.  Yikes! First, we had to decide who was going first... there was some discussion about who wanted to do what style...I was like a human Chrissy doll.  Do they even make those any more? I'm sure now it's some computer generated makeover!...  At first, they each took a turn cutting rather timidly, Anna was holding my hand for support.  It didn't take long for all three to be working at the same time..  I went from Rhianna to Brittney in less than an hour!  And, okay, I can be an idiot and still say some of the stupidest things on the planet.  Never say, " Be careful with those scissors, if I get cut I could die!...omg..I'm kidding, I'm kidding".  Evidently, NOT funny.  I keep forgetting that everyone doesn't know that I'm going to be okay.  Other than that, we had a blast..in a weird sort of way. Lots of love and laughter.  Thanks girls!   I can't imagine watching it come out piece by piece,  or sitting in a salon or barber shop watching someone shave it off. You did an awesome job and made me laugh!   Next official party is the Wig Hunt on Monday!
