Dose of Happy Monday: Fresh Haircuts

Good morning!

Happy Monday, y’all!

Sometimes I look at my kid and he looks all grown up, and I can’t believe it. I think there’s no way that my 7 year old looks like he’s 10. He’s growing up right before my eyes and it hurts.

But then I realize his hair is really, really shaggy and I make an appointment for him to get his hair cut.

And just like that? Within a few minutes of cutting and thinning, he looks like my little 7 year old again. Young and innocent.

My baby. My happy.

Dose of Happy: Almost Broken Habits

I painted my nails two weeks ago in honor of Susan Niebur and her almost-5-year battle with inflammatory breast cancer.

I’ve never had a period of time where I stopped picking my nails.

I don’t bite. I pick. I did realize a long time ago that biting them was pretty gross. But I pick. And pick. And pick.

Ugh.

I know it’s anxiety. And maybe even a little OCD.

But I painted my nails and wanted them to be perfect. For Susan, who would never see them.

I haven’t picked at my fingers in TWO WEEKS, y’all!

I changed the purple sparkle polish twice and now it has clear/silver glitter polish. They’re so pretty I can hardly stand it.

I want to pick. But I’m not.

My Dose of Happy this week is that I’m able to tap my fingernails on my computer and THEY MAKE NOISE!!
