New Lease on Life

Haircuts. There are few things in this world that make a woman feel better. Especially a good haircut. You know the kind...you walk out feeling renewed, spunky, fun, and pretty. You stand a little straighter and walk a little more confidently. Cam & I busted over to UT this morning before the baseball/softball games to get our "hairs did". Dan hates mine, but I love it. Besides, he isn't the one who has to style it.

Cam got over four inches trimmed off, a few layers cut in, and Jessie decided she needed some curl. I think it looks fantastic.

By the way, Cam is very interested in photography and does a bang up job. She snapped my head shot and, man, don't her eyes look like mine?

AND, Dan, I thought I'd include a picture of my other twin. Ed Grimley. Gotta love Ed.

AND, AND, maybe it's the lighting, maybe it's the fact that I had way more makeup on than usual, but my eyes aren't enhanced at all. Neat-o, huh? I have GREAT eye genes on the Phillips side.

Curb Your Tongue

"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." That is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. We should ever be watchful about the things that we say to each other for words can cut one to the quick, and the damage lasts longer than any broken bone.

There are few things in this world that bother me as much as the foolish words we toss out at others without thinking. The hurt we inflict and often never know. Please, can't we just love each other more. Be kinder. Softer in our approach. Gentler in our thoughts towards each other.

And, IF YOU DON'T HAVE SOMETHING NICE TO SAY....

If only I could remember this...

WHEN A MAN SHOWS YOU WHO HE REALLY IS THE FIRST TIME, BELIEVE HIM. THE FIRST TIME.
