THE FRENCH GIRL BOB!!! It looks sensational on you!!!!!! Just tried to get the same thing, but ended up walking away looking like Spongebob. Wow do I wish I could post a photo here. 🤣
Really?! I've never heard of that happening! Can you get a keratin treatment in your part of the world? Then Spongebob could be like Spongebob but... with kourtney Kardashian hair?? (thoughts and prayers)
Here’s to more fantastic hair in 2025, I love it! I heard yesterday someone refer to what they were doing in their quest for more success as “mindless striving”. It struck me as a word for what I often do which is want more, more, more without ever questioning - does this actually matter to me and do I need it? Life (it seems) is a series of trade offs and I want to be more mindful of what I’m trading for “more” in 2025 - and so less mindless striving. Have a lovely break xx
I have to say I'm with Cousin #2. And as a fellow Future Tripper, I already have 3 plans in place:
1. Zombie Apocolype Plan: Ride our bikes to my parents house in the country where they have a private well, a big garden, a wood furnace, and a knowledge of how to hunt and fish
2. We Need To Escape The U.S. Plan: Our entire extended family is getting our Austrian citizenship through the program for descendants of Holocaust survivors
3. America Is In A Finacial Crisis + My Industry Is Crumbling Due To AI Plan: We're converting the basement of our duplex into a third apartment so we have more money for the boys' college, my MIL's eldercare, our retirement
When I type that all out it sounds ... dire? alarmist? But it actually makes me feel a lot better to have plans in place and nobody ever regretted having a second citizenship or another source of income, right?
Oh my gosh, my beautiful friend... we are on the very same page I think. Collapse preparedness is only just reaching me as a concept, and I think the US is a little ahead of us in terms of genuinely planning for it, in whatever way that might be and however "Seriously". I love your practicality! I actually want to talk more about this in 2025 (without bumming folks out?? is that possible???) so more to come from me! And I hope more to come from you, too, because I love learning how you think xx
I used to travel all the way to Bristol to see my pal who does it great, but can’t do that now in a parent! So thank goodness I’ve found Beth! Good hair, man. It’s all we want!
Very glad you’re back in the land of writing outside of the books! ❤️❤️

Oh my friend... a bad haircut is a fate worse than standing on upturned lego, and far more painful. At least Bob has a great sense of humour??????
And the older I get, the more...like...coarse it's getting. I'll take seventeen pumps of argan oil and a hat, please.

Yes! What's that quote about the price of something being the amount of peace of mind you trade it for!
Mostly importantly: YOUR HAIR LOOKS WONDERFUL!
