O momma

it is not often that i post about things that are seemingly unrelated to my loss with lucy these days but here is something i felt was worth sharing. When lucy died i stopped wearing make up and sort of threw my hands up in the air when it came to my hair. I have had no desire to change anything about my appearance. (as if that would bring her back some how)

Late last year i thought about what i could do with my hair which if you haven't seen me in person in sometime my hair has grown to be it's own nightmare. I have been planing on donating my hair to Locks of Love for Lucy's 2nd birthday and i happened upon an interesting opportunity when i was checking out the LoL website they other day.

O, the Oprah Magazine is working on a story called "Beauty Rehab." So i threw my hat in the ring for the story. I don't know if i got it yet but i did my "go see" with OSD today. and here is a picture from the office (courtesy of the lovely Alicia Bridgewater!)

anyway if you think you fit into her other spot get in touch with her. and remember to tell her Christine sent you.
