In which I post old stuff pretending it counts as a new entry

So I got my hair cut a few weeks back. I don't remember how many. Long enough that I should've posted it then, but recent enough that I'm still being stopped by people who exclaim, "Hey, you got your hair cut!"

So right when I got it done I took pictures so you could see it. Assuming you were all dying to see it, of course. I hope you weren't literally dying, since it was weeks ago now.

but here it is.

I'm not sure it still looks that way. I can never make my hair do what salon people do. But if anything I think I like it my way better. Although there are no pictures of that, and maybe it only looks different to me.

Holy Moly I'm Behind!

Look at that picture up there! The one in the blog header! Not only does it have my old blog name, which I sort of changed but didn't really, but also ... the "baby" in the sling is now 4 years old!And not only that, but It's missing AN ENTIRE CHILD! A child who is about to turn one year old!

It's almost like ... I've neglected my blog design!

Oh, right, I remember. I was going to revamp the whole thing.

Until I remembered how much WORK that would be.

What if I just re-do the picture and ... hm. I could PAY someone for a nicer design. One that's less cumbersome to edit and more stylish. I could muddle through something myself, with my latent artsy fartsy abilities, but they're pretty rusty and when I go into creative mode I tend to forget everything else in my life. Which doesn't really work so well when there's laundry, meals, dishes, school, and children already on my plate. But it's hard to decide to pay someone for something you know you could do, if given the time and attention. Not that it's about the money, it's more about the CAN do thing.

But wow, is that picture out of date.

I should make a new picture, at the least.

Look for that in the next ... um ... few years.

yeah.

In the meantime, here's the baby, in the leaves, from a few weeks ago. 'Cause I'm a little behind.

oh, ha ha ha, funny story. At least, funny in the sense of "What a dork I am!" -- Just now, after posting this, I went to edit the picture and I found the Christmas picture I was working on two years ago. No, 2006 was THREE years ago. That I never sent out. All of you who didn't get our Christmas Card two years ago, or three years ago, and thought you were rudely omitted from our list? No, I just didn't send any out. And same thing last year, except for the part where I even tried to work on the picture. Maybe I should start working on Christmas '10 right now?
