Oh the trouble our mouth can get us into...so, today an un-named person offered me $50 to shave my head. In a flipped response, I say, "$50 no way, get $1,000 and sure." Gotta admit, I didn't really think that through so good. This person is connected, lots of friends with friends. Not to mention the fact that there are plenty of people in Berthoud and Grace Place that would get great amusement out of me being bald. As soon as the words left my mouth, panic set in. I can't possibly meet my new, sweet little child with a bald head. It might scare them. What would the Ukrainian judge think? Lets not talk about the forecasted weather in Ukraine...Monday for example has a high of 1 and a low of -6. My poor head would freeze......and I will NOT wear a wig or some crazy beaver skin hat! So where did we leave it, well I did say it and as a friend brought to my attention, $1000 wisely invested would be a nice little start to college for our newest addition. But, in all seriousness, I cannot go to Ukraine "butch" I gotta look the mommy part. So what I have agreed to is that upon my return home I would indeed fulfill my verbal mis-step and infact, shave my head. But please note, with the approved attachment and not for a penny less than the $1,000. Surely by then the weather will be warming up and it should give me enough time before wedding season starts up to get some "grow back" that I won't embrace some poor bride on her wedding day.
God has a sense of humor right? So do I!
Stay tuned!
