There have been two payoffs since I got my one eight of an inch "crewcut!!" The first payoff was that the book tour was postponed for two months. Rosezelle won't even see me as she did not care for the longer "crewcut" that I got in February and she wants me to grow back my hair as quickly as possible!

Hmmmmmn! How does one grow one's hair back on demand!!????

The second payoff is that my husband hates my hair this way. In fact, he hates having me next to bald so much that he has finally agreed to let me clear out some of the "family junk" that has been building up in the house that we lived in,....if I promise to let my hair grow out and never go "bald" again!!

(The house, that he grew up in and used to belong to his mother,..is now our house!! Just a few months ago,..I was lucky to have gotten rid of some of the stuff that they had parked in the old barn and the old sheds!!)

Have you,..oh gentle reader,..ever seen one hundred and fifty years of history piled up in one three story house?? Have you ever lived with one hundred fifty years of family history, tripped over one hundred fifty years of family history,..had to dust off one hundred fifty years of family history,..family history..on a daily basis?
