I give thanks that I have had a life that many of my friends were denied. In some aspects I feel it a duty to enjoy myself for them.<br /><br />Personally, I prefer for Ginny to touch-up her grey because that makes me feel better. Funny that it is a rare thing that men get their hair colored. I'm actually losing mine fast enough that the color is a moot issue. You should remember that virtually all the Haley's turned prematurely gray — your father was turning gray when he was in high school.<br /><br />If you feel young Char, then I feel younger. So, go with the color which you makes feel more comfortable. Incidentally, I'm impressed that you are playing tennis — you go girl!<br /><br />Missing you,<br />PaulGeorge Farrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10664558846798464841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872283946354748354.post-77340165685729526472009-12-10T17:21:38.921-08:002009-12-10T17:21:38.921-08:00I hit the same hair crisis this year.

She cut it pretty short so the transition would be over sooner. I was sure I'd hate it, and that I was slipping into the crone phase of "I have grey hair. Deal with it." Weirdly, that all seems like ancient history now. I actually LIKE the way my hair looks with the grey right there in plain sight!<br /><br />Funny about the tennis ensemble ;-) but hey, it makes perfect sense to me!<br /><br />-Doni<br /><br />Happy Birthday to you!Sarah Swenson LMHChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04750218743384201851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872283946354748354.post-48893141658618286312009-12-10T09:16:06.323-08:002009-12-10T09:16:06.323-08:00Deep in the heart of our "mind tricks" t...Deep in the heart of our "mind tricks" to deal with our hippie generation getting, dare I say, older, I laugh SO hard at your own observations, Charmaine!!!!
