A Sonnet To Summer

“If there is anything virtuous, lovely, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things.”

A SONNET TO SUMMER

How bright the effulgent beams which crown the hills,
And flood the world with beauteous, golden light!
The earth from sea to sea is beaming bright
With dazzling beauty, all the air it fills,
And in my saddened heart new hope instills,
Which frees it for a moment from its blight.
See all around is bloom, the mountain height,
And forest glade and banks of rippling rills.
O summer season, gladdest of the year,
Sweet, radiant season, loving, blooming time,
To me thy sunlit scenes are ever dear,
My heart is filled with the music of thy chime
Thy warm sun soothes like a maiden’s kiss the soul
And cheers and thrills and beautifies life’s; whole.

~Colfax Burgoyne Harman

[7:30] “Now I promise you, Mr. Hollick will never be making a video like this.”

[7:45] “I’m having a good hair day, how exciting! Well, You can make yourself have more “good hair” days if you take a little bit more extra time and put a little extra effort into making that last little finishing step that says, ‘Wow, I care’.”

[9:07] “I hope that this inspires you to maybe try something new, something that’s unexpected.”

Fiddler On The Roof Review & Tribute To Topol– OUT & ABOUT: One Woman’s Opinion by Dianne This performance of Fiddler On The Roof was electrifying and moved me to tears several times.

Topol's Performance Was Utterly Electrifying

Topol in Fiddler on the Roof

10 Signs You Need A Hair Makeover:
1 ) You’re mood, you feel depressed and you may not realize it
2 ) You project it–change is refreshing and you haven’t been refreshed
3 ) You’re attached to a hair stylist who doesn’t want you to change (complacency)
4 ) When you look at your pictures from days gone by, you look the same, and not in a good way. Everyone else around you has evolved, but you have played it safe and stayed the same
5 ) Your hair just doesn’t suit your lifestyle
6 ) Just because you had a great hairstyle six years ago, that doesn’t mean that’s the ONLY style for you
7 ) You want to enhance your beauty
8 ) You haven’t experimented with color for three months or more. It’s like going to a restaurant and ordering the same thing over and over. How will you know if you like something if you don’t try it?
9 ) You’re personality isn’t reflected in your hairstyle
10) You haven’t received a compliment anytime recently on your hair

Trying rollersets using different hair products show the difference they make.

I used too much gloss, see my followup for how I handled the greasy look. If you caught Part 1, you’d see it was too greasy-looking for me to wear down. No matter, lots of options when your hair is rolled!

Part One: Rollerset with Hairgloss

Part TWO – Collar BLOOPER


Part Three – Sassy Updo and Minking Mascara Tip
