Francie, I think some people are just plain "stupid"! They do not really mean to but they can offend or sound critical and I do not for the life of me understand why. Personally I love long hair and wish I could grow mine long, but it's too fine to look really good long so I keep it med. length, although recently I cut it shoulder lenght and love it for the summer and working in the garden and getting all sweaty it just works for me!
Another little something about me.....I am also into Rock-hounding and collecting minerals and gew stones in the rough! I have found some beautiful garnets before and some rutile crystals, quartz crystals, agate, sapphire, green tourmaline (that was up in Maine), and that's just a few. I had a georgeous collection which sadly I had to leave behind when I moved here. I had to do some serious down-sizing!!! But I kept a few choice pieces and all my jewelry of-course. I collect all types of gemstones and crystals and have jewelry that is so diverse a collection it is unreal! I even do wire-wrap jewelry, took a class on it years ago and it is something you never forget! I have hunted for rocks all over the US from one coast to the other. I have almost placed my hand on a scorpion and once I was hammering away at a rock only to look right below where the rock lay and spotted a copper head sunning, it was just beginning to be Spring and he was still lethargic from hibernation or he probably would have struck me. Thank God he did not for we were pretty far out in the boonies at an old closed down Mica mine. That is where I found my 1st beautiful garnet crystals! OK guys ya' all hurry up and tell me some more! So I can tell you some more!
