1. I got my hair cut today. That is actually worth mentioning because getting a haircut is something I only do about once every year and a half. I grow it down to my waist, then get it cut to shoulder length and donate the ponytail to Locks for Love. When you live with three males, you can have 14 inches taken off your hair and nobody will notice.

2. I’m off to London tomorrow! Just me and College Student…Dad and Junior High Kid will stay home. (It’s nice that Dad works from home now instead of 30 miles away! It’ll make it easier to deal with Junior High Kid’s schedule.) I decided years ago that I wanted to take each kid on a special trip, anywhere in the world they want to go, just the two of us, sometime before they move out. College Student chose London. And the timing of this trip couldn’t be better…College Student is off to the west coast for the internship of a lifetime three days after we get back.

Two on Tuesday

    I think it’s great that you donate your hair. It’s such a wonderful program.

    Have a great trip!

      I’ll ask you the same thing I asked Crissa…if you’ve been there, do you have any last minute advice for me?

        Oh, it’s been so long since I was there, but we found that having a week-long Tube pass was very helpful. I don’t know if they still have that or not. It kept us from having to pay each time.

        Remember if you want ice in your soda you might have to ask for it. They’re not big on ice.

        Try to stop somewhere for a cream tea. Yum. I am sure there is some touristy (or not) tea shop where you can get your fill of scones and jam and clotted cream. 🙂

        I love the Tower of London. Love it. And I really regret not going to the British Museum.

          Cream tea? Sounds interesting. I’m really looking forward to the Tower of London!I read a traveler’s review from a person who said there “wasn’t much to see there.” Looks to me like there’s PLENTY to see.
