Jim has given us several forms of media to choose from for today’s Song Lyric Sunday. I have chosen TV because it seemed to be the easiest. It also gave me the opportunity to pick a song that I think is an important part of Beyoncé’s repertoire. The song is called “Pretty Hurts” and was […]
I have had a few dreams over the past few nights that reminded me that it is a long time since I had a hair cut. I have been dreaming about being in the chair, having a junior member of staff at the salon shampoo my hair and massage my scalp. I have been dreaming […]
