I'm going for the Uncle Joe on Petticoat Junction type, not the surly, bitter Rooney.<br /><br />Though I do find myself falling into complete and utter Rooneyism more and more often of late.<br /><br />Kathy used to cut my hair. We've quit that now. I got tired of the nervous laughter and hearing her mumbling, "Oh my!", or my personal favorite, " Well, it'll grow back."<br />Catawissa Gazetteerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04939761313614220536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456195848900902802.post-77005368744650960402014-07-18T23:16:08.348-05:002014-07-18T23:16:08.348-05:00Oh I could have given Andy Rooney a run for his mo...Oh I could have given Andy Rooney a run for his money in a curmudgeon race. But my banter is mostly the friendly kind.<br /><br />I cut my own hair these days (what there is of it) with one of those razor kits from Wal-mart. It seemed like every time I went to get my hair cut, no matter where I went the first thing they'd ask me was, "What comb setting do you use?" (for the razor). It's like you have to go out of your way to ask them to actually use a pair of scissors and cut your hair right anymore. I figure, if they're gonna be that lazy, I might as well by a cheap razor kit and cut it myself. Anybody can run a razor over their head--even me. These barbers are gonna put themselves out of business with these razor cuts I tell ya. Besides, my hair's so thin now, I can comb it with a wagon wheel. Ain't much point in trying to make it purdy.Yahoobuckaroo's Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17621308885893253608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456195848900902802.post-47486101141668296442014-07-18T06:11:17.291-05:002014-07-18T06:11:17.291-05:00Just try a pair Yahoo, and you'll find yoursel...Just try a pair Yahoo, and you'll find yourself drawn to the darkside, too.<br /><br />Ever since ol' Harry Truman went out of business, a good haberdashery has been hard to find. Not many tonsorial artists left in business anymore, either!<br /><br />Do you ever feel that you've been dropped into the wrong time and place in history?

Take things slowly and it will mend quicker, which is what I was always told by my Grandma. Usually when I had hurt myself tearing around at 60miles an hour!!!!!

Sounds like next time you're in there you need to sit those girls down and tell them to be nice to him. He's a hard worker and takes good care of y'all, (the hens, you and your granddaughter) ...they just need to lay there eggs and don't worry too much about him poking around in there! LOL <br />...hoping and praying for a speedy recovery, enough work when he is able and energy for you to get all the work done. :) <br />Pat Patricia @ 9th and Denverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04786692442689958889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456195848900902802.post-3776994010904588972014-07-11T20:54:09.677-05:002014-07-11T20:54:09.677-05:00Kristi- Thank you.
