What's in a Name?
I love being married: to have, to hold, in sickness and in health, etc...it's a beautiful thing. But do I really need to take on my husband's name? Oh, I know we're meant to, but I don't want to give 'me' up...excuse me, of course I mean my name. I've lived with it my whole life and have become quite partial to it. As my friend laments, "I've finally come to love and accept my name, I used to think it was long and hard to pronounce. I don't want to lose it now that I've found peace with it."
What does this say about us? Are we bad, selfish wives? Are we just trying to have our cake and eat it too? Enjoying the trappings of marriage (...to have, to hold, etc...) but acting out our single, independent days sans the 2.5 kids when we had disposable income?
I guess I could go double-barreled but my hand would hurt...DO I JUST NEED TO GROW UP?

Ojon Restorative Hair Treatment
Four months after the birth of my son and what do you know..not just content with being 3 stone heavier but now my hair is falling out! I could swear it was coming out in clumps, and however much my hairdresser tries to reassure me by telling me how lucky I was that I still had the front of my hair! Others apparently loose at the front....roll on 2 months later and my hair is stronger, thicker and this is all thanks to the Hair Restorative programme....From the Miskito Indians in South America, to Oprah, from Estee Lauder to QVC everyone's talking about the secret to beautiful hair is wildcrafted Ojon, a rich oil extracted from the tropical Ojon tree. This oil will coat your hair in the harsh winter months and repair it in process.
It smells great and simply rubbing a tiny amount, and yes really a tiny amount will leave your hair sleek and glossy all week! They do recommend you wash it out after a day or two, but for extra conditioning (i like to think, it works better) I leave it in all week!
