I randomly chose 1943 and found out this could be really pleasant rainy day diversion. Thanks for posting this! :)

Hi MegamiOrchard,
I am in the same boat as you. I have to wash my hair everyday too. Also the very straight, fine, flyaway hair too. I have spent years just braiding it and forgetting about it. I have a hairdresser appointment this Thursday, probably the third one in my entire life...
Pretty Pedestrian Really
We met at work. Started dating after about two months, married and have been together almost 20 years now. We are growing closer all the time. :)
My Parents
My mother would refer to a woman that in today's lingo would be a twit, as a Dumb Bunny.
My father who became exasperated at his children .05 seconds after getting in the car with them would say, "I don't want to hear another peep out of you!" To which my sister and I would say...
I have made three different sizes of hair rats out of my sheeps wool. I have white, brown, and gray to blend and am pleased with the results. I am taking them with me to my hairdressers appointment on Thursday. Ursula is going to be put through her paces, because I have never darkened a...
Thank you for your contribution. I have handled revolvers and rifles forever but am new to shotguns. While I was cleaning all of our long guns recently I had to phone a friend to find out how to 'pump' the shells through the gun. I wanted to know how many it would hold. I didn't shoot...

For your perusal:
My most recent trip out-of-town, working of course. But I thought you might enjoy a few photographs of Abbeville, South Carolina. A couple of pictures of my 50's era motel, not recommended, except for the brave at heart. Loved the tile work in the bathroom and the fact...
That Is Absolutely Insane
What is the point of wiping away what is beautiful, historic, and gracious only to replace it with some modern monstrosity? What short sightedness.
My own home is an old plantation which we are slowly bringing back from ruin. Keeping as much of it as original as...
When my son came traipsing into the kitchen this morning barefoot, I heard my mother say, "Barefoot as a pet coon". Never heard her use that expression before and she uses a lot of them from her 30's farmstead childhood.

Possibility Here in South Carolina
I will be scheduling an appointment in Orangeburg, SC at Beauty Time with Ursula. She is an older German lady, who after meeting her I can tell she has an eye for detail.
I brought her a vintage 1946 hairstyle book and we went through it together. She...
