good enough


I'm partway through cutting my son's hair this morning when he announces he wants it long at the front and short at the back. I have no certificates in hair cutting, it's one of the many many things I have a go at despite not necessarily having the training/skill/experience. Which pretty much sums up parenting for me. He seems happy enough with the end result, so I sigh with relief that I've gotten away with it for one more time. “Good enough” is how I live my life. Despite being a Virgo, I've had to let my perfectionist ideals slip. I just have to keep reminding myself to focus on the bits that are fine, not the bits that could have been better.
