Sorry, sorry, sorry. I’m here. That apology is mostly for me, because I was trying like hell to write every day, and all of a sudden I realize it’s been nearly a week since I posted last. Well, here we go:

Last Thursday was the last Thursday I would spend at my job. In fact, it was my last day ever there. I can’t explain to you what a wave of relief it was. I feel much better about myself and where I am going in life. I can go back to school now. I can take Aikido again. So many things I gave up for this job because I thought I needed it to survive. But I don’t. I don’t need money. I don’t like buying things. Also, I find myself wishing I had done more with my hair and my appearance when I was in high school. I wish I had chopped it off all those times I thought about it. But I was too scared. Instead it stayed pretty much the same a long until I graduated. Except of course the time I dyed it blue. Ahem. That pretty much shyed me away from dying for a long time. Well, I’ve been growing my hair out ever since I cut it off in fourth grade, but I can never seem to get it that far again. It’s gone down to my back, but I never do anything with it. I just let it hang there and it looks gross. Anyway, I’m rambling about hair because I always cut my own hair. But this last cut was not mine. (Like a week or so ago). I am learning that it is okay, even though I told her I was growing it out, and the layers are short again, I’m learning to love it.

I’ve been spending time with a new friend Merissa, and it’s been a blast. Rue is smiling more. Tom came over for poker last night. Tyler is leaving in less than a month for school and he’s not the only one in the house stressed about it. Mallory is growing into herself and taking her heart with her. Riley had surgery. Nicole fell in love. Rob grew older. Boozy’s home. Everyone around me is growing, changing, evolving, and I am too. It’s good. It’s all for the better, it really is. I’m just surprised that it’s all happening at once.

A late spring cleaning.

Which brings me to my final point for today: I am completely revamping this site. I need to. It will make me happy. I can’t wait until it’s done. I’ve been helping a few friends with theirs and I’m ready to hash away at mine. Time for change, time for change.

I love you all dearly.
Thank you to everyone who’s sent me something in the mail the past few weeks.
Bless your hearts.

The relief from leaving a job you’ve ceased to enjoy (or maybe never did?) can be a wonderful energiser; I know the feeling well. It’s great that you’ve done it.

Take the energy it gives you and do those things you know you should… those things which fill you and make you happy - that’s what it’s all about.

Everything always happens at once when it’s least expected!

I can relate to the hair, though very slightly. I used to keep my hair very plain, but from some urging by family to try and “spice” up my image in high school, I decided to get highlights. Man, I got teased by everyone for the entire duration of having the highlights. I’ve been afraid to do anything different ever since!

And it’s nice you’ve managed to leave your job behind. If you aren’t happy, you aren’t happy. It just seems right to fix that. Now if only I could just quit job, school, and just live the dream.

Hey girl, WOW, congrates, and welcome back to the life of school, and being young again. . . LOL. Oh I love to play around with hair, and I hope you wont be scared to do some stuff in the future. I thought that short hair wig that you have would look cute in real life. But anyways, I hope to see you this Saturday ^^ party party, Later

Your hair looks wonderful! And certainly a mature cut. I love shoulder length hair and had a cut rather similar to the one you have pictured but I’m just miserable with the hair dryer and likely always will be. ;) The great thing about long hair is you can get away with not styling it. Or at least it’s easier, lol.

Congratulations on earning some freedom! :D
