Big Chop

It’s been awhile, but….I did it!!!!  I cut my hair off!

This post will pretty much be visual only--this computer is horrid.

At this point, I'm regretting my decision to cut my hair.

I'm really, really upset.

An hour after the cut...faking the smile--I'm pissed at myself.

Next day--the cut is growing on me!

Daniel lining my edges.

Daniel's company party--I LOVE my hair!

Allllll  mine!

My boo singing karaoke.

Oh yeah--I pierced my nose, too--for real!

At work, it must be covered by a band-aid.

I twist my hair nightly for a great curl during the day.

I was in  a step show!

Last post, it completely slipped my mind to post books I've read and I shelved the books before I recorded them.  So...here's a list of about 1/4 of the books I've read since December.

 Pagan Babies  Elmore Leonard

Getting to Happy  Terry McMillan

What Happens in Paris (stays in Paris)  Nancy Robards Thompson

Be Mine  Laura Kasischke

The other Fan  Joanna Trollope

Darkly Dreaming Dexter  Jeff Lindsay

Little Earthquakes  Jennifer Weiner

Taking Back Mary Ellen Black  Lisa Childs

Tumbling  Diane McKinney-Whetstone

Hi guys!  Did you miss me?

Last, but not least, my Soror's mom is an amazing artist.  She painted the canvas shown below.  Please let me know if you're interested in buying a canvas for yourself (or for gifts!).  Her prices are reasonable, as well as a discount for 3 or more).

Blueprint, the Ace.

Have an amazing week, everyone!

Where does the time go?

Warning—tons of photos in this post!  My computer at home has been so frustrating with its speed and constant crashing, so I’ve finally come to the library to blog.  I couldn’t even blog at work—they have a block on blog sites.  I mean, do they really expect me to do nothing but work while I’m there?!?  :o) 

Not much discussion about hair will go on—that’ll be my next post for my 6 month update.

Over the last month I have:

Baked tons of goodies

Sugar cookies for my co-worker's birthday.

 

Happy  birthday, N!

It was a messy cookie sandwich but completely delicious!
