Life's stepping stones

Catching up

Short of a bullet post, here are a few updates on my life and thoughts.

Last week I got my haircut at a new salon. Bad idea! It was the first time I had a guy cut my hair, which I was OK with. Every female that I know that has a male stylist really likes them. I, however, will not be making a return visit. I'll be going back to the salon I was going to before now and I'll just find a new stylist, because mine moved to Chicago. I do not like my cut. All I needed was a trim and someone he still screwed that up...and it took him an hour to screw it up. Then, when he asked how I normally style it, he said that he really doesn't use the round brush. I should have just told him to leave it and I would just wear unstyled hair home. End of rant. It will grow back and I've already scheduled my next appointment elsewhere.


I'm currently watching Grey's Anatomy online during my lunch hour. This is great for catching up on ABC T.V. that I miss. Brothers and Sisters is in the hopper for another time at home.

Lately I've been having numerous debates in my head. No time for details here but I feel like I have that little angel on one shoulder and the devil on the other. For example, change can be great and I can look forward to new opportunities, while at the same time I can fear change and worry that it won't be all I'm hoping for. This same debate replays over and over lately. I suppose that's the voice of reason arguing with my emotions. Days ago I meant for this to be a full post but this is what I've got now. I'm intrigued to see which little character wins out on each issue. Do you ever imagine what your little characters would look like? Somehow I see mine as looking like those little troll dolls from a few years ago, more than actually looking like me.

I've been thinking about C's recent posts about yoga and the power of our minds. I'm really trying to make the best of each situation because I'm trying to remember that my mood and mindset influence so many other things in my life - the people around me, my work productivity, my own outlook on each and everyone moment with my husband, son and friends. I'm going to do my best to keep a positive attitude.

  • I love the image of troll dolls! Hehe. I had forgotten about that middle school craze. Gee, the things we spent our money on...

    Yeah for you for thinking about your attitude and emotions. Being AWARE is a critical step. The rest just sort of falls into place afterwards.

    Sending my love to you, dear. Have a good week!!
