I love your hair shorter! And are you going to donate that lovely pile of hair to Locks of Love?
Thank you! I prefer it to the long hair, honestly. I used to be told to braid and put up my hair in elaborate styles but i never had the patience or ability to do it all up.
I still have the hair and was waiting for a chance to take it to the post office. I should be able to donate it soon.
Congratulations on learning to drive! That's great and if/when you have a car, going for a little drive is a great way to escape! I have days where my husband walks in and I'm like "by, I'm running to the store!".... it's possible that sometimes I run to the store at the next town over and maybe stop to get a coffee too... I'll never tell!
Sorry about the stress, but you look amazing! That's a lot of hair to cut off!
2016 hasn't started off well for me, but I'm hoping it just started really bad to get it all out of the way! They say bad news comes in threes, so my three have hit and maybe it will be great from here on! I do have good news, we have everything pre approved to become foster parents! I just had to resend in some paperwork that they needed the originals of, but they called today and said we are good to go once those get there and they should be there by Tuesday! Trying to focus on that because we are so excited for that!
I had to teach myself because the stress of being stuck home was really getting to me. I've gotten to the point where I had one day bugs that just bring me down for a night so I am forced to rest. That and tummy issues have me feeling pretty awful.
But driving certainly has made me feel more independemt. The only problem I've had is that my sister and I were pulled over without licenses (the DMV here can take weeks to get an appointment for the driving test) and the cop gave us a warning. We were pulled over because the brake light had burned out (new used car) but he said if he caught us again, he would have to give us a ticket. It sucks but now I have to be cautious because he patrols on one of the main streets that goes through the entire town. It puts a damper on me just because I barely taught myseld two weeks ago and now I have to stop.
Congratulations, Alice! That's a major step you are taking and I know it will enrich both yours and a child's life!
