shorter than expected

today it was time for my haircut.  


Let me give you a little background on how well i take care of my hair.  ummmm.  i don't.  i get my hair cut every 4-6 months at great clips and i always say 2 inches trimmed and add some layers (because by the time I go in again the layers i originally had put it are no longer distinguishable).  


so i went in today and said the same thing, but slipped, instead of saying 2 inches i said a couple.  the guy asked, "by a couple you mean 3-4 because i want to cut 4 inches off and add some crazy layers and make you look fierce?"  I still remember the last time I had that much cut off it was a male hair dresser as well and he didn't even get approval to cut that much off... he just did it.  i was a little upset with him (it was in mexico and i didn't get my hair cut in mexico again.  meaning i went 10 months without letting anyone touch my hair thanks to him.).  


so at first i resisted.


i feel like it's the males who want to do their own thing because they know best or whatever.  whereas the women generally keep in what they really think and offer suggestions only when asked.


then i said i changed my mind and he could do whatever he wanted.  i just went with it.


yeah, it's short, but sometimes it's good to go for a change.  i'm looking at changing a lot of things in my life right now so why not start with my hair?






p.s. what's on repeat for me today?     Sweet Disposition by Glassnotemusic

Kitchen Safety

We moved!  We're in our new place and we just got wifi.  Wahoo! I definitely broke in the kitchen quickly.  I was making a panini type sandwich for a potluck get together so I preheated the oven.  The next thing I knew the fire alarm was going off.  Let me tell you they did not skimp on a very loud fire alarm.  Ahhhhhhhh I opened the oven, which I know you're not supposed to do.  In the moment, I think I needed to see what I was dealing with.  There were definite flames.  Ahhhhhhhh So I called Mike while trying to google what to do.  He was super calm the entire call while I freaked out (it probably helped that he couldn't see the smoke billowing out of the oven).   He said to throw baking soda on it.  I did.  It seemed to fizzle but came back. I searched the apartment for a fire extinguisher (maybe I should have looked for one before this moment). This is while I kept trying to silence the fire alarm (to no avail) and open windows to let out smoke. Then Mike
I have a few things to update on today =) Oh I just finished the best meal I've had since I arrived and it was oh sooooo good! I'm so full and happy right now! It was a mexican meal so at least i know i'm going to the right country. yesterday Tere asked me to lead a little yoga class. automatically i said yes because that's how i am, but on the walk from the classroom to outside i started to get nervous. the only person i ever lead in yoga was karen & she laughed the majority of the time (it doesn't really count). i just took deep breaths and i did it. it actually was great. once we started i was able to integrate some favorite posses of the people in the class it was great towards the end when marcelle (who is rather soft spoken, but i love her) lead a few poses as well. i was actually happy with myself. namaste i love our group. everyone is similar that we all have this interest to do missionary work, but we are all very unique and different at the s

Spring!

Yes, I know it is not spring yet.   Today's the meteorological beginning of spring or something, isn't it? I definitely suffered some winter blues last month (yeah, it's March!). Check out these tulip fields for your Friday! Normann Szkop  took awesome photos while flying over Dutch  tulip fields . ( via ) p.s. Two days later I'm still feeling amazing after my juice cleanse .  Yes, it's possible that's not what it's from, but considering nothing else has really changed (except starting a new month, which I am so excited about), it's getting the credit. HAPPY FRIDAY & HAPPY MARCH!
