Goings on

I got my hair cut today. Where it was at the middle of my back, the longest layer now ends at the nape of my neck. I haven't had it this short since Em was a toddler. It's an odd feeling. AND for the first time in my life, I got my hair thinned. I'm not too sure of that (too late now, huh?). For those who know me in person which is not many, I have ALOT of hair. Very thick and curly. So it become a mane when it grows out. The weight of my hair will pull out the curl and I will have a frizzed head. BUT....the hair is short. It's not a bad cut. I'll just have to grow accustomed to it.

The PC will be back in my little hands by the end of the week. Tim said that not only had my hard drive failed but he has to replace my motherboard also. Parts and labor will cost me a total of $130 which is not bad considering that I once took a tower (the one I'm using presently) to CompUSA and they fucked me for about $100 to look at and screwed it up worse than it originally was. SO...YAY! for Tim.

I also found out that I won a little contest put out by Free Spirit Publishing. The question in this month's newsletter was what do you do to re-inspire you to achieve your goals. I replied that journaling was my tool. It helps remind me of who I really am and what I want. Explained that Em had picked up the habit. Also mentioned that I was keeping an online journal and that the comments from others helped inspire me also. Well, they liked my entry and I get a book about setting goals and taking steps to achieve them. Yay! Free Spirit is an awesome company. My daughter's gifted teacher introduced me to it a couple of years ago.

Had a couple of online notes from some fabulous people. Few other good things happened today but nothing overwhelming fantastic to write about. Watching Amelie now.

GREAT MOVIE. Love that movie, I too own it. As for digital cameras look into a kodak. I have a Kodak DX3900 and I absolutely love it. It's very easy to use and it has all the cool settings to play with. It wasn't expensive either. You can probably go on to amazon.com to find one.

I'm glad your having a good day. :) CONGRATZ on the contest.

I love Amelie!! I bought it also, and Emma and I watch it regularly. I even own the soundtrack because I love that instrumental background.

I don't have a pic to post. I NEED to buy a digital camera. That's somewhere on my wants list...one day.
