times, they are a'changin

Well, I've decided I'll be making a brand new blog to begin my thirties and also the new year. It's kind of exciting... the inspiration I need, actually.
Major goal of 2011-- WRITE! For myself and nothing else.
When I decide, I'll post a link... I think.

ch-cha-cha-changes

I'm making today the day that I look into school extensively. I'm going to do the cosmetology program at the technical college. I will have to get details and do the dirty work (look into grants/loans.. ugh! can't express my anxiety about that enough). And I will have to map out a plan of action.

The change scares the crap out of me. As it is, I don't have much me-time.. but when I start school I will be SUPER pressed for time. But I have to remember there will be a light at the end and that it's what I want to do long-term. I'm cut out for being a hairstylist/colorist. I feel it in my blood.

I am very comfy with my current job, though, I have to say. They've worked with my schedule and been good to me. I have amazing benefits. I get paid very well (which is another worry for post-school -- will I make enough money??). BUT - ultimately, I know that I want to do something creative and in my wavelength, something more rewarding on a personal level, and more "Me".


So I just have to make take all of the steps in order to get what I want in the end.
It's going to be an interesting journey. And scary.

Also, my mother in law is talking about retiring at the end of this school year, so that would free her up to help us with Drake after-school and such if it were needed if I'm in school, etc.

Can't say how scary this idea is. but also exciting.
Nothing worth doing is easy as someone once said. It is true.

Goals to help me Blossom.

• Take the time to meditate. 10 minutes per day, alone in a dim room, lots of concentrated breathing and releasing of toxic energy.
• Drink more water. It is cleansing. Besides, in the last two or so years, I've become prone to kidney infections and UTI's.. I need my water.
• Get back into the groove of snail-mail. Receiving something personal in the mailbox makes my day. I want to make the days of those I love.
• Talk to myself in a more positive light. Give myself a break. Be kind, be kind.

just stuff

I absolutely love this girl's blog - It's midnight at the starlite diner. It's chock full of thoughts on songs. How perfect is that? And her taste is eerily similar to mine, love reading it. She makes me want to start a music-related blog.

My son is starting Pre-K on Monday. How is this? I can't grasp it just yet. Still. We are going to meet his teacher tonight, and walk around the school, familiarize him with it. I think I'm more emotionally distressed at the thought of him being in school than he is.
So much to do today.

I spent this past weekend in Atlanta, partying with seven women. It was my longtime friend's bachlorette party. We had a good time, but I am not as young as I used to be. It wears me out to party two nights in a row on little to no sleep.. holy hell. But there was a lot of laughing and fun, which is vital. So it was good.

I do not write here enough. Dammit. I say that all of the time.
