Birthday, jello shot weekend.
I cut off all my hair and died it black!
After all that time growing it out my hair had finally grown down to my nipples (if straightened). And frankly, I was done with it. I like it long, but it was time to let go of whatever it was I was holding onto with my hair. Time for more fun, a new season to pass.
The family is here this weekend and it fills me with joy. It's crazy how over the years I've grown into the family more and more. Now with Brent it's like a circle is complete. My brothers and him get along, my parents adore him, and he's really part of the family.
Brent and I are contemplating taking a summer course in Milan in July, we really need to scrape together the money though and I'm not sure how it will go down. Maybe a personal loan? Anyway, some money will also have to be devoted to remodeling his mom's house, which we are moving into once his lease is up. We only pay utilities and we get free rein of taking down/putting up walls, painting, decorating, etc. Anything we invest we will get back in the eventual sale of the house (fingers crossed), and it seems like a fun project I can't wait to get my hands on. I've always wanted to "flip" a house if you will. I spend my days thinking about construction and lath and plaster and furniture. Very invigorating for my brain to have something to think about, now that I have no foreseeable big projects on the horizon.
