Tuesday Ten

1. I have done it! I have finally figure out what my business venture will be. For years, I have struggled to figure out what sort of business I wanted to open. There has never been a question about the fact that I want to be self-employed. I just have so many interests and passions, it was hard to narrow it down. I can’t say just yet, because I want to figure some things out first. And hey, this is one of my 30 Things To Do Before 30. Wahoo!

2. I’m already itching to change my hair for my big hair experiment. I will be going chocolate brown whenever my roots start showing. It is currently black and I will be lightening gradually – at home. This should be fun.

3. My entire family has been sick for several days. It seems to just be a cold, but I had it pretty bad, complete with fever. Feeling a little better today and am hoping to get some stuff done around the house!

4. Nearly May. South Mississippi. I’m freezing. What?

5. I’m a failure. I signed up for Bobbi Sheridan’s Healthy Train. The first weigh-in is Friday. I have not lost a pound. If fact, I may have gained. Yep, failure.

6. Harper really wants to walk. He has been standing for 10-20 seconds unassisted and you can see him shift as if to take a step. Then he falls or grabs on to something and the moment is over.

7. I want to start using handkerchiefs. I had been thinking for awhile about buying some to keep in my purse. I hate when I need to sneeze and have no tissue to catch the spray. Sometimes, I burst out crying for no reason. I’m a big crier. And now, surrounded my mounds of tissues from blowing my nose, I’m thinking it’s time to get some hankies!

8. I’m watching Molly Ringwald on Regis & Kelly. I absolutely love her current show, The Secret Life of the American Teenager and I am so beyond ready for a new season! I caught up on the entire thing on Hulu, where I’ll be watching it when it starts back, if we’re still at my dad’s. We so don’t have cable.

9. Speaking of living at my dad’s, can we move yet?! He’s not that bad, but we are super short on space. There is nowhere to put anything, which is a huge problem with children. Also, I’m just ready for the new life we have mapped out. We are moving a few towns over and I think it’s really going to suit us. I already have a church picked to try out, Dustin will be much closer to work, and my new business will thrive there (I’m hoping).

10. Back to hair. Sorry, but it always comes back to hair for me. I am not a highlights person. I’m just not. I had highlights a couple of different times. I’ve had blonde highlights and I’ve had reds and coppers and lowlights. I’ve also had crayola red. Of all of those, the unnatural red was the only one I cared for. I think really good highlights usually cost a ton and I still don’t really love it. I’d prefer to just have an all-over color. Luckily, even when I color my hair, all my natural dimensions shine through so it never looks dull and fake.
