Hair Cut!!!! Pictures!!!!!!
Today was a good day! =)
I talked to my little sister on the phone for 2 hours and she has SO MUCH insight to only be 20! She made me realize a few things about myself, my issues, insecurities I'm facing right now, etc. It was very helpful and lifted my mood!
I started the day out bein' a little quiet and insecure and was going to cancel my hair cut. But by the time it was time to "do the deed"...she had perked me right up! I walked in with confidence and smiled as she cut it off! It actually wasn't a big cut b/c it was just below my shoulders. But it makes a huge difference and I left there pretty happy and stoked to have bangs again! then after I fixed it at home, I was even happier!
Also treated myself to a pedicure and it's insane that two physical things as simple as that could make me feel so much better about myself. It's almost like I felt like my old self.
I realized today that w/ my mind going scatter-brained all the time, I need to make sure to refocus...only think of 1 issue at a time and try to fix it. When I think of, or dwell on, all my pitfalls at once it's overwhelming...for anyone.
I also realized today that I'm going to S TOP leaning on my loved ones sooo much. I feel so attached to them for my emotional well-being that I send out text updates if I'm feeling; blue, happy, confident, or any other update on anything in my life changing for the better or worse. I thought (for the first time) very recently, that "maybe these people don't wanna hear 24/7 updates on how I am or am not doing in my life. Maybe, just maybe...it can be too much for them. Maybe...I am expecting too much of them to ALL constantly cheer me on or celebrate or listen to my sorrows." So...I'm resolving to TRY to confine the majority of my worries or negativity to therapy!
Speaking of therapy; my appt got moved up to Monday! Yay! Sooner than later! That's mucho mucho mucho mucho VERY exciting! Just gotta make it through the weekend and come Monday I've got a 90 min appt to just...let it all out! Yay! On Valentine's no less, lol!
So here's a pic of my new 'do:
This morning:
And for Valentine's?? L and I are "staying in" with a fire, he's cooking for me, there better be roses involved and a good red wine! I will probably demand classical music or jazz, lol...and (if I have my way) I'd prefer to end the night cuddled in bed watching Lord of the Ring! =) Cheers! Here's for hopin'!
