She’s alive!

We can all use this picture to visualize me coming back online. I need it just as much as you… my eye hurts!

I had planned for this picture to represent a new beginning, and it does… just a bit slower than I want. Now that the surgeries are done, I want to be out on the trail again but have to be more patient with my own recovery. I’m super sensitive to light and this eye is more painful than the other one was, for some reason. I want to be up and at em, but it’s not even been 24 hours since my procedure, so maybe I should cut myself some slack.

This process has been such an amazing experience, blended with cabin fever, boredom and frustration at having to sideline my study time and writing… not to mention having to hold off on my trail walks.

I am grateful to announce that I was NOT sporting any unsightly facial hairs or growths, that I’m aware of… thank you Lord for these small favors! My hair, on the other hand, is hideous! My sweet friend is taking me to get it cut and colored for my birthday, and I am seriously considering cutting most of it off and changing my color completely. It is only hair… and it will grow back, so why not?!

New Year… New Look!

Maybe I should do a short cut like this one…

Here are some color ideas…

Whatever I choose to do will be in the F U N Department!!!

If you had an opportunity to do your hair any way you wish that is different from your usual, what would it be?

Go big or go home I suppose…

Here, have a cookie…
