  • I’m…wait for it… happy

    WOOOOAH. it’s been going on for the better part of two weeks now. yes, there have been stones in the road that spectacularly took me down, but I’m just graceful like that. and bumbles bounce. still, even though there are times when I think, “uh oh, I’m down– will I come back up?” I do. !!

    and why? it’s work. not hard work, sweat of your brow, industry– but going to work, having lovely interactions with my clients, doing something creative. I’ve been coming home happy, even if I haven’t left home happy. I’m not dreading going in anymore, and I had been.

    I did my sister’s wedding hair. it was hot-rollered and put in a french twist with just a few curls spilling out along the crease. and she asked me to CUT HER BANGS… the horror. but they were PERFECT and it was all beautiful! the bangs NEVER MOVED (sideswept longish fringe). all through the evening I kept looking at her hair thinking, “that’s gorgeous; I did that!”

    (eventually someone will send me some pics that I can post…)

  • ryc:  The grass thing is very Far East. I stayed in a hotel in Bali where to get to the first floor (second floor to you) you had to walk across stepping stones in a little pool planted with tall grass and the entrance to the hotel had huge pots of it either side.  In the next hotel I stayed in, in Bangkok, it was not just huge pots of grass, but ones planted with lotus as well, that was lovely.

    Your blog made me think of this song,

  • So you’re saying there’s hope? Woohoo!

  • Who woulda thunk that work could make someone happy?  When you get a finished product that you can say “I did that”, yeah….that’s way cool.
