Wow how time flies and hair grows!!!

Thank God for pictures or else how would we know just how far we've come???  I look back at my hair pics and WOW!  my hair has really grown over the past few months!  See comparison pics below.

Thanks for following my blog!  I'm feeling much better now. I was in a sad place - but it's better now.  Life can be so unpredictable and I have to learn to roll with the punches, get up and keep it moving!  I can laugh about it now, but a couple of weeks ago?  not so much...

Anyway, here are my pics from installation and now.

Peace and Blessings,
Evie

Well...

I guess I'm feeling happy, content and well... lonely.  How can that be? 

Well, I'm happy that things are going well for my son and his girlfriend.  Her health had been challenged lately, but all is well.  My son will begin a new adventure in his life and it is a life long dream of his, so he is beyond happy! 

As far as content... well my job is going well, things are good and I am content. 

Lonely?  Yes, I am.  I need to reinvent myself I think.  I keep hearing about the new movie/book Eat Pray Love and I wonder how I can incorporate those things into my life?  I've got eating under control... I eat too much!  LOL!  But, I am learning to appreciate flavors, sensations and ingredients for their individual value to each bite.  Instead of gobbling my food, I'm enjoying the taste, the flavor, the texture, the meaning of each grain, seasoning, etc.  Pray?  I pray all the time.  At least I thought I did.  Then I challenged myself to look at my prayer life, and realized that I don't pray as much as I used to.  Love?  I talked to an old friend, and I heard myself - bitter and angry.  I realized that I wasn't ready for love nor was I looking for love.  I had given up.  Who?  What?  Me?  YUP!  I had given up on love. 

I am now trying to come up with a new resolution to the problem..  Diagnose the situation, evaluate the conditions and see if I am willing to open myself up to finding love at this point in my life.  Does it actually exist for real people?  Who will love me with all my scars?  Wow, where oh where did this come from?

Well, this blog has NOTHING to do with my hair and everything to do with my LIFE!  Or, are they inexplicably intertwined?  My hair, My life? 

Who knows?
Stay tuned...

by the way, since this blog is supposed to be about my life and my hair, here are a few updated pics.
