The Good and the Bad

Today was an okay day.  I dropped Aida off at daycare and she was actually awake, which is rare.  No matter how early I have her in bed, she never goes to sleep until around 10:30 or 11:00 at night. There were a few people that actually warned me about this happening. I am a night owl and so is her dad. Every now and then she will admit that is sleepy...it is not very often. Anyway, I am anxious for the weekend. I placed an order for some Fresh Moroccan Henna and Indigo. I really want my hair to be dark again and I want to do some mini twists. I really want to try to wear a protective style at least for a couple of weeks to give my hair a break. I plan on doing some layouts/blog posts about my natural hair journey. I am glad I got rid of the rest of my permed ends last November. My hair is the same length as it was before and still growing. I am ELATED about that of course.

Decisions

This weekend has been quite uneventful....and I welcomed it with WIDE OPEN arms.  I really needed some rest after this week.  I felt much more tired than normal and just did not feel like going anywhere. Plus, my guy had to work, so it'd be just us girls on Saturday. We did a little shopping. Of course, I had to pick up my copy of the Hunger Games movie. I actually enjoyed the movie, even after reading the books. The movie seemed rushed in some places but overall it was good; I did not expect to see each and every scene that I thought was important so that kind of ruled out some of the disappointment for me. I have not watched it at home yet, so that could change...lol!!

Love this lens!

As usual- I was scanning through my many of photos looking for a couple to use on a scrapbook page--and I came across a set of January of this year. I keep saying I am going to do a then and now photo post just to see how I have progressed but when I look through all the photos I have taken, I am discouraged by the hits & misses. I do love the photos I am sharing...something I have not said in a while.  I used the Canon 50 mm f/1.4 ..and I have to say...I love the creamy bokeh of this lens (almost as much as the 85 mm).

My Little Student

Today I really just have a page to share. I am worn out and a very bad migraine started as I was getting ready to leave work today. I could barely see. It was like my eyes were have a "dropped call" I guess you can say. I could see but it was pretty sketchy. I remember the first time it happened and I freaked out. I was working part time in Medical Records of a local hospital; there were only 2 of us there on the weekend and it was pretty early in the morning (before 7 am) - had to be there at 6 am I believe. I was sitting down waiting on the computer to load and all of a sudden I was having trouble seeing. I just laid my head down and asked myself and God if this really could be happening. I was really scared...had no idea what to do. A few minutes later, things started to clear up but I started developing a monster of a headache. That was the first time I ever remembered having that much vision trouble with a migraine. Scarryy!
