Can you believe that this is my first blog of 2007?!?
I feel like such a slacker!
Well, if your January was anything like mine, you know that I was not a slacker but more busy than I could anticipate. I never thought that the slowest month for a hairstylist would turn out to be one of my busiest.
Along with teaching tons of haircolor classes, it seemed that many people were in some need of my services in January. I was definitely glad to be needed! Plus, it was great for everyone to experience the salon’s new location while it’s brand-spankin’ new. If you haven’t been in yet, I can’t wait for you to come see me.
Things have obviously been busy at work and I can’t say they’ve slowed down in any other aspect of life. I found another little part-time acting job. (That’s right. Like my husband says, I can’t just have ONE job.) Right now, I’m doubling as a spokes model for marketing and distributing firm that manufactures decorative solid surfaces (countertops). I know it sounds confusing…Bottom line is I am doing informational videos for the company. It’s fun being a spokes model. So far I’ve only done a few recordings. Hopefully they will use me for more!
On the stressful side of things, so far this year my identity has been stolen and used to spend over $10,000 with department store credit cards, a tree fell down in front of our house because of the ice storm, our dog may have to have hip replacement surgery (poor little guy!) and I *still* haven’t made it through my client list to call and update everyone with news of the location change!
However, things are looking up! I am so excited for Valentine’s Day! I have no desire to go to an overcrowded restaurant and eat an overly expensive dinner just because tradition dictates. Instead, I plan on taking in a double-feature at the movie theater. My two desired movie choices are “Because I Said So” starring Diane Keaton, Mandy Moore and Lauren Graham and “Music and Lyrics” with Drew Barrymore and Hugh Grant. My husband isn’t too excited to see two back-to-back chick flicks but it’s not too much to ask of a Valentine’s Day gift, right?
I hope you have a wonderful February (don’t forget to check out this month’s special offer) and I won’t let it go too long before my next update.
Thanks for reading….If you can, leave me a comment. I thrive off of the interaction. 🙂
Hey Donna! I hope your february isn't as busy as january because that sounded pretty nuts. I don't plan on getting my hair cut any time soon but I want to come in and see the new salon!

Hey Donna,
Your starting to act like an over achiever! LOL
I am really happy for you and all your successes.
Other than the tree the hip & your loss of identity. Sounds like things are going very well!
I will be making an appt. soon. Ohh all the colors…Which one should I pick? Joe likes the auburn, whereas, I like the blonde.
Take Care,
TTYS

Donna, Great, fun website. I knew if it was yours, it would be great. Aren;t you supposed to be taking it a little slower? All is well at SSG… but i would like my new position better if I had you back in our house (ha-ha). Best of luck in all you do, and I plan to try to stop and see you,on one of my St Louis trips.

Am I reading into Eddie Davis's comment about "taking it a little slower" the wrong way?

In response to your comment, I am not sure what way you are taking Eddie's comment. So I am unsure that you are taking it the wrong way.
:O)
