So I colored my hair tonight. In keeping with my Dave Ramsey new budgeting style (all the cool kids are doing it - haha), I have been working on cutting unnecessary expenses, and well - lets just say a ten dollar box of hair color is WAY cheaper than what I have been paying to have my hair done. I haven't done my own color in probably ten years, and to say that this made me nervous is a HUGE understatement. Now that it is done however, it is okay....maybe not my exact preference, but not horrible either. I can definitely deal with this on my way to being debt free. Also, another benefit would be that I had forgotten how silky soft my hair feels after being colored out of a box though - definitely like that part!!
I would take pictures, but - well actually, I am too lazy to do my hair at this point tonight and too vain to post a picture without having made some attempt at fixing myself up. Haha - you see my dilemma...
Classes started again this week. This would be the semester to take Corporate Finance. I haven't ever done a finance class before, but I think I am really going to like it based on what I have read so far in my textbook. The problems and homework are taking some time, but it feels like time well spent. It isn't easy, but it is fun (if that makes any sense at all!) and I think it is going to be super good for me in the long run.
I was sitting in the cafeteria at work today, eating lunch and working on homework when a lady standing in line next to my table asked what class I was studying for. Turns out she is in the same class, with the same instructor, only taking it in the classroom instead of online. She gave me her name and told me to look her up if I ever wanted to talk about class stuff. I was pretty excited to meet a fellow student, and so after lunch I went to look her up to send her an email and turns out she is a VP in our group. This is cool on a lot of different levels - most notably because I am excited about having someone to talk school with who is in the same class as me. I was also excited because I have been wanting to find a woman to mentor me at work (I have a mentor, but he works in a different part of the company and as a male really doesn't have the same perspective) - I don't know that I have even formed it into a thought out prayer, but it has been a desire of mine for some time. I don't want to assume that this will end up as that sort of relationship, but wouldn't it be just like the Lord to do that for me...even without me outright asking?
Lots of cool things have been going on over here. I need to blog more. I don't feel like I have a lot of down time right now, and there are lots of demands on my time, but I want this record of life - I want to be better about recording the journey. God is doing lots of cool stuff around here.
Later...
