I’d better have something for you to comment about!   Thanks to everyone who emailed me about my hair color!  It was a hard decision and one that I have been contemplating for years … no maintenance!  However, I am afraid I MAY have waited too long … the darker color shows the gray hairs I am getting (in a patch right in front, no less).  Right now, there aren’t enough to worry about ~ nothing a little plucking can’t handle!

I have been asked to be the "Teacher Lead" at the store.  I am excited for this opportunity!  I know our classes are the best around and know I can make a great contribution.  That means I get to work on the class calendar for next quarter!  We have a graphic designer who will do the actual layout, but I will feed her all the written info.  COOL!

I was invited to attend CHA with a friend.  Shayna, a former AMM designer (Studio Collection) has started her own line and it will be unveiled at CHA.  My friend asked if I would want to go and work her booth.  But, I am teaching on the day we would leave and the day we would come home … thanks to you, my classes are full and are a success, so I am GLADLY staying home to teach them! 

I am HUMBLED by your support and excitement for my classes.  It’s a weird feeling designing classes … because the designs are a bit of me, but they are not for me, they are for you!  I am truly grateful to you for your support (I can’t say it enough) when I teach a class, read a comment on the blog, or get an email, you brighten my day!  Things have been really emotional lately (I cry all through the news) and almost every day I have one of you contact me and lift my spirits.  Thank you.

I have decided that I need to share more of myself with you.  I have always tried to be as open as possible, but in all relationships, I’ve kept my guard up.  (You know, things in the past and all)  I feel like I have been fairly sterile in my posts and you don’t always get to see the "Real" me.  I wonder if you are interested in the mundane, everyday things around here … A WARNING:  THEY ARE NOT PERFECT! … but I have decided that I need to share more of those along with the "business" aspects of my life!  I have also been really guarded with my children and have not wanted to share too much (there are perverts out there, you know!) … so if this is a No Perverts Allowed blog!  😉  I hope you don’t mind!  TTFN!  *A*

p.s.  Did I make ANY sense or did I just ramble??  Did I get too sappy?
