My life revolves around my hair... Part 2

My life revolves around my hair… Part 2

I wrote about this back in May 2015 and it appears that my life hasn’t changed much with regards to my hair. I just now found myself planning my next 2 hair washings based on (a) when I washed my hair last and (b) when I need to have my hair freshly washed for the vacation I’m about to take. Today is Sunday October 24th. I leave to spend some time with my sister at 6am on Saturday Nov 6th. That…

September 2019 - New flat... who dis?

September 2019 – New flat… who dis?

LOL I crack myself up! Well, after Pioneer School, Brittany returned home to Ohio and I was all set to move in with my friend Hilary. But first, I spent a few days in an Airbnb smack in the center of town with some friends that were visiting from Ohio. It was lovely. I didn’t have to take a bus to my metro shift. It was just a few minutes walk. There as a some pics of the outing we had through…

August 2019 Part 3 – Scottish Highlands road trip & Pioneer Service School

Our little road trip had some lovely stops… the first of which was a little golf pilgrimage. We went to the St. Andrew’s Old Course. Terry hadto take a photo on the “Swilcan Bridge” and we got a few souvenirs for some of our gold enthusiast friends back home in Ohio. Got some great pics at Dunnottar Castle. Photos from the golf course and castle are after the 3rd paragraph with the other photos…

July 2019 Part 2 - London & Edinburgh

July 2019 Part 2 – London & Edinburgh

As previously mentioned, we left Paris for London Tuesday morning instead of Monday night, as planned. Le sigh! We had a Bible tour of the British Museum scheduled for 10 am but our flight was now arriving a little past 7 am and we couldn’t take our luggage into the museum. We had to leave our stuff somewhere but didn’t really want to pay for storage at a tube station. Also, we were kinda gross…

July 2019 Part 1...adventures in Paris!

July 2019 Part 1…adventures in Paris!

Once my friend, Eve, went home to Ohio, I got new visitors. Kiersten and Anna from California. So it was cheaper for them to fly into Paris, so I met them there. Brittany was also supposed to come but she had a different flight. She got stuck in Birmingham and had to go back to Edinburgh in the end. That was a hot mess of a situation.

Anyway, we left the airport, got on the metro and after 2…

Let me tell you about a little trip that I took…

In May, I told you all that I was going to Scotland for an extended stay, nearly 6 months. I also told you that I would be posting every few weeks while I was over there.

Haha sorry. I really did think I was going to post while I was away. Well, here’s the thing… I wasn’t exactly on vacation. I’ve posted on past trips but they were legit vacations. I was essentially living in Scotland (with a…

So I signed up for this thing…

So my roommate has been an independent consultant for Arbonne for almost 2 years (I think). I have been a Preferred Client for a while… for the discount. I like discounts. And I like the products.

Now I’m home from my stint in Scotland (yes I know I haven’t posted about that because I’m a terrible blogger. I promise I’ll get to it.) I am realizing a few things.

1) I need to eat better. A lot of…

I'm a terrible blogger!

I’m a terrible blogger!

Hey y’all! Remember how I said I was going to blog every other week about my living in Scotland? And do you notice how many times I’ve posted in the nearly 3 months thay I’ve been here? 0!

I didn’t realize how busy I’d be while I’m here. I don’t really know why I thought it’d be easy to blog while I’m here, as if I was on vacation. I’m living here. I still have to work, go out in the ministry, go…
