- I've reached a stage of hair abandonment. I've succeeded in abandoning both my hair and Ms. J's. I'm not keeping my TWA moisturized like I should, and I have repeatedly pushed back Ms. J's wash date for the past couple, possibly few weeks. I'm trying to rise to the occasion today by adding some moisture to my brittle strands and by giving Ms. J's curls some much needed cleansing, conditioning and box braiding. Stress is taking a toll on haircare around here. I'm actually considering cutting mine low again and starting over. Nothing wrong with that. Although I have been enjoying the play with hair accessories, I think that to be bald and beautiful yet again would just work better, and I would feel far less guilt about the neglect these curls have been enduring, and then there are the cute heart designs that I never had the chance to get cut into my caesar. We'll see.

- I did not get the position that I was up for with the agency. I was a little disappointed, but it is what it is. I can now say that I have went the agency route and still didn't get a job. So, its on to the next search, which happens to be on hold until I figure out that whole brake situation with the car. As if I really needed another thing to figure out.

- The second issue of Babygirlz Magazine is now live! We have a new interface for easier navigation and some great new articles. We have 3 guest high schoolers who dropped some great knowledge for their peers in this issue. Please encourage the young women and girls in your life to stop by and give us a stroll.

I think that's it for now. The rest of my random thoughts contain lots of frustration and irritation.

What's on your mind today?

Funny you mention going back to bald and beautiful, my mom shaved her shoulder length locks off last week and went back to rocking her bald head. She's been hair-free, care-free since I was about 3!

nothing too much going on in my world/life that warrants discussion. I got things to do and no motivation to do 'em-pretty succinct.

You're always in my thoughts for the right job-even if it means the not right now job. (Hugs)

My world hmm, fitness is on the top of my priority list. Everything else is kind of up in the air. I have obligations I need to meet that are unmet, I gotta get on the ball. But I am trying to stay positive.

I implore you to do the same. Stay positive, that right position will come, the brakes will get fixed and all will be well.

Peace.

Where is BabyGirlz? The link is not working.

@ craigjc...the Babygirlz link is http://babygirlzmagazine.com/

@ Barbara...Hey Chica. Remember when you cut it off, it was a cleansing of sorts, for you. It might be that time again with everything going on to get you a 'fresh start'. Besides that, it's gorgeous!!! Can't wait to see what you decide :-)

And the job...their loss. They didn't seem all that professional anyway so long term, you might not have wanted to deal with them. Something worthy of YOU will come up. I have no doubts about that.

Thanks Tee! I shot CraigJC an email and fixed the link in the post. Now Babygirlz can be found =).

I'm still in contemplation mode. I gave my hair some love today and I started to like it again. Part of me is so proud of this budding afro and I just don't wanna part with it, and of course the other part of me wants to rock that cut again, and shoot, since I still have room to be creative with my strands, I'm ready to get funky with it again, lol. I don't know, we'll see what I come up with =).

Thanks again for the reassurance!
