Halloween Residue

November 1, 2012

I actually wrote this last night and I just finished working out all of the kinks so the dates are all crazy. :-/
HI ALL!!!
BABY Josthann and I are coming to you today with a little bit of Randomness and excitement!
Today was a very busy day. I voted, which i will get to in a minute, I made a custom wig with virgin hair extensions for one of my clients who ,literally, lets me have my way with her hair,

 and then I went to work. Which was great, as usual. I got so much positive feedback about my blog!! Ive always considered myself "The HaPPY sTYLIST" but its really beginning to catch on.
Anyway, about my experience with voting...
Cut to last night...
Halloween NIght, I went to the Haunted House with my boyfriend and two of my bffs (I have 3) Jeremy and Nia. We paid 18 dollars for 2 haunts and waited in line for 2 and a half hours, we complained a little but besides Jeremy and I being a little leary about going inside, we Never even considered leaving!!
But OHHHHH TOday,
Today was the last day for early voting and next Tuesday Novemeber 6, I anticipate being at work pretty late so I wont have a chance to get out to the polls so I went today. I Called myself going to a little church around the corner from my house that I THOUGHT nobody knew hosted early voting. BOY, WAS I WRONG??? The line was soooooo looonnnnggggg and for a millisecond, I thought about leaving. But then I thought to myself, " Are you serious?!!?!? YOU PAID SOMEBODY TO MAKE YOU STAND IN LINE FOR 2 AND A HALF HOURS TO SCARE THE SHIT OUT OF YOU WITHOUT A SECOND THOUGHT , BUT YOU WON'T STAND IN A LINE THAT'S NOT EVEN HALF AS LONG TO EXCERCISE YOUR RIGHT TO VOTE??" YOU'RE AN IDIOT!" So, after the little pep talk I gave myself, I stayed and it actually wasnt so bad. I may have been in line about 50 minutes and I felt amazing afterwards!!
While I have your attention, I'd like to address something else.
Whatever it is that you have, Be grateful for it! Not only because there are people out there who have less but because it is yours. I read somewhere that When you're constantly looking at what everyone else has and not what you have, YOU'LL NEVER have anything. But, as long as you're grateful for the things that you do have, YOU'LL ALWAYS more than enough. I know I didnt quote that correctly but that's what I got from it. I would like, more than anything, to be a homeowner but I live well and I work hard and I have nice things and hopefully, If I continue to work on my credit score and make good decisions, I will have an Amazing home, soon. I don't drive a fancy car but I have a reliable vehicle that doesnt require much maintence, which is what I need and it takes me ANYWHERE I need to be. Everyone in my space loves me and does a great job of showing it. Even Baby Josthann who is currently showering me with all the sugar and wiping the leftovers from his ice cream sandwich all over my face! LOL I love this kid!! Anyways, I just want encourage you to be grateful for all of things that you have because you do deserve it all and much more and with hard work and the sowing of good seeds, you'll get whatever your heart desires.

Your Happy Stylist

  1. I would like to start off by telling you that you are absolutely nuts and I love you for it. You really aren't nuts, you just know how to make people laugh. It always amazes me to watch how the human mind and spirit work and I am truly proud of how comfortable you are with being yourself and sharing your thoughts and ideas in any situation (not that you need my appraisal - just wanted you to know). It is a characteristic that I admire and wish everyone possessed. In addition to that, you are an extraordinary stylist that loves what you do, which is awesome for a person like me.

    Oh yeah and the wig, FANTABULOUS!!!!

    Keep blogging, it's a wonderful way to share your thoughts and what I consider a new way of journaling!
