4/26-27 Learned this

 So lastnight since I was wiped when I went to sleep after a full day at school and talking things over with the roomie about a spat we got into the week before and going to the gym thereafter... I didn't get a chance to post but learned a lot.

4/26 At school I learned how to do fingerwaves and that they are extremely difficult, thermal straightening which is very tedious yet effective and I also got a 100 on my Anatomy and physiology exam which is the last exam of my cosmetology career before we start reviewing for state boards, I also got a review on our past Salon Building presentation and my teacher told me my presentation skills were outstanding and I really "took charge" which was a huge compliment being I could not public speak even a year ago and now I'm starting to enjoy it.  After school my roommate (lets call her Jan)  and I talked and really got to work to the bottom of everything that was hinder our friendship and relationship of living together. I wrote everything down prior to this confrontational meeting and found it really kept things from getting irrational and emotional but kept us focused on efficient with our time. I've been really convicted of how I use my time lately and setting time limits on EVERYTHING in including conversations, coffee dates, ect; have proved to be very successful and allowed me to keep my priorities straight.  I will be honest in saying in this confrontation with Jan it took me a week to get to the point of being able to talk it out. After I forgave her a few days ago I was finally able to find the worth in the situation and how we could each grow from it. I realized living with another person is like getting microdermabrasion and bringing all the junk to the surface... the good and the bad stuff. Everything in the past, the way one was brought up and how they handle everyday situations is evident in the home. I realized I tend to kind of mentally analyze when I come home instead of discuss my day in vivid detail. I went to sleep this night very invigorated and ready to tackle today.

4/27: Today I went for a run only find out how miserable my runs are becoming.. not sure why but could be due to my strength training/sleep/ not much time to run anymore. My first client was a sweet woman who had celiac disease and many health conditions, as well as going through a divorce, having her house foreclosed and starting a new job... it was at that moment I was reminded how absolutely blessed I am to have even a part of these people's lives while they are in my chair. It is not about me but about them and how I can serve them.

later we took a client for a single color who was a school teacher and we helped price all the retail. I finished the night talking with the bf and now I'm here far past the bed time I had intended but once again that's life and we start school an hour earlier.

I'm realizing after writing my daily doings my life is a lot more full of God's little surprises than I would of imagined. Life is too beautiful to oversee the small things.
