risky business

Guys I died my hair brown! This is a big deal for me. I have always been a big wuss when it comes to changing my hair. The most daring thing I have ever done was get bangs. And they weren't even full on bangs. They were side swept bangs. But I have been blonde my entire life and I was kinda bored of it. So bam. I did it. It's not too dark, but it's a perfect little change. Thanks to Jessica for making me do it instead of wussing out. I am quite liking it. I may be dark for a little while!

It's my third day of official summer vacation and I'm not bored yet, but I am still not used to not having anything to do. I slept in until 8 today and panicked when I woke up. It took me a minute to realize I could sleep all day it wouldn't matter. That's weird to get used to. I am making a daily list of things I need to do to keep me from going insane. Luckily, I haven't even started my thank you cards and I have a lot of fun projects for Jessi's wedding to keep my busy.

I have also decided to start Yoga this summer. I was hesitant to do this. Because, to be honest, I have always made fun of "yoga people" and there is a certain stigma that goes along with it. But when researching things to help with my anxiety and yoga is always on there. So I got a yoga DVD specific for anxiety and relaxation and let me tell you guys, even after just a few sessions, I am a believer! Not only is it relieving my anxiety, but it is helping my with lower back pain, making me more flexible, and I am sleeping like a freaking baby angel. I made Nathan try it with me last night because he is always complaining of back, neck, and shoulder pain. He thought it was kinda funny but he told me today his back is feeling way better. So there ya go. I love yoga. Although it is hard not to laugh when they say things like "inner smile" or make you chant "om" while you breathe. Those parts I don't really buy into, but all in all, it's helping quite a bit so far.

I don't really have anything else to share. My days are going to get more and more boring. If you need anything done, I'll even come into your house and clean in. Man I need a dog.. or a baby. Or both. Just kidding. (Not).
