Category: A Bit Of Randomness

This category is full of randomness that really doesn’t fit nicely into any of the categories having to do with my road to walking.

Love

I have been holed up in my house with my, “2 Sacreds” for a while now. I have not left my house at all! A few friends and a couple brothers have brought stuff to us. My Mom will don her mask and gloves and take her spray bottle to spray everything down and wipe them off before she brings it into the house. I really have been feeling the love from all of them and my Mom takes such good care of me!

One of my brothers came to drop groceries off this morning and once he left, this is what I saw:

As my brother, Steve, talked to my Mom through the door, he let her know that I received a present. So, my Mom put on her mask and gloves and took her spray bottle now to collect the groceries and this is what she saw:

She called through the door and as she was spraying everything down and told me what it was. She read the note that was attached to it to me:

It was an absolutely beautiful note and my heart was completely warmed!!! She wrote that there was only one package there and she bought it for me because she knows that I use that brand. I COMPLETELY felt the love from my cousinT, Shannon!

It was a package of Glide floss picks!!!:

I was so glad to receive this because my current package is running low!:

I was so happy to receive this that I texted her right away:

I am the green and the Bitmoji. I am so happy and I really feel the love even though I haven’t left my house at all throughout all of this! 💜💜💜

Overheated

I blowdried my hair today and I had to take an, “Intermission” in the middle of the process because now that my hair is close to 2 inches longer, it takes longer to blow dry and I get overheated. I cut my hair to it’s current length just over 12 years ago on my 26th birthday.

It became abundantly clear to me why I did this just over 12 years ago. Long hair is way too hard to keep up! Sean laughed when I tossed my hair because it is so long! He told me last week it was like an inch longer than normal. The last haircut I had, had to have been in mid February. I didn’t make a March appointment because that was just when things were starting to ramp up. I canceled a cleaning appointment I had with the dentist because things were just starting to get bad.

It is imperative that I take all of these developments seriously because my immune system is compromised. My Mom has offered to cut my hair for me because the drying took so long but I just laughed and in declined the offer. Christina has been waxing my eyebrows and cutting my hair for the past 17 years and pandemic or not, I am NOT going to change that! Because of that fact, I will just let my eyebrows grow (Like I am) and my hair along with it! I will just have to to take breaks while blow drying my hair and deal with my pink face and fatigue caused by me becoming overheated.

The BEST Tweet Notification EVER!!!

I received a tweet notification this afternoon:

It was the BEST tweet notification ever! And one that I really was happy to receive and read! I’ve been missing them so badly! My daily routine has been completely confused and overturned because I cannot watch them every weekday morning!!!

It took me a minute of Sean NOT being in school, being locked down, and my Mom coming to stay with me for me to realize that that was what was going on! She actually told me what was going on and why I was completely off kilter. All I have of them now is a bleached shirt and great memories of laughing!

I replied to the tweet with this:

I cannot wait for this all to be over and for them to be back on TV!!!

My The Office Binge: Day 21

I continued my binge today and laughed at Pam slapping Michael after work for dating her mom, Breaking up with her on her birthday, and talking smack. But then there was the murder and the southern accents…

Michael got the email from David Wallace about Dunder Mifflin possibly going under. He found some solace by playing music lovely in his office:

I know that I am super late to the party but I’m really diggin’ this show!

My The Office Binge Day 22

I got to the Christmas episode for season six today. My Mom wants to watch a movie so I stopped my bins but there were a couple of things I dug in the last episode though!

The first thing is that I finally understand where Pam telling the camera, “Yup” comes from. It’s the Christmas episode of season six!

I use that GIF all the time on Twitter! So much of everything I’ve seen this far in the show makes me laugh so much! But I think this one got a pretty big one when Kevin sang this song on the karaoke machine:

A Ponytail

So, I cut my hair short on my 26th birthday. I remember one day when I was working out at Barwis with Jesse back in 2013 and I was laying on the turf on my back. It was a little bit warm in there and I pulled my hair back as if I was pulling it into a ponytail. Back then, my hair was so short that I told Jesse that, “I really miss having a ponytail!” as my hair just fell to the sides of my head because it wasn’t long enough to be in a ponytail.

With the quarantine, I figured out that I must have gotten my eyebrows waxed and my hair cut back in mid-February because I didn’t get one in March because that’s when things start to get serious. I had Sean take a picture because I couldn’t believe it myself!:

He took a few pictures to show how long my hair has gotten. And it has gotten so long that:

There it is! My ponytail! Something that I haven’t had in the past 12 years! I wonder how long my hair will grow till I can get it cut. I don’t have any ponytail holders now but I didn’t keep it all pulled back even though it can be. I will often toss my hair back over my shoulders with either one of my hands and Sean and my Mom will just shake their heads.

Yesterday, right after I blowdried my hair, I sat in my kitchen with Sean and I tossed to my head back and flipped my hair over my shoulder with my left hand as I told him that he may not recognize me because my hair is so long! He kind of snorted at that but I know it’s true! If I had a ponytail holder, I probably would use it pretty soon.
