WTF??? Where The Heck I've Been

Okay, so saying that I'm way overdue with posts and updates is quite the understatement.  But I'll tell you what, I really appreciate the work it takes to keep up a blog!

Life has been busy and eventful, and my Sisterlocks have hung in there with me through all the life changes.  I am now six months Sisterlocked, and I'm loving the change in both texture, fullness and length.  Still think its the best decision I've ever made, and am learning that patience, much like that which you must display in life, is simply part of the journey.

Meantime, I bought a car in April, my son has been working full time for Coca Cola for at least the last four to five months now, my sister graduated from University of Phoenix with her Bachelor's in Business (Administration or Management) - can't seem to remember which one, and I'm so proud of her.  My personal life is still quite the mess, but THAT'S FITTIN' TO CHANGE (despite what some might think), the car's water pump and two belts need replacement (as of August), and I'm back in school finishing up the degree work I walked away from 27 years ago.

I've been self-maintaining since about my third month of being Sisterlocked, but still see my beautiful loctitian, Candace Smith, here in Philadelphia, every four weeks so that she can ensure I'm NOT looking crazy, and consequently, she has changed my lock pattern - mainly because my hair is rather fine and medium textured.  This new lock pattern will create more volume and less of just straight hanging locks.

I really am going to try to get better at posting more frequently.  Its almost embarrassing posting anything at this point, especially when I know so many of my favorite bloggers do so on a much more regular basis.  (BlaqKofi and Curlynugrowth, I aspire to be as devoted as you:-])  But in any event, hope you enjoy the short video attached hereto that shows my progress!  PEACE & HAIR GREASE:-0)
