SPRING!! (and...a little more about me personally)

Yay! It is finally Spring!! I am so happy! And with spring comes exciting things! Firstly, I am so elated that the weather is finally warm! I NEED the sun and the warmth to be a happy. The Winter dragged on .....and on...

I am almost done with school! This is something I have working on for severalllllll years. The second I am done, I am going to feel a sense of accomplishment. Something I have accomplished that was not easy for me. Currently I am in the process of looking for a place to do my hours; I'll only need 2000 I believe. I choose to take these steps one day at a time or it gets overwhelming.

I have been trying to get my youtube channel more active because I work very hard on each video and artwork I put out. I so wish it was my full time job. I love working with photoshop and final cut. I am mostly self taught. I had a few classes in premiere. Long story short,  could not get a loan for a second bachelor's degree (in graphic art/design) because I already have a Bachelor's in Psychology. In order to get a school loan I had to continue working towards a master's program. I was actually excited because I thought I wanted to be an elementary school  teacher but after four classes I changed my mind yet again! I changed my mind again! I decided back to counseling.

Going back to growing my youtbube channel. I have goals! I have places to go, people to see, lol...not really, I just really wish the dreams I have been working on these past years will guide me to exactly where I am supposed to be. Which I have full faith that it will. On my channel you will find me explining how to color your hair or how to cut layers, but I notice that in trying so hard to not make it boring, my videos have been boring. Which is why I am now working on trying to show my personality more. As shy as I am, I have no idea how I even began a youtube channel. I have a lot of things to teach, I feel that my content is intersting, I just have to work on making it fun!

Well, this post came out a bit different than I intended, lol.

I will leave you with my latest video. It is my Spring hair! I took my hair from dark brown to a lighter rose gold shade. I added layers and show you a quick style using a curling wand. Click here

Hope you like it! Thanks so much for all your support!

WOW! It's March!

I cannot BELIEVE it's March! Where has the time gone?! I swear my time is flying faster and faster. I have about three more classes in school and I'm already supposed to have a place to get my hours. All 2000 hours and 3 years supervised counseling. Sounds like it should go by fast, and it will! Just like my life is! I figured out what area i want to focus on. I've been meditating to a guided meditation on Youtube by Lilian Eden. She is a hypnotherapist. This is EXACTLY what I want to do! It's finally coming together.  These past few months I have been trying to figure out what I want to do because I have a lot of things I want to accomplish. Things like I want to grow my youtube channel (have been trying for years, lol), trying to finish homework, shooting/editing  videos (my dream job), working on photoshop artwork (my dream job) of course being a good mom is on the top of that list! ;))

Hope you all are well and enjoying your life. Just remember, I have to remind myself constantly, be happy. Trust me, find what makes you happy. We are all on that quest, we all want to be happy. I hope you find what makes you happy....When momma's happy, everyone is happy!  

Happy New Year 2015!!!

Hello ;))

Hope you all are doing well! I cannot believe that it is 2015! Not sure about you all but my time is flying by! We had a nice winter break. We went ice skating and I have no idea how to ice skate! The wall and I became really good friends! lol Next time I am taking someone that can show my son a good time 'cause he was at the wall with me when his poor uncle couldn't help him. His uncle (the one that can ice skate) was skating around trying to help all the kids... poor guy lol. Afterwards they had a great time at Monster Golf. Interesting way to play golf indoors.. in the dark!

So everyone went back to school, including me! I had a break as well. It was an AMAZING 2 weeks!! I was so happy to just be free not to worry about getting up at 6 am after not sleeping enough (mostly my fault).. I don't mean to complain I just wanted to express how GREAT it was to not do anything!

I finally figured out what I want to do. Yes, I am going to school for addiction counseling. I initially wanted to be a psychologist but honestly I am so tired of school and I cant' make it much longer. Yes, I am proud of myself because I honestly never thought I would even go back to school after all these years. But six years ago when a prego Sandy couldn't take another day of doing hair, that last stressful Saturday I decided never again. I thought I was over hair! I was mistaken. I decided that I couldn't just sit at home and do nothing, so I decided, GO BACK TO SCHOOL! I did so and I also decided to record me doing hair and makeup and uploading them on to Youtube! Both choices I am so happy about!

I have so many dreams...I will begin with what I wrote above because I do have to go now and I don't want to rush my story...

Thanks for taking the time to read this. I hope you will continue to read my future posts...

Hi Friends!

I hope you all are doing well. I have a job interview tomorrow! I am excited and of course nervous. I am nervous not because I don't believe in myself, I am nervous because I get this way when I am placed in new situations and new people. So how to prepare? Am I supposed to bring my resume even though she has mine (from an email)? This is a great question to ask Terri. She knows all about this. So, aside from being nervous... I am excited! I know everything happens for a reason...

Here are some pics from this week...

 My hair is getting long...

 Woke up to this beautiful sky earlier this week! This picture does not do it justice!

 Last minute Halloween costume idea. Video How to on my channel, it was so easy!

 These last 2 pics were taken with my phone...It's getting harder to get a shot of my whole hair...lol

Have a great week Friends!! Love you all...

It's November!!

I cannot believe it's November again. These months are just flowing past! I have a couple more videos that I've done on my youtube channel linked here:

and

I've been so busy trying to be a mom, go to school, learn a new video editing program ( I did it and love it!), do clients (wish I was busier in that department), and life in general. Trying, since 2009, to get my Youtube channel off the ground. I invested my IRA (and some $ borrowed from my mom) to get an online business going. The horrible truth about VANGUARD will be in my next post. This company made promises and just stole hard earned money. Do not do business with VANGUARD.

On a more positive note, the kids are healthy. I am healthy. And when no one else sees the potential in you, you have to work harder and prove to them that you can succeed. This will make me stronger.

...light will prevail... 

Thank you to all that have believed and supported me!

~love~ Sandy

Back to School!...and more goodies

Hello Friends!

Well Summer 2014 is officially over and back to school is our reality. Why does our Summer always seem to go by so fast? Well most likely because of the feeling we get when it's Summer. We are happy because it means no more getting up early, no more homework, no more worrying about tests...etc... But we can psych ourselves into feeling this way about school days also. For mommies that stay at home or work from home, "back to school" gives us time to first relax for a few minutes without "mommy, I'm hungry. mommy, can you make this or mommy, that" (I know I feel bad/guilty even thinking this but it is true). Then after we have met our girls for coffee or had a bit of private time then we can get on with our work. We can use this time to be productive. I believe it's all a matter of how you look at things. I know, "think positive, never negative"...but it is true. I have found that since I have stopped worrying and thought more positively, things in my life have begun to change. I think I'm on to something. I watched this show with Joan Rivers and her daughter, Melissa, when she was on her way for surgery and her words rang true to me. I am not quoting but she said something to the effect of... Remember Melissa,  this life is just one big movie. I have been doing a lot of soul searching lately and have been learning from a lot of people. People like, Manithyasudevi, truth me free, Kelli in the Raw...there are more but at the moment I can't think of them...So I am in the middle of finding "my truth" because I feel like it is different for everyone. How did this get from being the end of Summer blog to things that are a bit more personal. Did not mean that, lol

My main  point is to take your days one day at a time, try to think positive about situations that are not always fun, remember that the not so nice days are there so we can be more grateful for the Awesome days!
