Hey Curls,
OMG! The hard part is over! The hard part was sacrificing 30-35 hours a week in school when I needed to be doing oh so many other things! Sacrificing time with my three little ones was tough but they were always in good hands with my Mom, Hubby or Dad or sister. Originally the program was to be 12 months but then I transferred schools, had a baby and ended up 5 months behind but that is neither here nor there>>>I did it!
Hey Chicas,
OMG! (gawddddd) I have totally missed you guys! Continue reading Where is Ginny and what I’ve been doing @ Cosmetology School!
