I got the honor of cutting off almost a foot of Karina’s hair to donate to https://childrenwithhairloss.org/
Let’s all give this beautiful mama some support as she fights her battle with Cancer 🩷 💪🏼!!

Heading back to my 2nd home soon !!
🤠🎸🎤🎶
I still have a few appts left now through Aug 30th.
And if I don’t find a strapping cowboy like this 🤣 I have available appts starting back September 12th.
Yeehaw!!

There’s still time to get your chocolates at any local Earthmover Credit Union location!

29 years in the business and still absolutely LOVE LEARNING!! ❤️✂️🎨

I’m starting to get booked up for the holidays. Please get your appts booked early. I’d hate to not be able to get you in.
❤️✂️
In the past, I’ve made sacrifices to squeeze last minute appointments in, this holiday season is going to be a little difficult for me so I won’t be able to do that this year.
Sorry 😞
I’m choosing to put my mental health first. I’m sure you understand!
Hope to hear from you soon!

So I’ve been back at the salon long enough now that I’ve pretty much had a chance to see everyone. Yay!
It feels so good to be back doing what I love! ❤️✂️
I wanted to thank you all so much for your continued love and support through this most difficult time in my life. It truly means the world to me to those that came back after my leave. And all your texts, calls and messages never went unheard. Some I read over and over again. I feel the love and am so grateful! 🙏🏼

I also wanted to take this time to talk about me and where I’m at in my grief journey. It’s been almost 7 months since I lost my baby girl. Some days it feels like just yesterday. Some days it seems like time is going by way too fast and I hate that each day that goes by is another day to count off since I had her in my life.
But there is one thing that has gotten easier. One thing that I couldn’t do in the earlier days.
Talk about her.
❤️My Kendra❤️
I want to talk about Kendra every minute of every day. I want other people who knew Kendra to talk about her. To share memories with me about her. If you didn’t know Kendra, please ask about her! Even if I shed a tear or two or three. It’s ok! I cry regardless. It’s who I am now. I’m not ashamed to cry. Happy or sad tears. I cry in public. In stores when something reminds me of her. In my car at a stoplight when a song comes on that we used to sing together. At home when I’m alone and sad. Baby tears. Ugly tears. I am ONE. BIG. GIANT. TEAR MAKER💧
Don’t apologize for making me cry.
And you can cry around me too. Don’t be ashamed or afraid. It’s natural.
Cause those tears mean the world to me.
Tears mean Kendra was loved.
Tears mean I am loved.
And if you’re not ok talking about her that’s ok too. Everyone grieves differently. Everyone handles a griever differently.
Especially a grieving mother. Losing a child is every parents worst nightmare. No parent wants to go through what I’m going through. I thought losing my dad and sister in my 20’s was hard. I think God said “let’s try her with this one! Hold my wine!”
My faith is definitely being tested. Every day is an uphill battle. But I’m doing it. One day at a time.
So If it’s too hard for you to talk to me about my grief, I understand, maybe just a simple text to me or a ((hug)) next time you see me then.
