Sangamon County

I headed back to Dad's after leaving Mollis and spent several days with him. He worked on cars, and I worked on getting my shit together to return home to Illinois. We had the house all to ourselves since Dee and the kids flew to Arizona to see Acie graduate from Intelligence Analyst Training. It was nice to have him all to myself for a little bit. He reinforced my pole hooks in my van that all pulled out through he steel ribs that Eric, Michelle's friend, had installed poorly. We ate great food and enjoyed eachothers company, laughed more than ever, and it was really sad saying, "See you later." But I made my way up north on Wednesday the 2nd.

I booked a cheap $40 AirBnb in Paducah for the night, and had my hair appointment with Taryn in St. Louis the following day. We did my Brazilian Blowout and caught up on everything over the past 4 months. It took us about 2.5 hours and then I headed for Springfield, stopping for sushi along the way.

It was awesome to see my mom and Gayland when I got home. I immediately unpacked the van and put all my stuff away so I could get started on making more tie dyes before time to return to Mexico! I booked flights for the end of March through mid-April. My friend Michael was roaming around Mexico around the same time as I was and had found these friendship bracelets extremely cheap to sell on tour. They are bright, multi-colored, various widths and would be a perfect addition to my tie dye booth. These bracelets would give me something to offer for only a few bucks, just exactly what I need to have something cheap for little children with only a few dollars to spend, so they can have a shopping experience, too. Currently the cheapest items in my booth are bandanas for $10. So, I am stoked to go down there and source these beauties! I'm also planning to bring all kinds of new tie dyes to do jungle/beach photoshoots for social media and my online store.

I just finished working out with Gayland at his gym, Pure Performance in downtown Springfield and we are almost back home. Here I go to lay down some more colors!! I have a long day of dyeing ahead of me. About 65 more pieces to color for today!!!Okumaya devam et
