Sheena...a BSU Bronco?

So I graduated from college a few years ago...wow, almost 4 years ago now. And well, I really haven't used my degree at all. (Not that it bothers me that much, but I'm not thinking that my current career is something that I want to continue doing for the next 31 years.) After some thought, I've decided to go back to school this fall to pursue a second bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. I had always said that teaching was my second choice of a career, and the best teachers that I had were my 4th, 5th and 6th grade teachers...so that's what I'm going to try to do. I have applied to Boise State University for the Fall 2009 semester, and plan to take 9 credits each semester. I'm crossing my fingers that I may be able to get some sort of scholarship money, so wish me luck on that! I'll keep everyone posted with the latest school news.

So the mummy wrap is not a hot look for me...

So it's been a week or two since I last wrote anything on here, but a lot has happened in that time! I went in this past Monday (12/29) to have Mohs micrographic surgery. What's that, you ask? Well, it turns out that all of my sunbathing (ha!) in Arizona left me with a mole that had some of those nasty c-cells in it. And with the mole being on the left side of my head, on my scalp...well, the dermatologist decided to be nice and not just gouge a big hole in my head. So, I had this fancy, LONG procedure where they slice and dice a bit of skin...well, I'll spare you the details. After I spent several hours in their office, they stitched me up with 18 (yep, I said 18) stitches. 3 of those are deep stitches that will dissolve, but 15 of them were 'baseball' stitched on the side of my head. And because any cuts on your head bleed more...I was sent home with my head in a mummy wrap. (You'll notice that there is no photograph accompanying this post...as it says in the title, it's not a good look for me!) I wish I was kidding, but no, I really had all of my head wrapped (the only open area was from my eyelids to my chin). I did get to shed my wrap after 48 hours, but it still has to be bandaged twice a day. And by notice of the evil doc, I cannot use ANY hair products for at least another week. (If you know me well, you'll realize how much this freaked me out...I had to box up the volumizers, hairspray, etc. and send it to my parents' house.) Yeah, so try covering a 1" x 2" bandage when you already have fine hair, and can't use any hairspray...after a small meltdown and trip to check out hair extensions, I think I'm dealing with it. (My mom talked me out of the $70 hair extensions for now.)

That's the latest with me...
