I have always been a fan of lists. I am a freak when it comes to organization, if I could organize things for a living I would do it in a heartbeat. I make to-do lists, grocery lists, daily lists, travel lists and life lists. About 10 years ago I made a life bucket list. This list contains places I want to visit, things I want to experience, activities I want to participate in and goals I want to achieve. Recently I was thinking about my list and realized I had donating my hair to locks of love as one of the things on it. What a better time than to do it now. Since my hair might start falling out anyways might as well rock a short hair cut until it does and help a cause in need while I am at it. I downloaded the form for the donation and made an appointment at the Charles Ifgren salon right away. The night before I cut it Bar and I decided to relax and enjoy our night by taking Kiaan to the Buckingham fountain for the first time and having a picnic. It was such a beautiful night to be outside and just relax. I also wanted one more picture with my long hair to complete my trilogy of documenting my pregnancy journey.

It feels really good to have short hair and it’s definitely much easier to maintain! Another amazing thing I learned recently is that the American Cancer Society offers 1 free wig for each Cancer patient currently undergoing chemotherapy. I called them up and made an appointment with Sandra at the Healing boutique at Northwestern to pick out my wig. Sandra was so sweet and accomdating for me, she let me pick my wig from the best ones she had.
This has been such a crazy journey thus far with adapting to things I never thought I would have to learn about- wigs being one of them. I am now slowly coming to terms with new changes and realizing with time everything will be back to normal.
