The end, and yet the begining

This day has finally come. My last day as an Artistic Director. Being an instructor/hairstylist has been part of my identity for so long that this moment has brought with it a conflicted mix of emotions. This is the last trip for work I make, no more living in hotels where everyone knows my name. Today is the series finale after a successful 11 year run. It's going to be memorable. It's now official. I'm unemployed. :O I haven't been able to say that since I was seven years old and had a paper route. I'm waiting in the Calgary airport, I'm going home, for good. School starts on Monday. This should be interesting. Stella out!
