Hair Extraordinair too!
My First job was pretty amazing! I worked for myself and mom. I owned and managed a wig store and beauty salon. I made to much money for a child at 17! But I did live at home and still drove the car my mom and dad bought. I did shop, a lot! I had a few dozen great vacations. My reality was not real! But for seven years ... I did it! The beauty salon was not so easy. Really! Adults don't want a spoiled child writing the checks making the schedules and making half of the profit of their work that they went to school for. But the wig store, was like riding a bike. I could do it all day! Some of the clients still ask for me at my moms store. In my youth I just did not know what a great store I had. It came to easy. I closed it and moved to San Diego at age 24. I'd give nothing for my journey but I would open another store in a heart beat!

Having such an experience so early in life sounds awesome! Growing up in Yuma I took many a trip to San Diego and I just love that city. Once upon a time I dreamed of living there. Not sure why I never did it.
What a neat life experience! I have always wanted to be a hair dresser..i settled for massage therapy but i thought coloring hair and socializing would be so much fun! Of course there is always the downsides but i have always enjoyed getting my hair done and thought helping women feel beautiful and special would be such an honor...
Of course i am envious of your flight experience...i am such a baby about flying but i love to take trips...go figure! LOL
I had such a laugh at your blog singing of "no air" ! Too funny.
i totally get the feeling you should check out Leona Lewis singing "Numb" on Youtube i bet you would like it!
You closed down shop and little did you know that in San Diego you'd find the love of your life! :)
WOW, thanks for sharing!
You were so lucky to have that experience so young!
