I just wanted to share with all of you an extremely positive thing that has happened in my life recently. As some of you are aware, I work for McDonalds and we just had McHappy day on Wednesday May 6. As part of our fund raising I promised to shave my head (kill two birds with one stone) I have AA and it was getting to the point of wanting to shave it so that no one would see my big bald patch showing through and it was to raise money for an amazing emergency shelter for women that is right in the small town where I work. My franchisee owns three restaurants and the target for our restaurant was $1900.... WE GOT $2700!!!!, The goal for the three restaurants was $5000 and we reached an amazing $6400.... in ONE day!!!!

Not only all of that, but I had a bbq at my house that night with some close friends and family and they all played a part in shaving my head, including my daughters and we all had a blast and it was an AMAZING positive experience. I am FREEZING cold and have to go buy some toque's, hopefully before they are ALL gone (might have to look on ebay) but I, as we say at McDonalds, am "lovinit!!!!" Thank you to all of you on here that have given me wonderful advice and support along the way. I am hoping that I can pass on my own words of encouragement in the future. .

P.S. check out my profile for pics of "the new me"
