Life is made up of moments. I try not to dwell on the bad, but learn from them, since all of these moments have made me who I am.

Instead, I focus on the good and am working to be more present for all of it.

Summer concerts are already on my calendar.

Should I keep growing or cut it off?

I have never had long hair. It always gets to a certain length and stops working. 🤣

What would you do?

Why grey hair??? I am so glad you asked, Gina! $Why grey hair??? I am so glad you asked, Gina! Here are ten reasons for you. Grey\Gray hair equals: 1. Freedom from toxic chemicals seeping into my scalp and bloodstream every month. 2. Freedom from hours and hours at the salon each month. 3. Financial Freedom. That maintenance was expensive! 4. Freedom from unnatural colors that don’t work. This is what I am supposed to look like, which means my color fits my skin tone. 6. Freedom from damaged hair. 7. Freedom from societal expectations. 8. Freedom of expression. We have choices, you know. 9. Freedom from any worry I might give my daughter the impression unrealistic beauty standards are acceptable. ⭐️I still support every woman though and do not speak out against personal choices. Want to dye? That’s fine with me. And lastly: 10. Self love. Accepting myself as I am is an act of love. ➡️Scroll through for more hater inspiration. By the way. . . I blocked all of these peeps to give them more time to troll somewhere else. 🤣 #blockthehaters #dontletthehatersgetyoudown #grayhairmovement #agepositive$

I am beyond grateful for this community. Your outpouring of positivity and support yesterday takes my breath away. 🙏🏻

❤️Every comment and DM (many from former students😍) mean so much to me and have really lifted my spirits.

I will respond to all when my right hand is working again. 🤣 Stupid rheumatoid arthritis! Typing one letter at a time with my left thumb is tedious.

This pic is from Sunday afternoon- my makeup for the scholar banquet. I am really happy with how it turned out.

Would you like a tutorial sometime?

Last night was very special and bittersweet. It was the annual Scholar Banquet, honoring our summa cum laude graduates and the teachers each of them chose as the most influential in their educational career.

I am so honored to have been chosen and it brought me so much joy to see so many of my peers honored as well.

Having resigned last week, it also felt a little awkward and also quite sad, since I will miss working side by side with such passionate, talented people and will also miss what I loved most about teaching: these brilliant young adults, who inspired me to be my best every single day.

I am so proud of what I accomplished as a teacher and will cherish all of the plaques, thank you letters, notes, drawings and memories I’ve accumulated over the years.

Big feelings today. Big feelings. 😭

I share more about this decision and what’s next in the IGTV video I posted earlier today.

🥰Thank you, @thefiftyist for the #silversisters

🥰Thank you, @thefiftyist for the #silversistershairup challenge concept. I am loving all of the beautiful updos in my feed.

My hair is not long enough for a “real” updo (for lack a better word) so I just use a few gray Bobby pins to hold it all in place and hope for the best. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I would love to see more of you lovely sisters participate. Be sure to use the #silversistershairup hashtag and tag Julie @thefiftyist so she can see you, too.

I’m getting dressed up for the first time in over a year for an awards dinner and I’ll share some of that process in my stories if you want to come along.
