My Model Husband

Yesterday I went to Dallas to take my state board practical exam for cosmetology. The day started crazy as Bryan and I woke up at 4:30 in the morning to get ready to leave. We had to be at the exam location by 8:00 am and we live about two and a half hours away. I had only gotten about 3 hours of sleep because I had stayed up packing for the practical. I was so delirious when Bryan woke me up that I told him that I wanted to reschedule. With a little strong encouragement I got up and away we went. I had to take a model with me to perform a facial and manicure on. I had planned on taking a friend, but when a couple of them couldn't come Bryan agreed to be my model. What is hysterical is that the model has to come in with red fingernail polish and makeup on. I painted his nails and put his makeup on in the parking lot of the testing center. I think I was sleep deprived so applying his makeup was very difficult do to all the laughing I was doing. The pink lipstick was the icing on the cake. I told him that I hope his appearance didn't disturb or distract the other students too much. Bryan was such a good sport about it all. A couple of people have pointed out to me what a good husband he is for doing this for me. My mom even said that not a lot of men would have done it. The test took about three and a half hours. When it was finally over I felt a little emotional and a huge weight lifted. I had finally accomplished something that I had always wanted to do. I now have to wait for the state to send me my cosmetology license and then I am going to start my new job. I am going to work 2-3 days a week which is still kind of crazy considering I will get payed to play. Perfect profession for me!!

Congratulations!!

I really want to see some pictures of Bry all looking like a GirlyMan.

Cute kids

So did they let you know if you passed or not as soon as you were done?

Sorry - I didn't mean to delete my comment - I just wanted to add to it

Congrats Jordan!! I am so proud of you, and I know you will be GREAT at doing hair. I was a little disappointed to see Bryan all dolled up. He's great. I am glad you have such a great hubby. Talk to you soon.

Yes they let me know that I passed as soon as I was finished. I just have to wait for the state to send my licence to make it official.

Bryan wouldn't dare let me take a picture of him. He actually looked very disturbing. It was quite funny.

Congratulations Jordan!!!!
That is all so exciting! London told me you were going to school to be a cosmetologist. I thought that is the perfect job for you! You are going to do great! I am so proud of you and I must say you do have a pretty special, loving, and supportive husband to do that for you. Have fun playing!!
Love ya!!

Bryan what good sport you are. Congrats Jordan. I bet you are glad to be done. I also wanted to see Bryan all made up...you know for bribery or posterity at least. Jordan I am glad you found something you love to do, that is difficult sometimes. Good luck with the work ventures. Ash
