Not cold but fresh…

---

That is how Norwegians describe the weather, “Not cold but fresh.” The high today was 12C (54F) and the low was 8C (47F). It is crazy but I love it. It just feels so, fresh! I bought my first scarf today (well two actually - have to catch up with all the Scandinavians). I look so cute, especially now that I, for the first time since I was 8 years old, cut my hair below my shoulders. I was a little scared at first but this is a brand new chapter in my life. Kind of like baptism symbolizes dying and rising again into a new creation in Christ, I cut my hair to symbolize saying goodbye to the old Brandy. I think it helps to make me look more my age but still cute of course. A Swedish girl at a salon called Adam & Eve cut my hair (just in case you are wondering I did not choose the salon b/c of it’s name but it is quite fitting). I am now sitting at a café drinking some hot tea people watching and updating my journal once again.

Life is good! I hope you are all having a wonderful, relaxing weekend. I will post a picture of my new look soon. Love you!
